Your Value Energy Type
Mostly A’s — The Clarity Keeper
You’re the anchor in the chaos — the one people turn to when things need grounding.
Structure and order bring you peace, but they can also trick you into thinking clarity means control.
You thrive when things make sense. You love a plan, a process, and a clean to-do list — but sometimes your strength becomes your stress when you start managing outcomes instead of trusting direction.
Your growth edge? Let your values, not your fear, make the plan.
Naming your core values gives you something truer than control to hold onto — a compass that works even when the map changes.
Try this: When you feel the urge to fix everything, pause and ask,
“What value am I protecting right now?”
That question will shift you from pressure to purpose.
Mostly B’s — The Connector
You find purpose through people. Collaboration is your oxygen. You feel most alive when you’re helping, listening, or creating something bigger than yourself.
But sometimes, your empathy becomes your exhaustion. You carry everyone’s emotions, priorities, and projects and forget that connection isn’t about carrying; it’s about circulating.
Naming your values helps you know where you end and we begins.
It teaches you that boundaries aren’t walls; they’re bridges built on clarity.
Try this: When you feel stretched thin by everyone else’s needs, ask,
“What connection actually fuels me — and what connection drains me?”
Then, say yes where reciprocity lives. That’s how Creative Adaptive Intelligence comes alive in relationships.
Mostly C’s — The Creator
You move through life by making meaning. Creativity isn’t what you do — it’s how you process the world.
You can turn a problem into a project in seconds. But sometimes, that same spark keeps you spinning, even chasing inspiration instead of direction.
You don’t need fewer ideas; you need clearer priorities. Naming your values helps you decide which ideas deserve your energy right now, and which ones can rest until later.
Try this: When you’re pulled toward every shiny thing, pause and ask,
“Which value does this actually serve?”
That question becomes your creative filter. Turning overwhelm into flow and ideas into action.
Mostly D’s — The Centered One
You move at the speed of wisdom. Stillness isn’t stagnation for you. It’s sacred space.
You can sense misalignment before words ever catch up. But your gift for pausing can sometimes turn into postponing.
You don’t rush; you wait for right timing. But here’s the secret: your values are your timing. They show you when it’s time to step forward, even when things don’t feel perfect.
Try this: When you find yourself waiting for a “sign,” ask,
“What value do I already know I want to honor here?”
Often, that answer is the sign.
Why This Matters
You just met your Value Energy. The way your Creative Adaptive Intelligence moves through you naturally. It’s your instinctive style of clarity.
But instinct without awareness can run you ragged.
Naming your values gives your instincts language, shape, and direction. Yes, turning reaction into alignment.
So whether you lead with Clarity, Connection, Creativity, or Centeredness: a great next step is to name what matters, then practice it with intention.
