In this course, you’ll learn how science, philosophy and practice all play a role in both finding your purpose and living a purposeful life. You will hear from historical figures and individuals about their journeys to finding and living a purposeful life, and will walk through different exercises to help you find out what matters most to you so you can live a purposeful life.

- On Purpose - a graphic novel
Ever felt like your life had lost some of its meaning? It's a feeling that can build up over time or show up like a tsunami seemingly out of the blue. Either way, you can be left empty and adrift. This happened to Vic Strecher when his younger daughter, Julia, died suddenly at age nineteen. On Purpose is his response to losing his daughter...and, for a while, his way. Part survey of current, purpose-related scientific research; part philosophical walking tour; part deep dive memoir, On Purpose leads each reader on their own remarkable journey of self-discovery and renewal. On Purpose shows that self-directed, positive change is possible and that pursuing a self-transcending life purpose is one of the keys.
