A Life Brief will align your daily actions with your ambition & values. So how do you create one? Bonnie Wan is a brand strategist - she’s spent the last three decades helping huge brands like BMW, Pepsi and Heinz get clear about their purpose so they can grow and innovate. Almost 15 years ago, she turned these skills to her own life when she was going through what she describes as a ‘crisis of meaning’ - it saved her marriage & reinvigorated her career.

She’s now distilled this process into what she calls The Life Brief - a tool for aligning your daily actions with your ambition and values.

Today, she’s going to walk us through the process. Her book is called The Life Brief: A Playbook For No Regrets Living.

PSA: The podcast is now also available on Youtube if you'd like to see our smiling faces while you listen!
