In this episode, Jennifer interviews Michelle Bentham, founder of Blooming Inspired Network and host of Blooming Inspired Podcast. Today, they talk about how Michelle began to realize that personality tests like the DISC or Enneagram assessments and Strengths Finders don't really define who she is, but rather help her to become more self-aware. The most important thing to realize is that we are unique in how we were created but who we are is more about discovering who Jesus is and how He wants to express Himself through us. Christ in YOU is the hope of glory! More about Michelle: Michelle loves Jesus! As a wife, mother, daughter, friend and ministry leader - Michelle seeks to connect people to God's heart through creative expression. She is passionate about seeing women walk in their role and reign in God's Kingdom. As a prophetic artist she paints pictures that resonate with the hearts and minds of women as she expresses God's word and her prayers through visual images. As an Executive Coach she uses creativity and intuition to help individuals take well-thought out steps of action toward their desired goals -- helping them reach their unlimited potential. She recently joined The John Maxwell Team as a certified Speaker, Trainer, Teacher & Coach. When she is not changing the world through ministry, art or coaching, she is at home with her husband, #TheFisherman, on the lake in Granbury, TX.
