How to Create a Vision for Your Life (Even When the Path Isn't Clear)
Have you ever had the feeling that your life was trying to tell you something... but you weren't quite sure how to listen?
In this episode of Solving for Joy, How to Create a Vision for Your Life (Even When the Path Isn't Clear), I'm sharing a conversation from my friend Dr. Rashmi Schramm's podcast, Inner Peace and Power.
Together, we explore joy, vision, self-trust, and what it means to follow a path that unfolds one step at a time. We talk about intuition, the wisdom of the body, synchronicity, and why clarity often comes not from having all the answers, but from creating enough space to notice what already feels true.
If you've been wondering what's next, I hope this conversation reminds you that you don't have to see the whole path. You only have to trust the next step.
In This Episode
- Why joy is more than happiness
- How vision unfolds through trust instead of certainty
