How to See Your Strengths

Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast.

Show Notes

You have a unique set of strengths, but you might not know what they are. Because we don’t recognize these "subconscious gifts" we don't know how to flex them effectively. Mark Brooks and David Cover talk about how you can see your strengths and unlock them in yourself and in others.
