Take Ownership
Discovering your unique dreams, passions, gifts and talents is an exciting and worthwhile journey to embark on. The benefits of doing so are both immediate and long-lasting, affecting every area of your life (see Big Picture), as the process of becoming the truest version of yourself is just that.
It is YOUR process. It is YOUR journey. Not living out someone else's idea of what your life should look like or who you should be, but what connects with YOU. What makes YOU tick. What brings YOU energy, joy and fulfillment. What brings YOU happiness.
Someone or something can give you temporary motivation or inspiration, but ultimately it is about tapping into yourself and answering the questions to who you TRULY are that leads to an ongoing, satisfying, and full life.
No matter where you are in your life; no matter what age, ethnicity, or life situation you are in, at this time you have the ability to live the life you are meant to live for yourself and the world around you.
Live your best life. Discover the True You!

True You
True You, our comprehensive, personalized, and interactive online tool, was developed over a number of years by founder Chris LaNave (see Message from Founder) with input from a diverse group of people (see DA Team). Our main belief is that an important part of the answers to who we are, what makes us unique, how we fit in the world, what we have to offer and how we access our true potential lies within our unique dreams, passions,
gifts and talents, the Core Four as we call them.
True You provides knowledge about the Core Four, including common myths and misconceptions around them. It also takes you through a process designed to connect with who you Truly are at the deepest of levels. This is done through a series of unique and in-depth questions related to your Core Four that elicit reflection and help you connect with and tap into your True self.
True You, the first of its kind, has several advantages:
- It is designed for you to do on your own.
- You go at your own pace.
- It is a tool to use not a program, to follow, so you can pick and choose what you want to learn about.
- There are no preset answers or predetermined outcomes because the answers all come from you.
- It is mobile-friendly.
There are four sections within True You:
- YOUnique Part One is where you identify what your dreams, passions, gifts and talents are.
- YOUnique Part Two helps you prioritize and make connections between your Core Four.
- YOUnite aids you with putting your support team together.
- YOUtilize helps you put it all together; incorporating what you have learned about yourself and what you want out of your life into your daily routine.
True You also provides a multitude of other content and features that will further assist and encourage you along your path, including:
- Identifying and elaborating on other important elements of life that can accelerate your process.
- A place to journal and take notes about what you are feeling and thinking as you go through the True You process.
True You is designed to ensure that you have the knowledge and tools necessary to live the life you long for and desire.
As one user put it, "I have never seen such a systematic approach to self-identification and self-discovery. The organization flows from section-to-section and then realization." Another said it is a "joyful, easy to understand, immediately engaging process," helping people of all ages get to the heart of what they want to do with their lives.
Try True You and see your life start changing from day one.

The following testimonial is from a Lifeshop participant.
"It brought to me focus and awareness to keep a quiet place and to an increasing ability to enjoy each moment. A tendency to act spontaneously rather than react from fear or what other people may think about me. A decreasing interest in judging others. A decreasing interest in judging myself. A lessening inclination to interpret the action of others. Feeling of oneness with humanity and nature."
We also offer a 30-minute pre-recorded Lifeshop, which covers the topics in live Lifeshop, but not the unique learning activities or the preview of True You.
