What inspired the creation of this program

When I was 16, I couldn’t bring myself to fully focus on preparing for what, from a Chinese perspective, is often seen as the most important exam of one’s life. Instead, I found myself constantly questioning the purpose of my life. 

This question stayed with me, resurfacing when I turned 35. By then, I was a certified professional coach, had spent 10 years in corporates, and had experienced the ups and downs of life. Yet, I was still searching for answers to the same question: what is the purpose of my life?

At this moment, by coincidence, I came across a passage in What Makes You Not a Buddhist by Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche. "It is not appropriate to ask a Buddhist, what is the purpose of life? A more appropriate question is simply what is life? The answer should be obvious: life is a big array of assembled phenomena, and thus life is impermanent." 

This discovery had two effects on me. First, I stopped chasing the purpose of my life. Second, I became determined to share everything I had learned and practiced in coaching. While I'm aware that this can hardly replace coaching, which is more like swing dancing, a dynamic and interactive process, I still want to share what can be applied without a coach.
