Strength in Our Weakness with Eric Gee

Today's episode features a story of what can go right when you don't like school. Eric Gee is an author, a writing and life coach, and founder of the Youtopia Project, which helps people discover their personality and work with the strengths and weaknesses within. Eric and I mull over topics as far-flung as holistic personality theory, how we disagree with our negative traits, and the beauty of Abyssinian pottery. REFERENCES: Eric Gee’s website: https://www.projectyoutopia.com/ Youtopia Assessment: https://youtopiaproject.com/youtopia-16-assessment-2/ Follow Eric on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-gee-3565a79/ Follow Eric on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_power_of_personality/ Follow Eric on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/eric.c.gee/ (00:00) - Opening credits (00:37) - Show opening (01:30) - Introducing Eric Gee (02:24) - When boring school subjects make great careers (06:52) - Holistic theory vs independent variables (09:39) - The four packs (15:15) - Behavior vs core life values (20:21) - The sixteen animal personalities (23:49) - Nobody agrees with negative traits (29:45) - Totally a chimpanzee...
