What is the definitive guide to finding purpose and fulfillment by Brian D Smith?

I wish I could point you to one definitive guide I’ve written with that exact title, but I haven’t published a single “official” book or course called “The Definitive Guide to Purpose and Fulfillment” (at least not yet—good idea, though).

My core guidance on purpose and fulfillment shows up in a few places:

1. My GEMS framework: Gratitude, Exercise/Sleep, Mindfulness, Self-care
2. My writing at grief2growth.com and my Substack, where I talk about purpose after loss
3. Conversations like the one with Natalie Sudman, where we explore purpose as curiosity, exploration, and enjoying the ride, not just achieving goals

If you’d like, I can sketch a simple step-by-step “Brian-style” purpose-and-fulfillment roadmap for where you are in life right now.

What’s the main area you’re hoping to find more purpose in—work, relationships, or life after a loss?
