Most people aren't lost because they lack direction. They're lost because they've been moving in someone else's.
They've built the career, hit the milestones, done what made sense on paper — and still feel like something essential is missing. Not because they failed. Because the life they built was never fully theirs. Purpose isn't the problem. Clarity about what their purpose actually is — underneath the expectations, the performance, the version of themselves they've been presenting to the world — that's what's missing.
The Power of Purpose is about finding it.
Not through inspiration alone. Through the honest, specific work of identifying what you actually value, what you're genuinely built for, and what it looks like to build a life around that instead of around approval. Wize draws on years of coaching people through the gap between who they are and who they've been performing — and on his own experience of what it costs to stop performing and start building something real.
This isn't a book about dreaming bigger. It's about getting honest. About the values you say you hold versus the ones your choices actually reveal. About the difference between a life that looks right and a life that is right.
This is the first book in Wize's series, followed by Transform & Thrive and Real Talk. Where Thrive maps the reinvention process and Real Talk holds you to results, The Power of Purpose asks the question everything else depends on:
Who are you when no one's watching — and is that who you want to be?
