Do You Know Your Core Values 🤷‍♀️

If I were to ask you, what are your values? How would you answer? Do you even know? Honestly, I didn't. And when I took this quiz, I was blown away. It was like I flushed out all of the things I felt were important to me and organized them - like spring cleaning in your head. And I was surprised that my answer seemed to be in front of me the whole time - I just needed to identify it.

Values are those guiding stars that light up your journey. They're the principles and beliefs that shape your decisions, the essence of what you stand for. 💖

To start your values exploration, let's play a little game. I did this a few years ago in Molly Galbraith’s book Strong Women Lift Each Other Up, which you can order here. It’s so good, trust me.

1. Look at the below list of values.

2. Go through and write down (or print out the list and circle) 25 values that resonate deeply with you.

3. Now, this is going to hurt. Cull it down to your top 10. What truly sparks a fire within you?

4. Please don't yell at me, but narrow it down to five – the core principles you want to lead your life.

5. Finally, pick your top three values. How would you rank them in order of importance?

Now, here's where it gets interesting. ✨

Craft a sentence using those three values. This sentence becomes a powerful reminder of what you hold precious. 💝

Take a moment to look at those words. Do they reflect what matters most to you? Would your closest friends or co-workers identify these as your guiding principles?

The big question is: are you aligning your life and work with these values today?

If not, it's not a roadblock but an opportunity. Are you willing to make the necessary changes to align your life more closely with your values?

Values are your compass in a world full of distractions, here to help guide you on the path that matters most to you. Your journey is unique, and your values guide you toward your best life. Go live it starting today. 🧭

Love you. Gotta go. Bye.
