Aligned people
change the world. 

What is the Aligned for Impact Institute

The Aligned for Impact Institute is a purpose-driven leadership and workforce development initiative that helps people align who they are with the work they do. We provide tools, training, and experiences that connect purpose, clarity, and execution so that your daily choices line up with the impact you are called to create.

Our Vision

We envision a world where purpose aligned leaders create generational impact, shaping culture, influencing systems, and building legacies marked by excellence.

Who we serve

Purpose driven individuals

Emerging leaders, multi-passionate creatives, and professionals who are tired of drifting through seasons and are ready to align priorities, goals, and actions with their purpose.

Organizations and teams
Universities, churches, nonprofits, and mission-driven companies who want their people to lead with clarity, emotional intelligence, and excellence, not just check boxes on a to do list.

How we help

How we help you align purpose and impact

AFI offers practical tools and learning experiences that move people from inspiration to structured action. We focus on three core lanes:

Tools for clarity and

focus

 

Planners, worksheets, and alignment tools that help you translate big vision into priorities, goals, and daily actions.

Strategic workshops and trainings


Interactive sessions for teams, ministries, and cohorts that bring people into alignment around mission, strategy, and execution.

Leadership and workforce development

Programs in development that connect emerging leaders and students to real world experience, internships, and mentorship in aligned environments.

The Aligned for Impact 90-Day Planner

A practical tool to help you align your priorities, goals, and daily actions with your purpose.

The AFI 90 Day Planner is designed for purpose-driven creatives, students, and professionals who want more than vision boards, cute quotes, and blank to-do lists.

 

Inside, you will:

  • Clarify what alignment looks like for this season

  • Map priorities that actually support your bigger vision

  • Set focused goals over 90 days

  • Break goals into aligned actions 

  • Reflect and recalibrate with weekly and monthly check-ins

This is not about doing more. It is about doing what leads to impact.

Great for:

  • Students preparing for post graduation and career decisions

  • Creatives balancing multiple projects and roles

  • Leaders planning a new season or initiative

  • Anyone who wants a clear, values aligned plan instead of constant chaos
