Welcome to SageGrove
Discover Your Personal Values Ecosystem
A nature-inspired journey to identify and prioritize your core values
What is SageGrove?
SageGrove is a comprehensive values assessment that helps you discover the principles that guide your life. Using nature metaphors and botanical wisdom, you'll explore 85 different values across 10 categories to create your personal "values grove."
🌱 Prepare for Your Journey
Like a gardener preparing soil, take a moment to gather yourself and open to discovery. Trust your natural wisdom - like plants growing toward light, values will emerge.
🧘 Center Yourself
Find a quiet space where you can reflect without interruption. Take three deep breaths and set an intention to be honest with yourself about what truly matters.
🌿 Trust Your Intuition
There are no right or wrong answers. Like recognizing which plants draw you in a garden, you'll feel a natural resonance with certain values.
🌳 Think Holistically
Consider how different values work together in your life ecosystem. What supports what? What creates balance in your personal forest?
💾 Progress Saved
Your responses are automatically saved as you go. You can pause anytime and return later - your grove will be waiting for you.
