This is Part 2 of our Season 1 bonus episode with Maika Leibbrandt, certified Gallup Strengths Coach.
This short and insightful episode explores how your top strengths can reveal the way you think, connect, and make decisions.
By walking through my own top 5 strengths from my CliftonStrengths report, we take a closer look at how each strength shows up in everyday life and how understanding them can lead to more confident choices at school, university, and beyond.
Maika shares practical ways to apply your strengths, helping you move from self-doubt to self-trust by focusing on what energizes you most.
Whether you’ve taken the assessment or are simply curious about how it works, this episode offers a personal and practical look at what strengths can show you.
My Key Takeaways
- Strengths are more than labels – Strengths like Achiever and Focus explain how you naturally like to get things done, not just what you do. They offer insight into how you work best.
- Self-awareness is a strategy – Knowing what energizes you, and what doesn’t, helps you make smarter choices, from studying to future planning.
- It’s about what’s already there – Maika reminds us that strengths aren’t something to earn. They’re already part of who you are and can be used to build clarity, confidence, and direction.
