Space for self-discovery & connecting with purpose
Figuring out what fills you up
is the journey of a lifetime.
But it doesn’t have to be a solo trip.
Hi, I’m Stephanie Mari!
I’m a sociologist, teacher & coach.
In my career-focused practice, I help people create more purpose at work.
With Autotelia Studio, my mission is to help people create more purpose in life, broadly: not just professionally, but in the challenges we choose for our personal lives.
Autotelia is a Greek word that describes the experience of doing something you find fulfilling, personally meaningful, or intrinsically rewarding.
Autotelia is what makes your life feel well-lived. It’s the sense of joy, pride, wholeness, and connection you earn through purposeful work and chosen challenges.
Purpose comes in many forms. You can feel it in big ways, like why you get up in the morning or what you’re willing to fight for. It shows up in everyday moments, too: experiences that make you feel connected to your goals, the people you care about, and the world around you.
When we feel connected to a sense of purpose, we tend to enjoy better mental (1) and physical health (2), take better care of ourselves (3), and lead longer lives (4).
I believe that purpose is
your most powerful compass.
It’s your guide to the small things that make your days brighter and the experiences that make you come alive.
