What if the greatest strength you have is one you can no longer see, or one you set down years ago?In this Thursday companion to Monday's conversation with Deborah Knight (episode 312), Kavita continues the My Story series with a closer look at the first circle of ikigai: your strengths. The ones that can change your whole next chapter are often the ones you would never put on a resume. Some have gone invisible because they come so easily to you. Others have simply gone quiet, waiting for you to pick them back up. In midlife career and life transitions, learning to see and use these strengths again is what shifts your energy and opens unexpected doors.In this episode, you'll discover:Why the strengths most central to your ikigai are usually the ones you have stopped noticing in yourselfHow anabolic energy, the expansive energy you feel when you use a true strength, begins to draw opportunities and people toward youA simple practice this week to surface a forgotten strength and put it back into use on purposePress play to reconnect with the gifts that have been with you all along and see what begins to open up when you let yourself use them again.Have a question about a strength you have set down, or anything else on your own journey?
