What does a purpose-driven life look like to you?

Maybe you think of finally getting your Master's degree or starting the business God has placed on your heart. Or maybe you believe your purpose is to be an excellent wife and mom to your husband and kids. And while all of these aspirations, roles, and goals are noble, they are simply vehicles for your purpose but not your purpose in itself. But that’s not the way culture spins it. 


Culture Says:

“It would be nice to walk in your purpose but girl you have too many bills to pay.”

“Build a successful career now, you can carry out your purpose later.”

“Your passions are your purpose. Follow your heart! It won’t lead you astray.”

“Your purpose is to be a wife, mom, and to have a family.” 

“Your purpose is to be happy! Follow your happiness and live your best life.” 


But have you ever stopped to ask yourself, "What does God say about my purpose?"


So many people confuse their purpose with their career, passions, roles, assignments, or lifestyle but purpose is so much more. These are all ways to carry out your purpose but not your purpose in itself. You were made for more.


Hi, my name is Janelle Alexandra,

and I know exactly how you feel because that’s exactly where I was when I set out to uncover my God-given purpose. I knew that I was called, but I wasn’t sure what I was being called to. Although I was passionate about a few things, I wasn't sure if they were what God was calling me to. So I started fasting and praying that God would reveal my purpose to me. Now, I didn’t know everything but I knew one thing for sure: I didn’t want to wake up toward the end of my life realizing that I wasted it pursuing everything else rather than what God had for me or even pursuing other people’s expectations for my life or my wrongly defined definition of success. It was during that time of prayer and fasting that God revealed to me that my purpose was so much more. It was more than just doing great things or even living a “successful life.” For so long I believed that my purpose was wrapped up in my passions and career. And while there is nothing wrong with desiring a nice lifestyle, a successful career, or meaningful relationships, that is not a biblical approach to purpose. Those things may be connected to our purpose and calling, but they aren’t our purpose in its entirety. Oftentimes we get caught up in the lie that we can only pursue our purpose after we’ve curated successful careers and achieved financial success, so we don’t seek to uncover and pursue it at all. OR We believe that our purpose is one-dimensional, meaning there is only one facet of our purpose, but the truth is our purpose is an integration of being, doing, and living. No part is meant to be mutually exclusive, and if we’re going to live a purpose-driven life, we must understand God’s purposes for us and what it looks like to carry them out right now, not later. That is why I created the On-Purpose Life Online Course: to help you understand god’s purposes for you & the essentials to uncovering yours.

Here’s What You’ll Learn in this Four Week Class

Week 1: The On-Purpose Life

This first week is all about understanding the foundations of purpose and what it means to live an on-purpose life. We’ll be discussing the problems with the world’s approach to purpose and the common misconceptions we tend to believe. By doing this and testing our picture of purpose, we will learn how our purpose fits into God’s master plan and the three levels in which He calls us to carry His purposes out. 


Week 2: God-Centered Sucess 

Does success matter to God? Of course, it does! But not in the way that you think. This week is all about redefining our definition of success to align with Christ’s. In this class, we’ll look at success from a biblical perspective and how we can live a significant and successful life according to the Word. We'll also dive into how suffering is a part of that plan and how it can be used as one of the greatest tools in birthing our purpose and shaping our success.


Week 3: The Seven Life Purpose Questions Model 

Many times we think of our identity, passions, calling, and past experiences as disconnected pieces of our life, but what if I told you that these are the threads that tie our purpose together? In this class, we’ll be going over the model that outlines the seven questions that point to your purpose. These questions highlight the four core directions that lead to your purpose. We’ll discuss this model as well as the role your purpose plays in completing God’s ultimate mission.


Week 4: The Birthplace of Purpose

Before we can discover what God has created us to do and who He has created us to be, we must first understand Whose we belong to. Our perspective of who God is will influence every step we take in our purpose and calling journey. If you want to fulfill your purpose, you have to be surrendered, submitted, and committed to the One who is leading your life. This last class is all about making sure your allegiance is to Him and Him alone.

“When I started the On-Purpose Life Class, I was drained, lost, and ready to give up. After each class, I continued to find my voice and my likes and dislikes —what I really desire. By the end of the class, I was free, enlightened, and happy I had a roadmap to follow what my purpose is about, and how I should travel to achieve it. ”

Shlonda Blackwell

“I enjoyed the On-Purpose Life Class! The lesson plans and homework caused me to reflect on my past that which led me to my purpose with clarity. Janelle has a spiritual approach to aligning women with their God-given purpose in life in a way that allows you to open up and grow in a very personal way. ”

El-Regina Harrison

“While attending The On-Purpose Life class, I learned more about myself than I thought I would. Sharing the space with wonderful people and a wonderful coach made facing even the painful aspects of my life not so painful. I am truly blessed and grateful to have been a part of something so much bigger than myself. I look forward to what’s to come while walking boldly in my purpose. For those needing guidance through Christ to find your purpose, please give this course a try... you won’t be disappointed. ”

Raquel Roberts

“When I started the On-Purpose Life Class, I was struggling with starting my business and felt that I needed guidance in finding my purpose. I felt that my purpose was to help other black women, but I wasn’t sure of the “how.” The most important thing I learned in this course is that purpose is not the same as passion. Janelle’s course was extremely helpful in providing me the guidance to take the next steps in my business. The fact that her course is biblically-focused served as a reminder to keep my goals Christ-centered. Janelle was knowledgeable, relatable, and effective in communicating her message.”

Michelle Anaba

“I absolutely LOVED the On-Purpose Life Class! I went from kind of thinking I knew my purpose to having way more clarity on so much more than I even knew I needed to know about me, my purpose, and my calling. I wish the class was longer so I could continue to unpack it all! ”
