From the Harbour to the Sea
Discovering the purpose of your life
With Hamish Mackay-Lewis
Do you find yourself torn between work that gives you security and work that feeds your Soul?
Do you ever wonder, ‘is this really it?!’ ‘I know I’m meant for more than this.’
The game of success and ambition can only take us so far. Likewise, switching jobs or launching into a new project, course, or role, even ones that feel deeply vocational, will never be enough, on their own, to make a truly fulfilling life.
I believe, that unless we are living in a way that deepens our relationship with not only ourselves and other humans, but also with the Earth, no practice, role or job will ever feel quite enough.
Soul purpose is not chosen by us or even given to us by others; it is revealed to us.
It is a way of being in the world, more than it is what we ‘do’.
I offer guidance on a mature, grounded and joyful approach to following the pull of your Soul’s calling, so you don’t die with the regret of a life unlived.
In This 60-Minute Workshop, You Will:
Hear my story about how I moved from living a life that I was ‘supposed’ to want, to one I actually wanted.
Explore the difference between default purpose, created purpose, and soul purpose.
Learn that soul purpose is much more than what you do, it’s being who you are.
Discover the Five Pathways to living a fulfilled life: awakening, meaning, adulting, relating, and belonging.
Map yourself against the Five Pathways, discovering where you could be holding yourself back and take away some practices to support you.
Experience a visualisation and practise to connect with your truest, wisest and most compassionate self.
Whether you are already at sea or in the harbour, my wish is for you to leave this workshop feeling more curious and inspired about your unique path and with an understanding of purpose as a lived experience inseparable from who you are.
Soul purpose discovery is a lifelong and joyful adventure, in which everything has meaning, even, and especially, our failures.
If we continue to think about our path as ‘what we do’, we will never feel quite enough.
The real journey begins, not just in charting a new course, but in becoming seaworthy and it can begin now.
You will have the opportunity to ask me anything about my purpose discovery course - From The Harbour to the Sea - that I am running, Jul-Dec 2025.

“I came away from Hamish’s session last week lifted & encouraged that I could finally get to the heart of purpose for myself both personally but also professionally. His coaching style is so open & comfortable. I totally trust his process & know I would benefit from joining ‘From the harbour to the sea’”
“I was shown a different world, which I did not dare to believe in during my day to day life, but I could almost touch it when speaking to Hamish. He reminded me of who I am. He made me laugh at the absurdity of some of my self-created reality and he taught me how to question hardened behavioural patterns resulting in a change of my approach towards them. He is very empathic and made me feel at ease in an instance. Our work has led me to a more balanced and “lighter” chapter in my life.”
“Working with Hamish feels like throwing open the windows and letting lots of fresh air and light in! He works his magic through connection and humanity and a quiet wisdom born of a real interconnectedness with the natural world and an eye on the distant horizon. It’s transformative!”
“This process and Hamish’s guidance has taken me from a wreck to a force of nature in only 4 months of intense work.
What I found was someone with boundless knowledge, skills, outlook and practical strategies for growth and self development. But what really allowed me to heal was his warmth, compassion and genuine care for me and my being, in each and every session.
We worked at a depth that I have barely even experienced in my therapeutic practice, both in training and as a client. His approach to ‘the work’ was phenomenal, weaving and moulding his skillset to my arising needs. There was seemingly nothing he couldn’t handle and bring his gift to bear on. As a young man in need of a mentor, a model and now a kindred spirit, I could look for many years and not find someone as gifted as Hamish. Truly, I am not the same person anymore and far far richer for it.”
Hamish is a Purpose Guide™
His journey from serving with the British Armed Forces to his work as a leadership coach has given him a deep understanding of what it’s like to feel torn between the career you feel you should want, and the life that’s calling you to be inspired, challenged and fully yourself.
Sometimes that life is hard to see and the courage to choose it can feel just out of reach.
With an approach that has emerged from indigenous and ancient wisdom traditions, embodiment practices and contemporary psychological insight, he offers guidance on a mature, grounded and joyful approach to following the pull of your Soul’s calling, so you don’t die with the regret of a life unlived.
