What is the purpose that guides your happiness and fulfillment? Your stories and experiences impact your why. You’ll discover it through guided reflection and storytelling. As you tell your stories, your “why” will – your purpose, cause, or belief that inspires you – will come to light.
Through the session, we will keep you moving forward on your mission of self-discovery, motivating and pushing through your comfort zone to a place of true Why clarity. Our objective is be a partner with you, encouraging focus and reflection in the midst of your busy life and career. The focus is on refining and using your Why in your personal and professional life, your branding, using your Why statement as a key component of your 30-second intro as well as identifying opportunities to leverage your Why. Our ultimate goal is a “why” statement that resonates within all aspects of your professional and personal life.
With an understanding of your Why, you will be able to align your efforts and productivity with the things that matter most in your life. This focus will empower you to stay engaged in achieving your goals.
You will understand what motivates you and develop clarity of purpose as you define your Why. Through the process, your personal brand will shine through as an inspiration for you and those around you. As a business owner, founder, or leader, you’ll also see parallels between your Why and your professional brand.

I have started applying the Why principals to my business – looking at who we do business with and how it fits the mission of our company. The course has brought clarity to both my why and that of the company.
The Why Discovery Workshop offers something every person and business is looking for: a true purpose. The workshop was based on strategies and exercises that individuals and/or teams can use to discover their motivations and reasons for getting up in the morning. It was great working with Amy and I found the workshop extremely useful. I would recommend it to anyone who is searching for the right job, trying to hire the right employees or hoping to gain a better understanding of themselves and the people they live and work with. A truly inspiring experience.

I attended Amy’s “Why Discovery” workshop, hosted by The Dostal House, after reading Start With Why by Simon Sinek. Holy Smokes! This was so much more than I came prepared for! I found it extremely helpful to be guided through & held accountable to the steps laid out in Sinek’s book. We got a little “comfortably uncomfortable” & Amy pushed us to dig deeper to explore meaningful moments throughout our lives that, low & behold, were instrumental in shaping our own personal “why.” It blew my mind to see the strong connection between my personal “why” & the foundation of my business’ brand. Thanks to Amy’s guidance, & hands-on approach, I’ve found my “why” to be useful in guiding me to make “why-aligned” decisions in running my business. I loved this workshop, I discovered so much about myself in this workshop, & truly believe that “discovering my why” has been a non-negotiable step to building a successful business. Thank you Amy!
Sessions can be scheduled in person or via video calls such as Zoom or Skype. Group workshops are also available. For more information on group sessions as professional development activities or finding the purpose of a business or department, contact me directly at amy@amyaustinmarketing.com
Discovering my why has been a game-changer for me, my brand and my business. After reading the book, I thought I had defined my why. After taking the course, I realized what I thought was my why was actually my how. I hadn’t pushed myself far enough – I felt comfortable and validated so I accepted it as “work completed.” Read “My Why and How” here. Now I have a clear understanding of my purpose that spans my personal and professional life. The reasons for decisions I’ve made in the past now have a deeper meaning and clarity. To develop the most authentic marketing strategy for my clients, I start with why.
