S1E15: Personality Assessment - An Important Tool on the Journey of Growth and Self-Awareness

Many podcasters and thought leaders are giving lots of air time to the concept of Human Design. In Episode 15, we talk about what Human Design is and isn’t as well as how we’ve effectively used other personality assessments throughout our lives and careers.

This podcast is for you if you believe that:

• Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must.

• Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit!

• It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!”

• There’s more than enough for everyone.

• Your energy will tell you where to go next. Listen and trust the process.

• People are so much more than titles and the boxes others put them in.

The top three tips from this episode are:

• There are many different personality tests. Find the one (or ones) that feel most helpful for you.

• Whether it’s for strengthening relationships or building teams, when used appropriately, personality tests can provide invaluable insights in your personal and professional life.

• Self-awareness is a key component in the growth journey. Personality tests can be an important tool in that journey.
