Your Flow Zone Is...

The Influencer ✨

Your genius is influence.

You have a gift for shifting energy and attention through your presence. Whether you’re commanding a room, leading a conversation, or broadcasting a message to a broader audience, you know how to connect, inspire, and galvanize people.

You thrive in spaces where your charisma and communication can make an impact. You’re at your best when you’re seen and heard. Whether in meetings, on stage, or on camera, you bring a magnetism and resonance to the ideas and the causes you care about.

Your ability to influence through presence and communication is a powerful force. When you show up as yourself and speak with intention, you create real change. Ensure this strength is at the heart of your work and you will be on the path to fulfillment and success.

You're likely energized when: 

  • You’re presenting, performing, speaking, or writing

  • You’re setting the tone in a room or guiding the energy of a group

  • You’re visible and using your platform to advocate for something you believe in

Common challenges for Influencers:

  • You may worry about being “too much” or taking up too much space

  • You may feel demoralized if your public-facing work isn’t grounded in purpose

  • You could over-focus on presenting yourself in a certain way instead of allowing yourself to show up authentically

Reflection prompts to deepen your self-awareness:

  • Is there a platform or space that feels easiest for you to influence through?

  • Do you prefer to work with structured messaging you've prepared in advance or freestyle and respond in the moment?

  • Do you enjoy working with large, public audiences—or do you prefer more intimate group settings?

  • Do you influence by delivering your own vision, or by amplifying the ideas of others?

  • What percent of your time in your current role is spent doing your top two Flow Zones? You should aim for 70% or higher.

  • What tasks and responsibilities on your To Do list aren't energizing for you? How much of your current role do they make up? Use the below language to support any restructuring you might need.

When talking to people about how you uniquely add value, you might say:

  • I have a degree of visibility, the role is public-facing

  • I have a platform that allows me to connect and communicate and influence

  • I frequently have to give presentations, speak on panels, and give interviews

  • I have a degree of visibility, the role is public-facing

  • I have a platform that allows me to connect and communicate and influence

  • I frequently have to give presentations, speak on panels, and give interviews

If you want to restructure your role you can use language like:

  • I’d love more opportunities to present / be on camera / speak at a conference, etc

  • I’ve identified [upcoming event] and here’s something I’d love to share [your presentation idea]

  • If your company speaks to the media, ask if you can work more closely with this department or the person who manages these relationships

It represents the strengths that should be at the heart of your role to support your alignment and flow.

But you will also need to clearly define your interests and environmental priorities to create a career North Star that points you towards an energizing career you love.

You have to actually be interested in the work and be working in an environment that supports your lifestyle priorities to thrive 😉
