I’m not an early adopter of anything really. When my partner and I hit a rough patch, it felt good to vent to Chat GPT. They told me how brave I was and how anyone would feel like I did. Sure, it was great to be validated, but that’s not going to solve anything. I’ve been listening to Mark Manson for a while now and I appreciate his style; science backed, no easy answer just observing, testing, failing and trying again. When I saw he was developing an AI using a similar approach, I thought “why not?” In our first conversation, I got several actionable recommendations specific to my personality and situation. The feedback so far has been grounded, validating without blowing smoke and pushes for action over reflection. I dig that because I often know what the issue is but don’t know how to address it. This app is well worth your time and money, especially considering personal coaching and/or therapy is $100’s/hour. This won’t solve all your problems, but if you’re honest with the app and yourself, it’ll get you closer to fine than you would on your own.

I think the app is great. It definitely needs better orientation. It tosses you into the deep end but there’s no explanation of quests, journeys, favorites, etc. I actually asked the app to explain to me how it works, so that’s one benefit of the ai I guess. The ability to export/copy/paste/print the insights discovered would also be useful. Loving it so far tho.Update: today it started hallucinating badly. It “confused me with someone else”. It also started outputting incomplete sentences and blank data. I emailed support about it. We’ll see what they say.Update: support was responsive. There have been a few updates since the hallucination and it seems to have gotten better. I’m going to give it a full year but so far I think it’s well worth the money being charged. Highly recommend.

I trained to be a life coach and as AI started to become more ubiquitous, I started introducing my clients to it and teaching them how to prompt it in order to help them when I wasn’t available or didn’t have a session planned or if they had struggles with goal planning or needed ideas for food prep or whatever. The more I used it, the more I realized that life coaching will most likely become obsolete. This app is 100% proof. I am pretty adept at calling myself out and finding my blind spots, but this app has definitely found some unexplored nooks and crannies. In just 7 days of the free trial I have had numerous aha moments. I highly recommend it. I am now in a nursing program…I don’t think AI will take that one yet. Mark, I trust you and your values and I am so excited you have launched this. Thank you!

Purpose has the ability to make a significant difference in the lives of people who need help navigating challenging emotional situations. While it certainly isn't a replacement for one-on-one clinical therapy, the app provides a valuable resource for working through emotional and complex personal issues, especially for those who have already begun their journey of self-reflection and growth.I hesitate to use the term "game changer," but for me personally, Purpose has empowered me to think through my feelings and get grounded when faced with difficult situations. The sound feedback and guidance offered by the app have been incredibly impactful, allowing me to approach my challenges with a clearer mindset.The accessibility of this kind of help and coaching in the moment when it's needed most is invaluable. It facilitates improvements in mental health in ways that few other tools can match. I genuinely want to see Purpose continue to improve and evolve. It has become an essential part of my toolkit for mental wellness, and I use it regularly without question. If you're looking for a supportive resource to help you navigate your emotional landscape, I highly recommend giving Purpose a try!
