personal journey
One's life path
A personal journey is a period of growth, self-discovery, or transformation in someone's life.
The phrase emphasizes internal change rather than physical travel: Her battle with cancer became a personal journey toward acceptance.
Often used earnestly in self-help contexts, though sometimes mocked for its vagueness or overuse: He described his switch to veganism as a personal journey.
