“What’s your life’s blueprint?” It’s the big question about creating a life with intention, purpose, and clarity. Your blueprint is your commitment to yourself—a declaration of how you choose to show up in the world.
Inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s timeless 1967 speech, What’s Your Life’s Blueprint?, we bring his pillars—self-worth, determination, and service—into a framework for personal growth that feels just as relevant today.

Whether you’re rethinking your non-negotiables, getting clear on your deepest desires, or just looking for a fresh perspective, this conversation is a powerful reminder to align your actions with who you want to be. Living your blueprint means honoring the whispers of your soul and trusting that what you desire isn’t accidental—it’s your compass.
We discuss practical tools for reimagining your path, prototyping possibilities, and embracing the mindset of a designer to craft a meaningful, fulfilling existence. Whether you’re navigating a career pivot, personal growth, or simply seeking clarity, this conversation offers actionable steps to move forward with purpose and creativity; inspired by the principles of Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans.
