What makes some people naturally able to rally others around an idea, a vision, or a next step? In this episode of our Working Genius series, Tina sits down with Jalisha Wynn to talk about the Genius of Galvanizing and why healthy persuasion isn’t manipulation. It’s about reading the room, communicating with passion, and inspiring people to move from idea to action. If you’re wired to get people moving, you just might be Persuasively Wired.

Some people just know. They can walk into a room, hear an idea, or look at a situation and instinctively sense what will work and what won’t.

This week, I’m joined by Jenna Blount to talk about the Working Genius of Discernment, the gift of using intuition, judgment, and pattern recognition to evaluate ideas and help move work forward. We’ll talk about what it looks like when Discernment is working at its best, where it can get misunderstood, and how to work well with the discerning people in your life.

Because Discernment isn’t just about having a gut feeling. It can be the bridge between a good idea and the right decision.

In this episode of the Be Blount Podcast, Tina continues the Working Genius series with a closer look at the Genius of Wonder... the gift of noticing what others may miss, asking thoughtful questions, and helping us pause before we rush into action. Tina is joined by her friend Janice Collazo for a real-life conversation about what Wonder looks and feels like from the inside. Together, they explore why Wonder is not overthinking, negativity, or resistance, but a meaningful way God wires people to see needs, recognize possibilities, and ask the questions that help us move forward with wisdom. If you have ever wondered why you notice things others overlook, or if you love someone who naturally asks, “What are we missing?” this episode will help you better understand, honor, and steward the gift of Wonder. Be who God created you to be. Then do what He has uniquely called you to do. Be, then Do.

Why do some people love dreaming up ideas while others just want a decision, a deadline, and a finished product? In this episode, Tina unpacks the three stages of work—Ideation, Activation, and Implementation—and how our wiring affects where we naturally come alive at work, at home, and in relationships. Through the lens of faith and self-awareness, this conversation helps us value what we bring and what others bring too. Be, then Do.

Why are you the way you are? In this first episode of the Be Blount Podcast’s Working Genius series, Tina Blount introduces the heart behind “Be, then Do” and invites listeners to get curious about how they’re wired. Using Patrick Lencioni’s 6 Types of Working Genius as a framework, Tina explores why some things energize us, why others drain us, and why being capable of something doesn’t always mean we’re called to carry it. This episode is an invitation to stop comparing, start understanding, and discover how self-awareness can help us work, lead, love, and serve with greater health and purpose.

Sometimes the surface of our lives does not tell the whole story. In this episode, Tina explores the providence of God through familiar biblical moments and reminds us that silence, delay, and hiddenness do not mean inactivity. If your soul feels weary, consider this your Red Bull or Alani Nu of faith: God is still working, even when you cannot see it.

Stretching seasons are rarely comfortable, but they may be exactly what God is using to prepare us for what’s next. In this episode of the Be Blount Podcast, Tina shares a funny and honest look at physical stretching, a painful ACL lesson from tae kwon do, and the spiritual truth behind building capacity before carrying more. With scripture, science, practical wisdom, and a few coaching questions, this episode will help you see discomfort differently and ask: what if this stretch is not punishment, but preparation?
