The topic of purpose is enormously charged, we feel beset by inner critics, doubts, and overwhelm. Thank heavens for Fiona Buckland’s book Find your own path: how to create the life you really want. Like a life coach in your pocket, it offers a friendly step-by-step approach to finding your calling. Fiona is a life & leadership coach, facilitator, author, and speaker who has worked one-on-one with hundreds of clients and lead thousands in public and corporate workshops, trainings and events including the School of Life and the Guardian masterclasses.
In this conversation with Fiona, I ask her:
- Why it’s so hard to find our own path
- How we can track our way to more meaning and fulfillment in our lives
- How we can manage the obstacles that get in our way
- We dive into her creative process, the story of how she wrote the book, and how she’s letting it go into the world
- What it’s like bringing so much of her own story into the public realm
- How she’s caring for herself as this passion project is birthed into the world
If you are engaged in a creative process, you’re likely to find something useful in this conversation. Here’s a tip: we’re ALL engaged in the creative process.
