I have just published a new book. The book charts my life through boyhood in Scotland, failed trainee priest, hippy, given 6 months to live as an alcoholic and drug addict, recovery, return to education to gain a degree and then a doctorate in psychology and writing the master’s course and teaching many of the addiction therapists in Scotland. It is a story of love and loss, of hopeless addiction and miraculous recovery and spiritual growth; how the lowest times in our lives can become our most powerful assets. It is funny, entertaining and, hopefully, inspiring.

In this episode of Unwrapped With Gift, I sit down with author, nurse, hospice specialist, and storyteller Nancy Ensley.

This is the free WHOM Character Intelligence Assessment — a 132-item, science-backed instrument I built after two decades of leading teams. It measures a listener's character across four dimensions: Work-Ethic, Heart, Optimism, and Maturity. It takes about 45 minutes, costs nothing, and delivers a personalized profile that shows people not just who they are, but where their real growth edges live. Most personality tests label people. WHOM helps them grow. Your listeners get a genuinely useful tool they'll thank you for pointing them to — and it's the same instrument I use with Fortune 500 executive teams, so it lands equally well whether your audience is individual growth-minded or corporate.
