Next Cohort Begins
overviewThis is not a program about finding your purpose.
Most people who apply already have a sense of what they're here to do. The challenge isn't discovery. It's translation. How do you turn a felt sense of direction into a life and career that actually reflects it? How do you say no to the things that don't serve it, and yes to the ones that do?
That's what this program is designed to do. It is practical, rigorous, and demanding in the best way.
"This program gave me a true understanding of what makes a meaningful life and the tools to make it happen."
— MF, Cohort IIIThe Framework Behind The Program
For nearly two decades I ran a consultancy helping leaders and organizations find clarity about their purpose and the steps required to act on it. In 2020, after that chapter closed, I found myself facing the same question I'd helped others answer for years: What next?
An Airstream journey across America, some honest reckoning, and months of deep work later, I developed the foundations of this program. It worked for me. It has now worked for more than a hundred people across four cohorts.
The framework is the foundation of my next book, Constellation Thinking. Participants in this cohort will receive advance access to the methodologies from my forthcoming book before it reaches the world in January 2027.
"Prioritizing Purpose offered the structural support I needed to make a very difficult and profound professional transition. Michael is an essential guide in these turbulent waters."
— JM, Cohort IIWhat the program includes
Over three months, you'll move through a structured curriculum combining self-guided exercises, group sessions, and direct access to me.
Personal Assessment
Pre-kickoff survey to map your starting point and tailor the experience.
1:1 access
Direct guidance and support throughout the program, plus a closing 60–90 min individual session.
6 Group Sessions
Live cohort calls, 90–120 minutes each, twice per month.
Full curriculum
All materials and frameworks remain yours to use beyond the program.
Peer Collaboration
4–6 structured sessions with cohort members for cross-pollination and accountability.
A cohort for life
Relationships formed in this container tend to last. Past cohorts remain in contact years later.
"I'll be forever grateful for this program, the container, and the connections it provided to figure out how to live a more purposeful and fulfilling life."
— KS, Cohort IVTime & Financial Commitment
The program runs June through August 2026. Expect two group calls per month, plus 5–7 hours of self-guided work on your own schedule. Sessions are live and recorded for reference, but not substitutable — presence is part of the practice.
$4,750 Full program fee. Payment plans available.
If you're compelled to join but navigating financial constraints, contact me directly. Those who pay full rate help make space for those who can't — that's by design.
Applications are now open.
Cohort size is intentionally small. If this speaks to you, the right time to apply is now.

Community Standards
This cohort draws from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and life stages.
To protect the container:
Be present—device-free during group sessions.
Use "I" statements and listen without judgment.
Get comfortable with discomfort. The more you share, the more you receive.
Bring your best self: generous, attentive, supportive.
Discriminatory language or behavior of any kind will not be tolerated.
In closing, if getting clear about what you're here to do and how you get there is something that speaks to you at this moment, I invite you consider taking this leap and joining me on the journey. If you have questions or would like to connect in person to discuss the program in more detail, you're invited to do so at any time.
I look forward to beginning this process together.
Take good care,
