Explore the whispers of your soul and uncover the pathways to your unique contribution.
The Compass Within invites you to embark on an intimate journey of discovery, reflection, and connection. A calling is not simply a job or a singular purpose; it's an evolving dance between who you are, the gifts you hold, and the impact you wish to weave into the world. These cards serve as a companion, offering prompts that encourage you to listen deeply, attune to your inner wisdom, and illuminate the next steps on your path.
This deck is rooted in the values of connection, care, and contribution. It encourages you to approach the process with curiosity, compassion, and openness. Your calling is not fixed but fluid, evolving as you grow and navigate the unfolding chapters of your life.
"The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away." – Pablo Picasso
Who These Cards Are For
This deck is for dreamers, seekers, and doers—leaders, changemakers, and communities yearning for clarity and connection. Whether you're navigating a transition, designing your next chapter, or seeking deeper alignment with your purpose, these prompts will guide you toward insights, actions, and a greater sense of belonging.
The Ten Dimensions
- Life’s Tapestry: Reflect on the patterns in your personal narrative. What recurring themes or pivotal moments reveal your deeper values and purpose?
- Anchored in Values: Identify the core values that guide your decisions. How do they shape your sense of calling?
- Energy and Flow: Notice when you feel most alive and in flow. What activities make you lose track of time?
- Inner Wisdom: Cultivate stillness to listen to your intuition. What is the quiet voice within you urging you toward?
- Belonging and Contribution: Explore your connections to community and the ways you contribute to the greater good.
- Expanding Possibilities: Stay curious and open to how your calling evolves. What are you ready to explore or try?
- Rewriting the Script: Challenge the limiting beliefs that hold you back. What new stories can you tell about yourself?
- The Mirrors Around You: Seek feedback from trusted voices. What strengths or gifts do others see in you that you may overlook?
- Following Joy: Let joy be your compass. What lights you up and fills you with energy?
- The Courage to Experiment: Embrace trial and error. What bold steps can you take to explore your calling?
Each dimension explores a key aspect of calling, enriched with recent research and neuroscience insights that highlight its importance. Each includes nine prompts, three for each level of difficulty:
Level 1: “Opening the Door” (Surface-Level Prompts)
These prompts are designed to ease people in, inviting reflection with minimal vulnerability. Think of this as a way to break the ice and create a sense of safety.
Level 2: “Stepping In” (Moderately Vulnerable Prompts) At this level, prompts encourage deeper self-awareness and insight, though they remain accessible and non-threatening.
Level 3: “Diving Deep” (Intimate, Highly Vulnerable Prompts)
These prompts are for spaces where trust is well-established. They open the door to vulnerability and invite people to share aspects of their inner world.
These cards are offered from a spirit of generosity.
We believe in creating spaces where value flows freely, guided by trust & shared purpose. Instead of a fixed fee, we invite you to contribute an amount that feels meaningful and generous to you—reflecting the value you received, the impact you believe this work can have in the world, and your unique circumstances.
