He's written a couple of books, successfully coaches groups and individuals and lives across the pond.  He also reads his own top 10 themes like a British "best of" radio show!  Between traveling, or writing travel related books he uses his Empathy, Woo and Maximizer to create photo essays and hard cover books.  How does that happen?  Dive into this episode and find out how those themes got him dancing with a photo subject in a New York City nightclub.  And how the barriers of writing or coaching in a specific format steps on his Ideation and Activator.  Would Mark really die alone on a tropical island?  Listen in to find out.  Also, Sarah and Bill are spicier than usual and it shows in some of the questions!

Are you a leader who suddenly finds everyone comes to you for advice?  Join Jeff Jewell as he talks about his career in banking and how his leadership skills found him at a very young age.  When he realized he was getting good at it was when he realized his time was being used more and more to help others.

Jeff chooses talents over skill sets, and his mature use of the Significance theme explains how some of this happens.  And how does a coach that helps other people tackle imposter syndrome use his Gallup Strengths to help himself overcome that very feeling?  Jump on in to get the answer, along with how a person with high deliberative feels like he's always punching holes in other people's ideas and is it possible to leave Responsibility behind for a high achiever?

Have you ever wondered what a river clam is, or if you should eat one?  Or perhaps how Gordon Ramsey might step on (or get won over by) someone with a high Positivity theme?  Our guest today Gretchen Kelley Bietz answers these questions, along with how Woo, Communication and Connectedness helped her meet 5 women in parking lots years ago, discuss a community need and form a non-profit helping powerhouse.  Although, with all that Woo a receptionist job would also be a blast to have.
