Creating Clarity and Connection by Robin Shukle

An open-ended, self-guided journal that focuses on combating feelings of emptiness through self-awareness and personal authenticity, Robin Shukle’s Creating Clarity and Connection: A Self-Guided Journal to Inspire A Positive and Purposeful Life is a refreshing workbook that encourages readers to define their own path to happiness, as opposed to following other people. Shukle highlights the surprising importance of metaphorical “crumbs,” or day-to-day occurrences that we’ll notice if we start to pay attention, as a path forward to discovering purpose and direction. The book contains plenty of journaling sections for readers, who will no doubt be inspired by the text’s compass-driven approach to finding meaning and creating positive habits. Where other works of self-help might concentrate on common faults, Shukle’s guide is uniquely illuminating for stressing how personal empowerment is different for every single person, resulting in a creative, encouraging, and original manual.
