Summary
When you get paid to do something you're naturally good at, life is just BETTER.
It feels easier. More rewarding. More exciting!
On the other hand, working 8 hours a day (or MORE) at something that feels like trying to put on jeans right after you put lotion on your legs is just …. Exhausting.
If that's been you, and you're looking for a life that FITS you instead of OWNS you, I've got something to share with you today.
The key to building a life you love starts with finding out your hidden talents.
You know, those things you're naturally good at, like you were born to do.
Today, I'm going to show you one of my favorite ways to expose those "hidden talents."
So pop in your earbuds and hit play, because today is all about learning the ins and outs of YOU!

| 0:00.0 | I'm out of school, Sarah, no more tests. I get it. And I remember the anxiety around tests and being |
| 0:07.7 | right or wrong, getting a good grade or a bad one. Friend, today I'm going to share with you |
| 0:14.5 | two assessments that you do not have to have all those yucky feelings around, right? The ones that those old school tests gave you |
| 0:23.2 | and instead will light you up with possibility and joy because they will give you insights into how |
| 0:29.6 | to show up as your best self. Once you hear about these possibilities, you will never be the same. |

| 1:36.3 | I think traditional school kind of messed us up. |
| 1:40.1 | We were forced to look at our grades and the ACT test judged us on everything. |
| 1:46.0 | It made us believe that to be at the top of the class, we have to be good at everything. |
| 1:52.2 | And my friend, this is just not true. |
| 1:56.7 | In fact, as your coach, I would rather you be great at something and stink at everything else. |
| 2:03.1 | Seriously. |
