The Hello, Personality Podcast
The Hello, Personality Podcast explores waking up to your truest self—your most authentic Self that lives beneath all of your adaptive and survival strategies. Host Leslie McDaniel guides you to connect with your head, heart, and body wisdom, to experience embodied spirituality that meets you where you are, and to practice translating your inner shifts into everyday actions. We'll use concepts from personality type systems and other modalities for deeper and more expansive transformation.
