How to Identify What’s Really Holding You Back: The SPHERES Self-Assessment

In this episode of Always Evolving, I walk you through one of the cornerstone exercises from my book Best Self: Be You, Only Better—an exercise I’ve used with clients for over two decades. It’s called SPHERES, and it’s designed to help you pinpoint the exact area of your life that’s keeping you from becoming your best self. We’ll explore the seven core areas: Social, Personal, Health, Employment, Relationships, Evolving, and Spirituality. I’ll guide you through how to assess each one honestly and help you reflect on what’s out of alignment—and more importantly, what to do about it. Learn more about your ad choices.
