The Sweet Spot Of Your Strengths With Carly Taylor

This week Carly explores a more useful way to look at yourself, one that drops the language of strengths and weaknesses altogether. Drawing on the VIA Character Strengths and Ryan Niemiec's work on the golden mean, she looks at how every strength can be overused, underused, or used just right, and why the goal is never simply more of a good thing but the right amount in the right moment.  If you'd like to discover your own twenty-four, the free VIA Character Strengths survey takes about ten minutes at viacharacter.org. Carly is a counsellor and coach who specialises in building psychological hardiness — the ability to navigate challenge, stay engaged, and take meaningful action under pressure. Her work integrates modern psychology with Eastern and Stoic approaches, helping people build resilience, live with purpose, and respond to life’s challenges with greater clarity, courage and steadiness.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
