This episode is for the skeptics out there, you know who you are… You don't believe any assessment, including CliftonStrengths®, can really make a difference in how you show up as a leader. If that's your thought, please listen up!
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- Why CliftonStrengths® is really different from any other assessment out there. (Tom was a huge skeptic!)
- How your top talents might be a getting in your way as a leader, or a spouse, if you aren't careful. Every talent comes with a caution sign!
- Why, as a leader, it's important to understand your own strengths and the talents of the people you lead!
Please note – we say in the show that someone once said Tom was “as calm as a cucumber” on a fire scene what we meant to say was “cool as a cucumber”

Sheri Miter is a serial entrepreneur. Her first business was selling painted rocks to neighbors when she was 7! This entrepreneurial spirit led her to many failures but also some huge successes, such as a Chimney Cleaning business with her husband Tom, a professional firefighter, and eventually a business as a Mary Kay sales director. While in Mary Kay, Sheri led her team to six-figure years multiple times, and YES, she drove the iconic pink Cadillac for part of her career!
Despite her success as a Sales Director in Mary Kay, Sheri found herself at a crossroads after 25 years. She began to question if this was the path she truly wanted for the next decade of her life. Even after achieving her best year, she felt a sense of weariness and asked herself, 'Is it ever going to be enough?' This internal struggle led her to a brave decision- to step away from her role as a Sales Director and embark on a new journey. This journey led her to become a Gallup Certified CliftonStrengths Coach. Today, Sheri has crafted a life she loves, assisting other highly successful women to discover their 'what’s next' career. She is passionate about working with women who have achieved success making the money, but are now eager to make an impact by unleashing their God-given strengths and embracing their true calling!
When Sheri isn’t busy with her clients or recording a new podcast, she cherishes her time with her grandkids and embarks on exciting adventures with her husband. Their escapades often include the beach, biking, or out boats. At the end of a fulfilling day, they savor the beauty of the sunset with a cocktail in hand, a testament to Sheri's belief in enjoying life's journey.
