The Odyssey Plan: A Powerful Practice for Life at a Crossroad
There comes a moment (maybe you're in it now) when the life you’ve been living no longer fits.
It might not be falling apart, exactly. But something inside you is stirring. A whisper that says:
There’s more. Something is ready to shift.
When I work with coaching clients or lead my Portugal retreats, I meet people at this threshold. They’re thoughtful, wise, accomplished—and still uncertain about what’s next.
One of the most powerful tools I use in these moments is called the Odyssey Plan. It comes from Stanford’s Designing Your Life course, created by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans. This framework invites you to imagine not just one future, but three different versions of your life over the next five years.
And the impact? It’s transformative.
