Today’s Guest

I'm back with another co-hosted episode with the fabulous Jo Casey!

Today, we talk about how the MBTI – the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. You've probably noticed that Jo and I are huge fans of the MBTI, but did you know that Jo has actually trained in this, and used to facilitate evaluations as part of her pre-business professional life? In this episode, we talk about why the MBTI is so important, and how it's useful to business owners. Jo also does a full run down of my own profile, while helping you to find your own. The way she describes each type is incredibly interesting, and even though I've known my own type for years I learned so much from this episode!
