Purpose doesn't usually show up as a lightning bolt. It shows up as a quiet pull you've been ignoring, or a skill so natural you assumed everyone had it. Jason Donaldson's work through Spirit Guidance Mentoring treats purpose as something to remember, not something to invent from scratch.
Why purpose feels so hard to find
Most people go looking for purpose the way they'd search for a missing object, scanning the outside world for a sign. Jason's approach flips that. In Spirit Guidance Mentoring, the aim is connecting to your felt sense, the inner witness, as a starting point rather than an afterthought. "I serve as an external guide to help you remember your internal guidance," he says, drawing on your own higher self, ancestors and what he calls your star family rather than handing you an answer.
This matters because purpose that's handed to you from outside rarely sticks. Purpose that gets remembered from inside tends to hold up under pressure, because it was never borrowed in the first place.
What the work looks like
Sessions are weekly, one hour, price on request after a free 20 minute intro call. The process works with old thought patterns and the self-sabotaging part that tends to show up right as things start to move in the right direction. Rather than fighting that part, Jason's method is to bring it into safety so it stops blocking the process. Over time, that clears space for the felt sense of purpose to come through more clearly, rather than staying buried under fear or old conditioning.
Purpose and your soul origin
Part of what makes this work distinct is the lens of soul origin, the idea that your essence carries a kind of signature across lifetimes. In a tarot and energy signature reading, Jason has seen this show up as very specific, practical inclinations: someone whose galactic self was oriented toward building and design turned out to be a natural mechanic. Someone else carried what he calls a divine spark, a life-force quality, and became an animal communicator doing environmental healing work. Purpose, in this frame, often looks like your ordinary skills and pulls, just understood at a deeper level.
When this overlaps with feeling stuck or starting over
Purpose questions rarely show up in isolation. They often arrive alongside a sense of being feeling stuck spiritually, or right in the middle of a major life transition like a career change, a move, or the end of something that used to define you. If a tarot reading feels like the right first step before committing to weekly mentoring, tarot for life decisions is a lighter entry point.
What tends to shift
People don't usually walk away from this work with a title or a five-year plan. They walk away with a clearer felt sense of what's true for them and what isn't, which tends to make the next decision easier, even if it's a small one. Purpose, in Jason's language, is less a destination than a way of moving that finally feels like your own.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to already believe in soul origin or star family for this to make sense?
No. Those are the terms Jason uses for his own framework, shaped by his training and experience. The practical work centers on your felt sense and your patterns, which you can engage with regardless of your own beliefs.
How is this different from a career coach?
A career coach typically works from goals and strategy outward. Spirit Guidance Mentoring starts from your inner felt sense and works outward from there, which can surface a different, often more foundational, kind of clarity before strategy even enters the picture.
How long does it take to find clarity on purpose?
There's no fixed timeline. Some people notice a shift within a few weekly sessions. This is ongoing, committed work, not a single-session answer.
Can a tarot reading answer this instead?
A reading can offer a meaningful angle, especially through the energy signature portion where your galactic self is explored. For sustained work on purpose over time, weekly mentoring goes deeper.
Is this connected to Jason's own story?
Yes, in part. Jason has described years of trying to fix himself before recognizing a deeper truth of Spirit, that we are already whole. That shift in his own life informs how he approaches this work with others.
Is this a substitute for professional guidance if purpose questions are tied to depression or anxiety?
No. If a lack of purpose is part of a larger struggle with depression, anxiety or another mental health concern, please also see a licensed provider. This work is complementary support, not a replacement for that care. If you are in crisis, call 988 in the US.
Why purpose questions often surface loudest during quiet periods
People rarely go looking for purpose when life is loud and full. It tends to surface in the quiet stretches: after a big goal is finally reached and feels hollow, during a slow season with fewer distractions, or in the space right after a major change settles. That timing isn't a coincidence. Purpose questions need room to be heard, and a life packed wall to wall with obligation rarely leaves that room. If you're in one of those quieter stretches right now and the question keeps surfacing, that's often a sign the work is ready to happen, not a sign something is wrong with your life.
What gets in the way of hearing your own purpose
Often it's noise from outside: what a parent expected, what looks impressive, what pays well, what keeps the peace at home. None of that is inherently wrong, but it can drown out the quieter signal of what's actually true for you. Spirit Guidance Mentoring works to turn the volume down on that outside noise long enough for your own felt sense to become audible again, which is usually where purpose was hiding all along.
