Empowering Professionals Through Tough Transitions, One Story at a Time

I'm Shaté Hayes, a documentary producer telling stories of how purpose finds its way into all of life's unexpected twists and turns.

My own story took me from professional dancer to VP of Career Programs managing global teams, through divorce and multiple relocations, to building The Purpose Post—a community where real stories of transition become permission for others to move forward.

Our documentaries, articles, curated live experiences, and community are for people navigating the messy middle of transformation: career change, entrepreneurship, divorce, loss, reinvention.

We partner with organizations to inspire their communities and work with individuals ready to bet on themselves.

Because the best stories don't start with success. They start with an ending...and what move you decide to make next.
