Seasons of Growth: Courage, Strengths, Reflection, and Alignment

September 01, 2025 • Liz Herrera • Season 10 • Episode 90

Season 10 Kickoff!

In this episode, I share personal reflections on a summer filled with milestones, exploration, and lessons on alignment. From reconnecting with a childhood friend and achieving a 15-year professional goal of becoming a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach, to facing fears. This season opener is about the power of connection, courage, and purpose.

I also introduce reflection questions to help you check in with yourself on what’s energizing you, where you feel in flow, and how your strengths can guide your next steps.

Join me as I launch a new season of conversations with inspiring people who are designing lives and careers aligned with their strengths and values.

Reflection Questions for Finding Alignment

What activities, projects, or relationships are giving me the most energy right now?
Where am I feeling most “in the flow,” and where do I feel resistance?
Which of my strengths have I been using most often and which ones have been dormant?
What goals or projects am I pursuing because they truly motivate me — and which ones am I chasing because I feel I “should”?
If I could design my ideal day or week, what would it look like?
What parts of my current work or life feel most connected to my purpose?
Are my current commitments moving me closer to the kind of person I want to be, or pulling me away from it?
If I removed one obligation or project, what would open up for me?
