In this episode, Lisbeth shares how she used a personality assessment tool to transition from a teaching career into starting her own coaching and consulting business. After being diagnosed with cancer, Lisbeth had to reevaluate her career path. She discovered that her strong idealistic tendencies often led to frustration in traditional work environments.

Through a Reiss Motivation Profile assessment, Lisbeth gained deep self-awareness about her core values and drivers. This allowed her to understand why certain situations were challenging for her, and how she could find more fulfillment by creating her own company.

Lisbeth now uses the Reiss Profile with her B2B and individual clients to help them uncover their unique motivations. This allows her to coach them on building more cohesive and productive teams, as well as developing their own leadership skills. She emphasizes that the tool provides data-driven insights, not labels, empowering people to better understand themselves and others.

Lisbeth's story highlights how self-awareness and a willingness to make a bold career change can lead to greater fulfillment, even in the face of adversity. Her coaching approach offers a compelling framework for personal and professional development.
