[Vivian Maher · Rating 3 out of 5]

I picked up Find Your Purpose by Kevan Hall somewhat by chance, hoping it would challenge and validate my thoughts about my already identified purpose. Having spent significant time reflecting on purpose through reading self-help books, attending training courses, and participating in development workshops, I wasn’t fully convinced but intrigued enough on the hope the book would offer much new insight.

To my surprise, the book did include some useful information and practical resources. Its simple but effective tips and models could easily guide someone just beginning their journey of self-discovery. For a beginner, this book would likely prove to be a valuable read.

However, for those with more experience in personal development or those who have already invested time in defining their purpose, the book may come across as too basic—perhaps a little “101” in its approach. While the content is well-structured, it’s not entirely clear who the intended audience is, which may lead to some disconnect for readers at different stages of their journey.

Overall, I would rate the book a three out of five. While it provides solid foundational advice for newcomers, it may lack the depth, theory based evidence and challenge sought by more experienced readers.
