In today’s episode, Kat dives into how DISC personality profiles can become a powerful leadership tool — not as a label, but as a bridge to deeper connection, self-awareness, and team trust.

Rather than using assessments to “box” people in, this conversation explores how leaders can use DISC to understand themselves first, and their teams more compassionately.

>>>DISC is a mirror, not a box
Kat explains how profiles like DISC are most powerful when used for self-reflection — not as a way to judge or manage others.

>>> Start with self-awareness
Great leadership begins when leaders clearly understand their own style, strengths, blind spots, and communication patterns.

>>>Shift from “training” to conversation
Instead of presenting DISC as a formal training, Kat encourages leaders to create open, human discussions about how different styles show up in real work situations.

>>>Curiosity over defensiveness
Growth happens when leaders learn to stay curious about feedback instead of reacting from ego or fear.

>>>Authentic leadership beats performance
The episode reinforces that real leadership isn’t about fitting a mold — it’s about leading from truth, not pressure.

Reflection Questions for Listeners:

• Where might you be using assessments to label instead of to (TRULY) understand?
• How well do you really know your own leadership style and blind spots?
• How can you create safer conversations about differences on your team?

DISC isn’t about control.It’s about connection.

When leaders understand themselves deeply, they create environments where people feel safe to grow, communicate honestly, and lead from their strengths.
