I'm Ryan Winzenburg. I built Foundpath, and I run it from Wheat Ridge, Colorado, just west of Denver.

All of them are asking the same question from different points: what would make this next part feel like mine?

I have two daughters in college, standing at the start of their working lives and trying to figure out what they want it to be about. I also have friends twenty years in, good at what they do, who quietly admit the work stopped meaning much a while ago.

Then a close friend retired. He had spent a career knowing what each day was for, and suddenly didn't. What he asked me for was simple: help figuring out what a meaningful life looks like outside of work.

When people talk about the parts of their lives they love, it's almost always the moments when they were useful to someone else. That spark is real, and most people can't name it on their own.

I've spent a lot of years in therapy and personal development work, and the questions that helped me most were the ones that gave me room to answer in my own words. I tried to build that room into Foundpath.

There's no shortage of frameworks for this, and plenty of them are good. But they're long, or scattered, or built for a workshop. I wanted to pull the best of what they get right into something a person can do on their own time, in their own words, and come away with options instead of a label. That's why Foundpath has a version for retirement, not just careers.

If you're a coach, it's something your client can do at any point in your work together, and the brief comes back to you.

Foundpath is for independent career coaches, small outplacement teams, and individuals planning a career change or retirement.
