The Values Clarity
Starter Kit

Based on the book
The Heart of Values

A free practice from The Heart of Values — for those ready to begin.

Most people have done some version of values work. They’ve named a few words, maybe circled something on a list. And then returned to life more or less unchanged — not because the values were wrong, but because naming them and living them are two different things.

This kit is built around that gap. It won’t hand you a list to circle. It will give you a genuine first step: a real practice, three questions worth sitting with, and five days of values work delivered to your inbox — each one small enough to actually do, and honest enough to matter.

Inside the kit you’ll find the One-Degree Shift practice, drawn directly from Part Two of The Heart of Values — a concrete, low-pressure way to begin living your values today rather than thinking about them. Alongside it, three Soul-Stirring Provocations: questions designed to bypass the mind’s defenses and reach something truer. And a short guide to the knowing–living gap — the distinction that makes values work actually work, and that most frameworks never address.

You’ll also receive The Heart of Values: 5-Day Starter Series — five short emails, each doing a small piece of genuine values work. The knowing–living distinction. The needs–values difference. An embodied check-in. A provocation. And a quiet invitation to go deeper, when you’re ready.

  • The One-Degree Shift practice — a concrete, low-pressure way to begin living your values today
  • Three Soul-Stirring Provocations to help you find what you actually live by
  • A short guide to the knowing–living gap — the distinction that makes all values work more honest
  • Five days of real values work delivered to your inbox — one small piece at a time

For individuals beginning values work, and for coaches and therapists looking for a structured first step to share with clients.

I created this kit because the most common thing I hear from people who’ve done values work before is: “I know what I value — I just can’t seem to live it when it actually costs me something.”

That gap is real. It’s not a character flaw. And it’s workable — but only if you address it directly rather than naming more values and hoping something changes.

This is the beginning of that work.
