Spirit of Purpose

By Teressa Moore Griffin

I am the Founder and CEO of Spirit of Purpose – a company focused solely on helping you LIVE BETTER NOW! As an author, speaker, certified Core Energetics therapist and personal growth coach, I help people get beyond the LIES (Labels, Illusions, Excuses and Stories) that keep them stuck in unhappy relationships, unfulfilling careers and emotionally devastating situations.  


For more tools to help you LIVE BETTER NOW, visit spiritofpurpose.com  or liesthatlimit.com.  Follow me on Twitter @SpiritOfPurpose.  For daily personal growth inspiration, “LIKE” Spirit of Purpose on Facebook.
