get epic clarity of your
purpose & message.
You're confident in your expertise. But when the subject is you, the words get foggy. The Dig decodes your life story into JUST ONE WORD so you can amplify your superpowers and what you’re here to say.
so, what’s “the dig”?
It’s a private, customized experience that excavates your story and your purpose, so you can ultimately build a brand that aligns with your truest self. The Dig helps you claim who you are, what you stand for, and how to convey it clearly–in just one word.
Anthony Trucks’ word is LIFT.

It's something you remember

Purpose isn't something you create 〰️ It's something you remember 〰️
you’re feeling called, but to what exactly?
Maybe you’re compelled to teach or speak. Make career change or a lifestyle transition. Take on a bigger, more public leadership role.
Stepping into a new version of yourself is no joke, and it’s hard to see clearly from inside your own bubble!
Maybe in the midst of all this, you’ve been confronted by something personal that demands your attention.
A health diagnosis, an empty nest, a loss, or an awakening. Something that reminds you the clock is ticking, and the best gift you can give the world is a legacy that matters.
But where do you even begin to unpack this?
there is only one you.
(This is NOT a personality test)
There might be other thought leaders in your space, but no one has your story, and your unique way of interpreting your experience.
The Dig highlights you as 100% original. There is no type, category, or four-letter code that millions of other people also got.
The Dig reveals gems of truth from your own life, your own story, your own patterns, guided live by an actual human.
It’s not therapy, but people cry a lot. Not because they’re sad. Because they’re finally SEEN.
We’ve proven that your unique superpowers can be unlocked (and ultimate clarity achieved) in just a few hours.
i’ve been where you are.
I founded The Dig after selling my first start-up, Girls Fight Back (GFB). During the transition, I was faced with a question that was harder than expected: Why had I actually built GFB? What was driving me the whole time?
Once I found the one word that summarized it all, everything got clearer. My personal decisions, my evolving message and my next steps.
Even after 14 years of doing this work, every leader who trusts me with their sacred story and purpose is special to me. My fun party trick: I remember EVERYONE’S Dig words!
The Dig is my soul work. And I’d love to share it with you.
Over 1,000 Digs facilitated since 2012. One book. One process. One word at a time.

Common questions before you sign up
-
The Dig isn't something you do once and forget. It gives you permanent tools and clarity, consistently revealing more ways your true self can be expressed. It’s. the foundational work that can support all other personal and professional development systems.
-
It’s just a few sessions, plus one short writing exercise between them. However we recommend that if you’re feeling super overwhelmed, you might want to wait to Dig until you have space to be truly open and reflective.
-
It's not simple, it's distilled. We don't skip your complexity to get there, we embrace it all. The word is just the last thing standing after everything else has been sorted. After the process is complete, most people find it to be expansive, not constrictive.
-
Erin has personally led over a thousand people through this work, including TEDx speakers, executives, educators and Congressional leadership. Her team of facilitators are deeply trained in the method as well, and have been curated for trust and excellence.
-
Follow-up coaching sessions are available for $500. There are also advanced retreats, which Erin hosts several times per year. Anyone who completes The Dig will be added to a list for continued study and work together.
Your Dig word, your grounding question, your Dig statement, and a one-of-kind language for expressing who you are, succinctly.
tactically, you'll walk away with:
The Dig doesn't ask you
to become someone new.
It asks you to finally meet who you've been the whole time.
Without remembering who you are, you keep borrowing other people's realities as a way to imagine your future. You keep explaining yourself differently every time someone asks what you're about, because on some level, you haven’t consciously claimed it yet.
Let’s change that.
100% unique
The Dig is not a conventional process or a cookie cutter system. You are a unique human being and you deserve a private, customized experience that honors that.
There may be many people who teach about your topic, but no one has your story, your purpose, your message or your magic.
