Linda BinnsPersonality tests told me who I was. My Personal Energy Blueprint showed me why — and how to stop chasing strategies that weren't built for me.
Linda BinnsWe share the highlights. But it's the challenges that show us who we really are. Discover what the difficult moments in life are trying to teach you — and how understanding your personal energy can help you stop resisting and start growing.
Linda BinnsWhen I created this interview series, I wanted to go beneath the success. Not the strategies, or the credentials — the real human story. The moments that actually shaped someone. The decisions made not from confidence, but from necessity. The places where a person had to choose themselves, even when that felt terrifying. My conversation with Dottie Scott gave me all of that. Dottie is the founder of Premium Websites and the Ask Dottie series — a web designer, speaker, trainer, and best-selling author who has spent nearly two decades helping small business owners claim their space online. She’s known for making the complex world of digital marketing feel accessible, even joyful. But before all of that, there was a young woman who didn’t know the word introvert existed. Who had a camera and a dream that didn’t quite fit. Who ended up building something from nothing — not because she had a grand plan, but because she had no other direction to go.
Linda BinnsThe final interview in the Self-Led Leadership series There is a particular kind of reconnection that happens when we stop running and striving. Not necessarily a dramatic transformation or a sudden awakening. Rather, a quiet, steady return — to our body, to nature, to the truth we always carried but somehow learned to distrust. That is the heart of my final conversation in the Self-Led Leadership interview series. And I couldn't have asked for a more fitting place to close. Maribeth Swan is an intuitive counsellor, flower essence guide and educator whose work centers on nervous system healing and helping people reconnect with their deeper essence. She brings lived experience, intuitive awareness, and trauma-informed care to her work — supporting people through grief, loss, and the kind of emotional unravelling that quietly precedes real growth. What drew me to Maribeth, and what I think will stay with you long after you watch this interview, is the quality of gentleness she brings. A reminder that the return to ourselves doesn't have to be hard.
