What exactly do I get?

A clear, guided path from discovering your values to practical actions that fit your life, all inside the platform. Short, specific steps you complete in minutes. TrueToValues can complement therapy, but it does not replace it.

Is the guide based on real research?

Yes. The method unifies established research on values, motivation, goal-setting and behaviour change into one structured process, and each benefit on this page names the study behind it. See the research behind the guide for the sources.

How long does it take, and can I go at my own pace?

Most people spend a few hours spread across multiple sessions. Pause anytime and pick up where you left off. As life changes, revisit any section and update your choices. The guide adapts with you.

Are there any hidden fees or ongoing costs?

No hidden fees. Lifetime access to the Guide for one payment, or a monthly subscription you can cancel anytime. Every feature is included in both.

Is my personal data private?

Yes. Your entries stay private on TrueToValues and are used for your guide alone. Please see the Privacy Policy for details.

What is the refund policy?

Payments are processed by Paddle, our merchant of record. Paddle handles refunds in accordance with each country's consumer protection laws. You can review their refund policy for details.

I'm not good at self-reflection - will this still work if I'm unsure of my values?

Yes. The process breaks reflection into one clear step at a time with guided prompts, quick ratings, and fill-in-the-blanks. Minimal typing, maximum clarity.

The gap

Not the life you meant to live.

What you find important keeps getting pushed to "later". The people you care about get less of you. Over time, outside demands take priority over your own values. You wake up and it just doesn't feel like your life.

You keep telling yourself "just a bit more". Be responsible. Keep up. Don't disappoint anyone. There is always something that can't wait. That constant urgency quietly becomes your normal.

What changes

Knowing your values is one thing - living by them is another.

The guide takes you from one to the other. What you gain, backed by research:

A happier life

Reaching goals that fit your values brings a deeper, longer-lasting satisfaction.

Supporting research

Self-concordance, goal attainment, and the pursuit of happiness

Sheldon and Houser-Marko (2001)
Steadier under pressure

Coming back to what matters to you eases the pressure of stressful moments and makes you more resilient.

What made a difference for other people

Sohail S.

I got more clarity here than from the books I tried and even a couple of coaching sessions. It's straightforward and easy to follow. More importantly - it got me to act! Also, it costs less than those sessions.
Nataliia K.

Principal Program Manager

Only now after following this guide I saw I'd been living for everyone else and ignoring my values. Now I choose what feels right for me, and I feel happier - like I'm moving toward a brighter future.

Hybrid Intelligence Artist

My well-paid career looked great to my friends and family, but it was actually making me feel empty and drained. This guide showed me what I value most, so I found the courage to switch to a role that fits my values. The weight is gone now, and I'm motivated in a way I haven't been in years.
