15: How to Have a Purposeful Life and Business with Corie Clark

Corie Clark is a business educator, the author of the Simplicity Project, creator of The Purposeful Planner, and voice of Purpose with Corie Clark Podcast. She loves not only helping others find their purpose, but equipping them to live it out and turn it into a profitable business through her Purposeful Business Academy and her VIP membership lounge. It was my joy to have Corie as a guest on Voicing Your Brand today.  Corie has a heart for helping women pursue their purpose with passion and simplicity, and hers is a business that was born from her own need to simplify her life and make room for more purpose. To attach the chaos of her life, she began by taking a few minutes a day to clear the clutter from her schedule, her digital life, and her home life - and wrote about it on her blog. From that experience her book, The Simplicity Project, was born. Then people started asking for a planner. Corie didn’t find one that met her needs, so she created one and called it The Purposeful Planner. Corie struggled at first with being the voice of her brand, but found that just making the leap and taking action has increased her confidence. Corie loves the current trend of tidying up, but thinks the technique of taking many hours to do a task doesn’t make sense for most women. If you can set a timer for 15 minutes and fill a bag with clothing or things you know you’ll never need again - you’re done, the bag is full, and it’s out of your house - it’s so freeing! The mission of helping women have a purposeful business is what drives Corie these days. She says the very first step is so important - it will turn into something great. It’s important to talk about your ideas - when you share it with someone, it brings it to life. You can’t figure this out without taking that first tiny step! Another important component to discovering your purpose is community. Corie and I met in a very supportive Facebook group started by author Jon Acuff - we both agree that if not for that group, we probably would not have stepped out of our comfort zones to do what we are each doing now! Corie says that the most important thing she learned is how important it is to get things out to the world even if they are not perfect - do it messy, but get something out there. Perfectionism will paralyze you. Corie leaves us with these thoughts: when you find something you’re passionate about and you can help other people along their journey - you can turn that into a business. She is energized by helping women discover their purpose, live it out and create a profitable business from it!
