Why Your Purpose Isn’t Straightforward — And How to Feel the Call

If you feel a little off-trend or like you don’t quite fit the blueprint of “normal success,” I see you. I totally get it — and honestly? That weird, edgy, misfit energy? It might just be your purpose calling you.

We’ve all been told that finding purpose should be a neat checklist. Get a degree, a job, a partner, climb the ladder, retire. But trust me — that’s not how the magic happens. The people who truly live a purposeful life are often the ones who listen to that quiet inner nudge, even if it makes zero sense at first.

This isn’t woo-woo — it’s about learning to trust your intuition and your inner energy field. When you tap into your subtle body — your chakras — you start to notice what your body and feelings are actually trying to tell you. And when you align that with your actions? That’s where purpose starts to take shape.

💫 1. Start With the Root: Ground Yourself in Safety

Your root chakra is your foundation — it’s about feeling safe and secure in the world, so you can even begin to dream bigger. If you’re living in fear, your purpose is going to feel impossible because your nervous system is in survival mode. Grounding practices like breathwork or nature walks help your brain switch from “fight or flight” to feeling safe enough to explore curiosity.

🔥 2. Sacral: Let Your Creativity Flow

Creativity isn’t just for artists. It’s how you express your unique inner language. Your sacral chakra lit up means you’re ready to feel again, deeply — and that’s where intuition starts to talk to you. Creativity and pleasure are not distractions — they’re signals.

☀️ 3. Solar Plexus: Empowerment and Personal Power

This one? It’s huge if you’re stuck wondering, “What am I even here to do?” Your solar plexus chakra is where courage, self-worth and direction live. When this centre is balanced you feel confident making decisions that reflect your inner truth and begin to trust your inner GPS.

💚 4. Heart Chakra: Emotional Truth and Purpose

You can think your purpose into existence, but if you’re emotionally closed down — it won’t stick. Opening your heart chakra helps you listen to what you really want, so you don’t chase someone else’s goals instead of your own. Compassion — for yourself and others — anchors the work you’re meant to do here.

🔵 5. Throat: Speak Your Truth

This is where the magic happens. You might have the vision, the power, the heart — but if you can’t express your truth, you’ll stay stuck in hesitation. The throat chakra cultivates your unique voice, so you can say yes to opportunities that actually align with your purpose.

🪄 How the Law of Attraction Helps You Find Purpose

Here’s where the woo meets the science: your thoughts + emotions + actions = energetic alignment. When your energy matches what you’re putting out in the universe, it begins to pull experiences, people and opportunities back to you. Basically? You don’t chase purpose — you activate it.
