Welcome back to the Grounding and Growing Leadership Podcast! We’re continuing our Strengths at Play series with one of ALIGN’s newest coaches, Ty Lewis! Ty has joined us on the pod before to share his insights on Strengths and finances, but today he’s here to talk all about play. In this episode, Ty opens up about the strengths he leans on when having fun and what embracing play looks like in this current season of his life.
Join Tara, Pamela, and Ty as they explore how his Strength of WOO helps him bring energy, joy, and connection into every space he enters. Ty is fully embracing a season of celebration, taking on new opportunities, stepping into his role as an ALIGN Leadership Coach, and most importantly, getting married to his best friend. Ty also reflects on how fun isn't just a bonus, it’s a core value that shapes how he shows up in his relationships, his work, and his life. Tune in to hear how strengths can fuel fun, and how you can bring more play into your own leadership journey.
***And mark your calendars; SHIFT is coming back on May 14, 2026! We’re already dreaming big, and we’d love for you to be part of what’s next.***
At the Grounding and Growing Leadership podcast, we believe everyone is a leader and that leadership starts with you.

CliftonStrengths (aka Strengthsfinder) is an assessment that is based on positive psychology and measures core motivations. It’s an extremely powerful tool for personal and professional development as well as improving team dynamics. You will hear us reference Strengths frequently in our podcasts.
