Know what matters.
Steer by it.
Three guided sessions, a card sort of 80 values and a one-page personal compass that helps you name your priorities and use them when choices get unclear.
Chart your compass · US$21 One-time payment · Printable workbook and cardsBusy, capable — and a little off course.
You say yes to things and later wonder why you agreed.
Two good options are in front of you and you go back and forth for weeks.
Your calendar is full, yet the things you say matter most rarely make it in.
You've heard "live by your values", but if someone asked you to list yours, you'd hesitate.
Three sessions, about an hour each
Session 1 — Take your bearings
Reflect on moments you felt proud, frustrated or fully engaged. Short writing exercises bring the patterns to the surface.
Session 2 — The 80-value card sort
Sort the cards into "always", "often" and "rarely". Narrow down to your top ten, then your core five, with prompts to define each one in your own words.
Session 3 — Draw your compass
Place your five core values on a one-page compass, add what each looks like in daily life, and write three decision questions you can return to.

FAQ
How long does the workshop take?
Three sessions of about 45–60 minutes. You can do them on one weekend or spread them over three weeks.
Do I need to print the cards?
Printing works best for sorting, but there's also a list version you can sort on screen.
Can I do it with a partner or friend?
Yes. Each person needs their own compass page, but the sessions include optional discussion questions for two.
Is this therapy or medical advice?
No. True North is an educational, self-guided workshop. It is not therapy, counseling or medical advice and does not replace a qualified professional.
What if my values change later?
They often do. The monthly course checks and a spare compass page make it easy to redo the sort and update your compass.
How do I receive it?
After your one-time payment of US$21, you get a download link to the PDF workbook and cards.
