Choose Your Own AdventureDearest Gentle Reader (Yes, that’s a nod to Bridgerton.)
I want to share something with you that I haven’t spoken about before.
The messages in these guideposts often reveal themselves during meditation, contemplation, or while I’m out running, walking, or hiking. I intentionally ask for guidance about what I should share with you. While my intellect and life experience certainly inform these messages, what ultimately gets written flows through a quieter channel of intuition and inner knowing.
I know some of you sense this. Sometimes you confirm it by telling me that you discovered an article at exactly the moment you needed it most.
It is my intention to remain open and clear so I can continue receiving the guidance that allows me to write to you in this way.
As I reflected on this edition, what came through was something I can best describe as a Choose Your Own Adventure experience.
You’re about to find a collection of posts from the SoulSalt archives. Each one offers a different doorway into understanding yourself, your life, and the path you’re creating during these incredibly cathartic times. Every article was written to nurture the very best within you.
Every personal growth journey is unique. There is no right place to begin and no specific way to use this guidepost. Simply read through the options below and notice what captures your attention or quietly calls you to explore further.
Take what you want, what you need, or what you’re simply curious about. And if you discover something that serves you, I’d love to hear about it.
After all, I fulfill my purpose whenever I help expand your vision of who you are and what you’re capable of becoming.
The Choice Is Yours, Dearest Gentle ReaderI Want to Change My LifeThe day any of us wake up and say, “I want to change my life,” is a significant day.
We’ve probably acknowledged that something isn’t working, something is missing, or perhaps we’re finally ready to take intentional action. Wanting change is the first step, but desire without action rarely creates transformation.
This article outlines 21 practical ways to begin creating meaningful change in your life.
Believe in YourselfThe level of success you experience in life is deeply connected to your beliefs, not your religion or philosophy, but your belief in your own ability to succeed. Believing in yourself means trusting your capabilities. It means knowing that you can do difficult things and believing they’re within your reach.
When you believe in yourself, self-doubt begins to lose its grip, confidence grows, and taking action becomes much easier.

Be a Tougher, Smarter, and More Badass Version of YourselfThis comprehensive guide begins by asking you to define what being a badass actually means to you.
You don’t need to buy a motorcycle, wear sunglasses indoors, or learn to fight. You certainly can if you want to, but what you drive or wear won’t make you more of a badass.
What is badass is discovering how you want to uniquely impact the world, and then committing yourself wholeheartedly to that mission.
Get the guide here, then get going.
Find Your PurposeIf you want greater clarity about your purpose, you can begin by reading this article or picking up a copy of my book.
From the time we’re about six years old, we’re constantly asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Those of us who don’t know, or guessed wrong,can be left carrying a quiet sense of emptiness.
My research and experience have shown me that thousands of people, from students to highly accomplished professionals, wrestle with this question every single day. The good news?
Feeling lost or lacking direction doesn’t have to be permanent. With the right process, you can uncover the purpose that’s been waiting for you all along.
This article will walk you through it. Read it here.
