You’re at a point in your life — and are ahem, of a certain age — where you’ve checked the boxes: you’ve climbed the ladder, raised the kids, cared for others, been the supportive partner, or whatever other commitments were yours to honor.
Now it’s your time. 💪
But what’s next? You’re staring at the vast horizon of this next stage of life, unsure of where to start or what direction to take. You suspect that the way forward is not linear, goal-driven, or measured by KPIs, but you’re not sure how to pick up the elusive trail.
What you want is to fully express yourself, to freely and joyfully share your gifts and talents in ways that inspire and excite you.
In this post, I’ll be sharing:
- How you can finally make sense of your diverse interests and experiences and a way for picking up the clues they’re giving you about your next stage of life.
- A life-discovery method, called The Mosaic Framework, that honors both the mystical and practical parts of you — it’s like a scavenger hunt for your soul.
Keep reading to learn how The Mosaic takes you from midlife crisis to clarity, no red sports car required. 😉
Your Life Is A Beautiful Mosaic
Imagine your life not as a linear path, but as a beautiful mosaic. In your life Mosaic, all of your talents, interests, experiences, and even your limitations fit together, revealing your purpose and direction.
I created The Mosaic Framework because it’s hard to figure out what’s next! We’re taught to set goals and diligently move toward them. But how do you do that when you don’t know where you’re going?
The Mosaic is designed to clarify and accelerate the unfolding of your purpose so you can stop waiting for someday and live fully now.
The Mosaic aligns with the natural way we select what matters to us and move away from — or are rejected by — what doesn’t.
The Mosaic is as much about unlearning as it is learning. In it, you work with both the practical and the mystical parts of yourself because you are made of stars and any proper process of self-discovery should honor that.
I teach this framework within my Mosaic Way Learning Community, which provides a structured yet flexible process that takes you through the essential steps of self-discovery that reveal your personal Mosaic.
The Mosaic Framework, Explained
The Mosaic process begins with me guiding you through exercises to gather insights from your life experiences. As your coach, I help you understand who you are, why you’re here, and the conditions under which you thrive. Then, you'll experiment with different paths and follow the threads of your interests, eliciting new connections about your life and what’s next.
Your soul does not speak in a linear language, so we must take a non-linear approach to listen to its whispers.
The Mosaic Framework tunes you into the deeper currents of your life and translates that soul intel into tangible action.
There are three parts of The Mosaic Framework, I’ll explain a bit about each here.
Part I: Gathering the Pieces of Your Life
The first phase of The Mosaic is Gathering the Pieces. This is where you step back and take inventory of your life, harvesting the bits and bobs that will form your life Mosaic.
During this phase, you'll engage in exercises, which I call Mosaic Missions, designed to help you identify the diverse pieces of your life's Mosaic. These pieces could be experiences, skills, interests, or even seemingly random events that have shaped who you are.
Once you gather these pieces, you’ll create a physical representation of your Mosaic, known as your Mosaic Life Map. This map isn't a newfangled vision board; it's a powerful tool for deeper self-discovery.
After mapping out the pieces of your life, you'll start to see how they fit together, forming a cohesive image of you. This process fosters a sense of clarity and direction, laying the foundation for your next steps.
By the end of this phase, you'll have a clearer understanding of who you are and what truly matters to you, paving the way for meaningful experimentation and new insights in the stages to come.
Part II: Following the Threads
The second phase, Following the Threads, is where the magic of experimentation begins. 💫
Now that you have your Mosaic Life Map, it's time to explore and play with the threads that catch your interest. This isn't about figuring everything out right away; it's about staying curious and open to what feels exciting and meaningful.
Think of it as a series of mini-adventures where each experiment provides valuable insights and delightful new ideas, building positive momentum along the way.
In this phase, I'll guide you through exercises designed to help you follow these threads with intention and curiosity. We'll embrace a mindset of exploration, letting go of the need to label experiences as successes or failures. Instead, we'll cultivate curiosity and resilience, allowing you to navigate challenges with creativity and grace.
As you follow these threads, you'll notice patterns and connections emerging, leading you closer to a path that feels true to who you are. This phase is about enjoying the journey, trusting that each step brings you closer to a life of purpose and fulfillment.
Part III: Making New Connections
The third phase, Making New Connections, is where everything starts coming together.
As you follow the threads of your interests, you'll naturally begin to make new connections and see possibilities that you couldn’t perceive before.
This alchemical process leads to those "aha" moments that feel like everything is clicking into place.
But it's about more than just seeing the pieces fit: it's about experiencing a deeper alignment with your true self and your life's purpose.
In this phase, synchronicities abound, giving you signs that you’re on the right track.
We'll focus on trusting your natural rhythms and ways of being, knowing that your way is exactly the right way.
You'll find yourself enjoying life more fully, without the pressure of having to know every detail of your path. Instead, you'll discover the joy of exploration and the satisfaction of feeling connected to your purpose.
The Mosaic Life Map you've created will continue to guide you, reminding you that every piece of your journey has value and meaning.
Cassie Only Knew What She Didn’t Want
Cassie joined the Mosaic Way Learning Community feeling lost and overwhelmed after the breakup of her long-term relationship. Unsure where to start at age 55, she only knew what she didn’t want.
As Cassie began creating her Mosaic Life Map, she uncovered the things that made her happy after so many years of focusing on someone else’s needs. She started remembering who she is.
She embraced daily experiments to follow these new threads and was delighted as she received more information about her new life, including the new friendships and community she’d been craving.
Then Cassie had a big aha: She started seeing her life as an ongoing adventure versus a destination to strive toward.
Cassie loved how fun and creative the Mosaic tools were and how they transformed her perspective, rippling further into her life than she expected. Cassie now sees her path with excitement and clarity, embracing each day as a new adventure along with her sweet pup Lago.
The Mosaic Is Soulful + Practical
The Mosaic Framework differs from traditional career coaching and self-help by taking an approach that’s soulful and practical. You need both elements to blaze a new life trail.
Unlike conventional methods that rely on rigid structures and one-size-fits-all solutions, The Mosaic encourages you to loosen up and trust the journey.
This method elicits your deepest desires and equips you with concrete advice and tools to bring them to life, so you can create a personalized path that aligns with who you are.
By adopting a Mosaic Maker's approach, your life opens up for you, the path that once felt so opaque becomes clear. You stop worrying about 'there' so much because you’re having a blast right here, right now.
Purpose work can be incredibly vulnerable, and that's why having handy tools and consistent support is crucial to keep you from bailing out before the breakthrough. You also need a community of fellow travelers who will help you recognize your greatest gifts, hold you up during tough times, and cheer you on as you take new risks.
This blend of soulful exploration and practical support makes The Mosaic Way Learning Community effective and fun.
