Do you invest in your own personal development? People tend to land on either end of the spectrum when it comes to a personal growth plan, it is a nice idea but I don't need it, or I don't have the time or money. There are those of us who are ‘forced’ to take part … Continue reading Invest in your personal development, even during a pandemic
Using the MBTI helps you help others
How do you help others by helping yourself? That's a major part of personal development. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a proven and accessible tool for learning about yourself and how you interact with others. It is helpful for you as an individual but is even better to work through with others! You can … Continue reading Using the MBTI helps you help others
Working through tough answers
Did you ask yourself the 3 tough questions I asked earlier? Or do you prefer your current trajectory? We often choose the current trajectory because it is the one we are on. Not because we have actively chosen it. We may have struggled to achieve at one time, maybe overcame a crisis, and now we … Continue reading Working through tough answers
My first MBTI workshop by Zoom!
Yes, you heard me right, I finally got the opportunity to go through my MBTI assessment with a group via a video platform! I was a little worried about how I would convey different thoughts and activities for individuals to discover their type, but it came together. It actually forced me to improve on my … Continue reading My first MBTI workshop by Zoom!

Are you productive?
I love taking assessments! I am also a skeptical person, so maybe I am just trying to find one that is wrong or I enjoy the surprise at the end. Here's a great little assessment I found from Harvard Business Review, which aligns very well with the fourth 'letter' of your Myers-Briggs type. I am … Continue reading Are you productive?
Thank you Little Grand!
The workshop may have been small, but the sharing was deep! I had yet another opportunity to share my living better together workshop, discussing communication and relationship-building within families and communities. We had a little trouble getting word out, but once the right people were on the case everything moved nicely! Many thanks to those … Continue reading Thank you Little Grand!
Do you suffer from ‘contemptible behaviour’?
"You may have heard that I'm a bit of an a**hole, and I'm not denying it!" (Quote from a new general manager being introduced) This term is used often nowadays, both in lighthearted contexts and as a source of pride for people who suffer from 'contemptible behaviour'. (Source: English Language & Usage) I like that … Continue reading Do you suffer from ‘contemptible behaviour’?
Thank you Spartans!
Another great workshop with the Trinity Western University women's basketball team is in the books! To think, our time was nearly cut in half due to a delayed flight. But isn't that often how the best laid plans usually go? We have the perfect formula set in motion, and then all the variables of life … Continue reading Thank you Spartans!
So why did you choose the MBTI?
“So why did you choose the MBTI?” (This was originally posted as part of a 'Thank You' post earlier this year.) That is a question I get from time to time when I talk shop with people about personality and social interaction. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator occasionally has its detractors online. I recently listened to … Continue reading So why did you choose the MBTI?
Great Learning and Growing Experiences!
Today marks 2 years since I ventured out with Lead Freely. Just over 2 years ago I finished my certification to be a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) practitioner. It marked the beginning of new things...I hoped. 2016 was a rough year to say the least. I finished my days at a local church in an … Continue reading Great Learning and Growing Experiences!
Different types of goal setting
And you could add, "...for different types of people." One of the areas of my MBTI team sessions is the last dichotomy to compare, the part about how others see us. It especially relates to completing projects and the way we order our work. That means it speaks to our use of time. And that … Continue reading Different types of goal setting
