Unified In Our Uniqueness: Understanding and Appreciating Our Personality Differences Ep. 40

Flourishing Flame: from Burning Out to Burning Bright

Welcome back! In this episode, Leah is picking up where she left off last time with the topic of unity in our uniqueness.

Last week, she shared the first part of her conference presentation which discusses the question of whether unity means uniformity, and she explains our differences through the lens of a personality model called the DISC model. She explained the first two types, which are more outgoing types, so in this episode, she’ll be continuing with how we can be unified in our uniqueness and explain the more reserved types, “S” and “C.”

She shares how these two types view the world and interact in it, while also sharing how they may struggle and gives some tips for those who are these types as well as some for those who work with these types. She also gives some biblical examples.

Understanding the four DISC types can help us to better understand ourselves and others and how they operate so that we can adjust ourselves and better support those around us.

Leah shares a practical story about how not utilizing her understanding around DISC caused a frustrating experience. She reflects on how implementing and applying her own frameworks around stress management allows her to readjust quickly and regain equilibrium in situations where life feels out of control. If you too are interested in learning about and building frameworks and tools to manage your personal and professional stress, you can check out the Burnout Buster Blueprint on Leah’s website, Leah little brown.com and schedule a call with her!
