A meaningful life is when you connect with the world around you in heartfelt and significant ways.
And the most important connection of all is with yourself—connecting with your heart, your aspirations, your passions, your soul.
That is the starting point for living a good life. But it’s only the beginning.
A whole world awaits your deeper connections—the world you inhabit. Your family. Your work. Your community. Your society and country. Indeed the entire planet. But even more than that—the entire universe. For you were not born into this world, you were born out of this world.
You and your world are not two, but one. You and your world are intimately connected by default, by simply being alive.
The good news is you can make those connections better. Why would you want that? So you can life a happier and more fulfilling life by connecting with yourself and your world in more authentic ways.
This is what we help people do: Connect with themselves, and connect with their world, in order to live a better life.
In truth you are already living a meaningful life through the many ways you already connect with the people and things in your world. That’s what humans do. We find meaning in our connections, which are everywhere. The question is, what can you do to feel more connected? Connected at a deeper level. What does that mean? A gut-felt knowing that this is the real you connecting to what’s available in your world in ways that are deeply satisfying, deeply meaningful.
While we are human-beings and not human-doings, we all want to be ‘doing’ something we love, something that makes us feel good about ourselves, something worthwhile.
We want to get out of bed in the morning knowing that what we’re going to do today matters.
We want to feel alive and inspired. We want to have purpose and live a meaningful life.

Start uncomplicating your life now. People who have clear sense of purpose live happier, longer, healthier lives. But studies show that only 1 in 4 people know their purpose! Unbelievable, but true.
Knowing your purpose in life is one of the single most effective ways to live a life that matters, that lights you up and inspires you.
At Greater Meaning we believe everyone should be able to clearly articulate their purpose in life. It makes everything so much easier.
Change is accelerating and the future is uncertain.
One of the huge benefits of purpose is that it allows you to surf the winds of change because you have a centre that is unwavering, but adaptable. Knowing your purpose is like having your own True North - providing clarity and direction, like an aspirational guide for your life. It helps you know what you want, and what you don’t. It keeps you on a path towards realizing your potential, making sense of who you are as a whole person, and how to show up in the world.
Live longer, make more money and sleep better at night.
As supported by science, the benefits and outcomes of living a life of purpose are astonishing. People who know their purpose tend to lead happier, healthier, and more fulfilling lives. These are just a few of the good reasons why you really need to know your purpose in life!
So what are you waiting for?
Do the one thing certain to transform your life into one of meaning and joy.

What others are saying …
“Reconnected with who I really am”
"The years with Covid made the lines between work and home increasingly blurred. I was definitely getting caught up in a never-ending daily routine. This course gave me the chance to slow down and turn my focus inward. I needed that. By exploring my life more fully, my core values, and identifying my passions and gifts, I became reconnected with who I really am and what really matters most to me."
~ Sam J
“Gave me a new perspective”
"If you don't know where you're going in life, this course is a great place to figure that out! I thought I had a fairly good idea where I was headed, but It gave me the tools to focus on getting there even faster. And now I also have a new perspective on my journey of self-discovery."
~ Matt S
“Great for couples to do together!”
"We really enjoyed taking this course as a couple. An enlightening process! With an element of accountability, we were able to explore new ideas together and support each other in the process. We discovered new aspects of ourselves and each other - a great way to explore new depths of our relationship and better understand our differences. I think we got to love each other a little bit more in this course. Thanks for that!"
