Life Mission: A Living Conversation
Even if we don't fully know our life mission, just being in the conversation means we're on the path of it. It’s not a one-and-done achievement; it's an evolving journey that deepens and transforms us.
For thousands of years, people have wondered:
- Why am I here?
- What am I here to do?
- Who am I here to become?
These questions aren’t obstacles to overcome—they are doorways into a greater sense of meaning.
Through Caravan of Remembering, a process is offered that will help you be clear on your 'why' even as you move through life changes and come to new cross roads. This will make it easier to make new kinds of choices and still feel meaning in your life.
The Golden Thread
Throughout our lives, there are moments that we give meaning to and those moments then stay with us. As children, we often express something of our inherent nature even if we don't fully recognize it at the time. The Golden Thread of life mission contains all of our moments of recognition of something that had a deeper meaning, pointing to our unique blueprint. We can begin to connect with it, and let it inspire us in navigating the landscape set before us.
Caravan of Remembering helps you connect to the Golden Thread weaving through your life and learn to access the inspiration, inner guidance and authenticity that naturally begins to open in the process.

Your Guide: Carissa Kazyss
Our sense of our life mission is our greatest source of courage. ~ The Caravan of Remembering
A Lifelong Quest for Life Mission
Carissa has been asking the question of life mission for much of her life. Like many seekers, she followed paths she thought she should—earning multiple degrees, stepping into activism, striving to meet the world’s urgent needs. Yet, something was missing. She began inquire inside more deeply and sincerely about her unique life mission expression.
The Breaking Point: A Shift in Perspective
A turning point came when she realized that her career path was taking her in a direction that was no longer calling her in the same way. She noticed from her training with Daniel Goodenough on life mission, that a more integrated path was calling, and 25 years of identity began to peel away. It was an incredible moment of crisis, and out of it birth a new, emergent opening based on transformation from within.
From Seeking to Guiding
Carissa began working with individuals, drawing on her Masters in Integral Psychology, and when The Caravan of Remembering emerged, she felt a deep call to participate in its unfolding. She understands the uncertainty of transition—where the question of "what next" seems unanswerable, and in the unknown.
Navigating Change: Finding the Golden Thread
Having moved multiple times as a child, navigated the loss of a parent, and shifted a career trajectory towards greater alignment, she knows the disorientation of change. But she also knows the golden thread that runs through it—the inner place of knowing that, once found, stays with us.
It is the nature of seeds to grow according to their destiny. An acorn will grow into an oak tree and not a fig tree, a call it is designed to answer. ~ The Caravan of Remembering
