Imagine waking up feeling invigorated every day.

Reconnect to your purpose and find fulfillment at work.

Welcome to Lived & Loved.

Use the Lived and Loved Calculator to understand your relationship between work and purpose.

Fulfillment is not one-size-fits-all.

This first look at purpose identifies where you land on the spectrum — from complete separation of work and purpose to complete overlap. This gives you a starting point to decide if you want to make a pivot to a new relationship.

WHAT WE DO

At Lived and Loved, we help mid-career professionals reconnect work and purpose.

We ask great questions, help you think differently, and build a plan to get you from here to there.

We want you to wake up every day feeling confident in your purpose and truly fulfilled.

WHY WE DO IT

We want to build a world where professionals feel connected to their work.

Many people say:

I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.

This points to a distant, more purposeful future out there.

Too many people are waking up on Monday, dreading the start of the work week.

At Lived and Loved, we want to change this dynamic. It’s time to wake up excited each day.

Hi, I’m Katie, founder of Lived and Loved.

I unlocked my purpose with story.

Writing and sharing my purpose story was how I found my footing and remembered who I was after my sister died.

When I faced a career crossroads, it helped me discover my next steps and move forward with confidence.

Uncovering your purpose story can change your life. I can’t wait to share this journey with you.

We specialize in purpose.

In the midst of automation, remote work, and separation - our purpose stories are what connect us.

They help us see our place in the world.

They make a memorable impression in a crowded job market.

And they can create moments of engagement with our networks.

No matter where you are on your journey, we are passionate about uncovering your purpose story and fueling your success.

  • "The questions Katie asks encourage careful reflection and honesty with oneself"

  • "it will start you on a journey of introspection, self-love and gratitude for your life’s journey"
