KNOWING • Part 1: Understanding Your Core Values
Congrats!
You Have Met Your First Milestone
The Foundation of Self
You’ve taken your first steps into a story that matters—your own.
In this opening chapter, you began the meaningful work of knowing yourself, not as someone simply moving through life, but as someone shaping it with clarity and intention.
Clarifying Core Values
You started by turning inward. Through reflection, you named what truly matters. These values are more than preferences. They are your inner compass, pointing you toward the good you seek to live by.
Understanding the Integrated Self
You explored what it means to be whole, physical, psychological, and perceptive. This integration gave you a fuller picture of the many parts that make you who you are.
Call to Action
Let what you have discovered guide you, not just in moments of reflection, but in the decisions that shape your everyday life. You have the insight to move forward with intention. The work of knowing yourself is not just about understanding. It is about aligning your life with what matters most.
Reflecting on Shaping Moments
You revisited defining experiences, not just to remember, but to uncover. These memories revealed turning points and traits that continue to inform who you are becoming.
Recognizing Core Beliefs
You uncovered the internal narratives shaping your identity. These beliefs, some empowering, some limiting, revealed the lenses through which you interpret your life.
Examining Formative Experiences
You examined your early years to better understand how your worldview was formed. By bringing curiosity to these foundations, you opened the door to healing and reframing.
Reflection Question
Where in your life are you ready to live more aligned with your core values, and what might shift if you did?
Exploring Core Needs through Compassionate Curiosity
You named your core needs, not as flaws to fix, but as human truths to tend. The needs for safety, love, and capability are not weaknesses. They are your foundation. The work continues. But so does the clarity. So does the growth. So does the hope. You are not behind. You are becoming.
