How to Discover Your True Destiny and Pursue your Passion

So many of us can fall into the pattern of living life by default. We might have a job that pays well and funds what is deemed a good lifestyle, yet there’s an underlying sense of something being missing. Or, we might have a job that simply allows us to get by and that we don’t enjoy, whilst also having an inner knowing that we are meant for something greater. When I talk about pursuing your passion though, this extends far wider than how you choose to earn money. Your true destiny - and what I call real wealth, is about creating joy, fulfilment and a profound sense of freedom in all areas of your life – your career, your relationships, your health and your overall quality of life. 


In this article today, I’m going to share some ways in which you can begin to pursue your passion and how to discover yourself. 


Give yourself permission to dream


Following your passion isn’t only reserved for the ‘lucky ones’. It is available to each and every one of us and the magical thing is that once you are in alignment with your true destiny and become that authentic version of yourself, doing what you love and what makes you feel alive on every level, everything begins to fall into place. To get to that though, you have to allow yourself to picture in your mind what you want to create. To see that it is a possibility is already expanding the energy of abundance and now it’s your job to flow with that and visualize what your life would look like when you embody your true self entirely and begin to pursue that passion of yours. What would you be doing? Who would you be spending your time with? What would your family life be like? What would your income be? What kind of experiences would you like to have? What would you choose to invest in? Allow yourself to have fun and play with this! The more you drop down into your heart and let go, the clearer the visualization will become. 


Consider what you love to do in your free time


Perhaps you’re not sure how to pursue your passion because you don’t know what your passion is? If so, that’s ok. You just have to identify the clues! This is all part of learning how to discover yourself. I’d like you to consider the things you would love to do for free if money wasn’t a factor. Would it be art, cooking, teaching, housing renovation, selling, programming, writing or something else? What type of podcasts or books are you naturally drawn towards? What do you like to learn and read about? What type of events do you wish you could attend but don’t? What did you love to do as a child? What makes you giggle? These can all provide clues on where to start exploring.


Take small steps


Once you have a more solid idea of what your true destiny and passion could be - and there might be more than one, now is the time to create momentum. The dreaming part is important, but what really sets your manifestations into action is by doing. Does your passion factor
into your everyday life in some way? If not, how can you begin to incorporate it in? This is all about intention. Your true destiny is there for the taking and now is the time to allow yourself to live that! If art is your passion, are you intentionally painting or drawing every day? To pursue your passion, it doesn’t mean you have to give up your job right now either. It’s about finding time to do it every day - even if it’s just for ten minutes. When you start to act on doing what you love, the opportunities soon start to follow because you’re connecting to your heart. It’s when time seems to flow by so fast because you’re truly immersed in the joy of what you’re doing. Once you start allowing yourself to follow your passion in some form every day, you’re on your way to embodying real wealth. It will make an incredible difference to your quality of life and build that muscle of getting better at your passion! Perhaps you could even take a bolder step. If teaching is your passion, could you find some part-time work that fits within this, mentor someone or create an online course teaching what you know? 


Create financial flexibility


As I mentioned earlier, it is possible for all of us to live a dream life following our passion but to do this, you need to begin creating a safe financial container for yourself to have more financial flexibility. It’s about reacting differently to your old patterns and choosing a different way. I have a huge number of tips on how to do this
in my YouTube videos but essentially, this is about intentionally setting up your finances in a way that addresses your financial past, whilst taking care of your financial present and your financial future. Creating more consciousness about the flow and energy of your money and setting this up in a way that is automatic so that you don’t have to think about it, gives you more time to pursue your passion and follow your true destiny. To leave that job that doesn’t serve you and become financially free. To discover yourself! Even if you’re currently living paycheck to paycheck, by following your heart and then implementing some financial adjustments and strategies that work in alignment with your desires, you’re on your way to creating that dream life that you visualized earlier. It’s all about living in that high vibrational energy and when you do, things will soon begin to shift! 


To pursue your passion, it doesn’t have to be complicated and the act of doing so allows you to step into the greatest and highest version of yourself. Be mindful of
those crabs in your bucket and commit to staying true to yourself in every way as this is also when you become the most magnetic! Your only job is to allow yourself to explore, then follow those clues and opportunities and watch how things magically unfold!

Reset Your Money Energy for 2026 Every December, we all feel that pull, the desire to “be better with money next year.” But here’s the secret I’ve seen again and again after nearly three decades of walking alongside people from all walks of life: Financially wealthy people don’t just plan their next year — they energetically complete the one they’re leaving. They close loops. They clear emotional residue. They realign their energy field before they set a single goal. And you can absolutely do the same. As I share in The Emotion Behind Money , wealth is never created by logic alone. It comes from managing the emotions behind your money and understanding that money itself is energy. And in Awaken Your Wealth , I remind readers that energetic shifts begin when you consciously picture yourself stepping into a new reality, while compassionately acknowledging the one you’re standing in now. So let’s walk through the simple year-end process I teach my clients — one that spiritually, emotionally, and financially resets your money field for a powerful 2026. 1. Review Your 2025 Wins & Losses With Compassion Before you step into the new year, look back with the most loving, nonjudgmental eyes possible. I call it neutral observation . Wealthy people don’t spiral into shame when something didn’t go perfectly. They get curious. Ask yourself: Where did I expand financially this year? Where did I contract emotionally or economically? What choices were truly aligned with my values? Which ones came from fear, scarcity, or old patterns? In Awaken Your Wealth , the “Accepting Reality and Awakening” step of PACT teaches that awareness without judgment is how we break old money patterns for good. So breathe. Notice. Write it down. No shame. No spiral. Just truth. 2. Forgive Any Money Mistakes Here’s a truth most people never consider: Every financial mistake carries emotional weight and emotional weight blocks money flow. From my work in The 4 Spiritual Laws of Money , we know that your heart’s energy is more powerful than your brain’s logic, and intention is what redirects energy back into alignment. Forgiveness, of yourself, your past self, or others involved, releases stagnant money energy. Try this: Write down any money decisions from 2025 that still feel heavy. Place your hand on your heart. Say: "I forgive the version of me who made this choice. She/he did the best they could with what they knew at the time.” Forgiveness isn’t about letting mistakes slide. It’s about resetting your emotional money field so you can co-create something new. 3. Create an Energetic Closing Ceremony for the Year This is where wealthy people truly separate themselves; they honor the transition. You can create your own year-end ceremony using whatever resonates from your spiritual toolkit. Here are a few ideas inspired by the intention-setting and clearing practices throughout my work: Light a candle Symbolize releasing the old year and calling in the new. Write a “completion list” Include everything you’re ready to release: debts you’re no longer carrying shame over, relationships you’re energetically cutting cords from, patterns you’re finished reenacting. Burn or bury the list This physical act tells the Universe: “I’m done living from this version of myself.” In The Emotion Behind Money , we explore how inherited beliefs and emotional patterns repeat until they are consciously released. This ceremony is your line in the sand. End with intention Close with one powerful intention for 2026, aligned from your heart: “I choose a new flow of abundance.” “I trust that money comes to me with ease.” “I allow myself to receive the wealth I’ve been working toward.” As The 4 Spiritual Laws of Money reminds us: “The Universe responds to action.” Your ceremony is your spiritual action. Ready to Step Into 2026 Aligned, Clear & Empowered? If you’re craving deeper support with your financial reset, join me for my Emotions Behind Money Workshop in January. If you’ve been feeling the nudge to recalibrate your relationship with money, this is your moment. Let’s make 2026 the year your inner wealth and your financial reality finally match. You deserve abundance and you’re closer than you think. With love, alignment & a whole lot of possibility, Julie ✨
