"You like to explain, to describe, to host, to speak in public, and to write...Ideas are a dry beginning. Events are static. You feel a need to bring them to life, to energize them, to make them exciting and vivid. And so you turn events into stories and practice telling them. You take the dry idea and enliven it with images and examples and metaphors." - pg. 90 of Now, Discover Your Strengths (Buckingham & Clifton)

Does this sound like you...?

Adult interaction is still important!

One of my Communication friends has moved several times. She shared with me that being a stay-at-home Mom gives her the time to stay connected with old friends, something working Moms really struggle with.

As for her local friendships, she started a book club (one that actually has to turn people away because it has become so popular) as a way to share her thoughts and stay connected with adults on everything from fiction to self-help books.

One of these days I'm going to channel my Achiever theme to getting the book read in time to actually attend one of the meetings...I hear they are big fun! Maybe I'll even lobby for one of the Gallup books to be highlighted to share this cool StrengthsFinder tool with more women!
