The Handprint of Identity™ is an identity discovery course designed to help individuals understand who they are today, how their life story has shaped them, what matters now, and how to live with renewed purpose in the world. Using the image of the human hand as a central metaphor, the course teaches that identity is not one fixed trait, role, label, wound, success, failure, or personality type. Identity is a living pattern formed through reflection, memory, meaning, emotion, body awareness, action, alignment, and contribution. The course begins with the foundational Begin Purpose question: “Who are you today?” From there, participants explore the five fingers of identity: self-reflection, autobiographical memory, inner story and meaning, emotion and significance, and body awareness. The palm represents the integrated self — the person’s fingerprint, handprint, identity, choices, and impact on humanity.

Building a community and a cohort of colleagues is the most important thing I am doing every day. At risk of sounding 'begging,' please share my community. My heart is 100% focused on making identity work a core construct in coaching. Of course, it's not the only thing. But how can a couple work on their marriage if their identities are askew? How can you get that promotion if your self-esteem is bruised and your identity is weak? How can you overcome life transitions and begin again if you fail to recognize the role that identity plays in your new life? I recently researched and was able to confirm more than 100 negative emotional states that are linked to maligned identity. Please share with my community and allow me to spread the message of the importance of identity work.
