How to Share Your Superpower

Posted in howtoshareTagged , , , , , , ,

“It may be that you are not yourself luminous, but that you are a conductor of light. Some people without possessing genius have a remarkable power of stimulating it.” – Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

As you can imagine, there’s a lot of chatter going on in Seattle about the Seahawks after they won Super Bowl LX this past weekend. I heard a story the other day about head coach, Mike Macdonald. He was being interviewed and the reporter asked him something like “What’s so special about you?” Apparently, Mike just sat there silently thinking about that question and never came up with an answer. Chalk one up for Mike Macdonald’s humility.

But this week’s How To Share guest, Roger Kastner, says only about half the people he asks can name their superpower. As a podcast host and producer of the What Do You Know to Be True? podcast, Roger has a gift for teasing out people’s superpowers. He is a fantastic facilitator of meaningful conversations—inviting accomplished guests to explore the truths that shape how they lead and live.

In this episode you can see and hear his deep passion for connection, curiosity, and the power of reflective dialogue. Roger’s mission is to share the learning and practices that help people thrive, build capabilities, and unlock purpose and potential.

Roger’s theme for this season of What Do You Know To Be True? is joy. Fitting because Roger shows how good he is at fostering joy through laughter, appreciation and the act of creating.

This is a fantastic episode with a powerful guest who knows how to bring out the best in others. I know you’ll love it!

Identity Before Strategy: How To Break Through Invisible Ceilings with Kevin Yoder – The Life of Try: Personal growth, one try at a time.

What if the reason you feel stuck isn’t a lack of discipline, strategy, or ambition—but an outdated identity you’ve outgrown? In this episode of The Life of Try, host Wynne Leon talks with Kevin Yoder, creator of Infinite U, about identity-first transformation and why lasting personal growth begins with who we believe we are becoming.Kevin brings more than two decades of experience in real estate, leadership, coaching, and personal development to a powerful conversation about self-image, paradigms, confidence ceilings, income ceilings, and the invisible patterns that keep capable people from reaching their next level. Together, Wynne and Kevin explore the question he learned from Bob Proctor—“How are your results?”—and how honest awareness can open the door to meaningful change.If you’ve ever started strong and stalled out, felt like you had “weights around your ankles,” or wondered why the next version of your life still feels just out of reach, this episode offers a hopeful, practical look at how to begin again from the inside out. Listen for insights on identity transformation, personal growth, self-concept, mindset, attitude, and building a life that reflects who you are ready to become.Key Takeaways• Lasting change begins with identity: the way we see ourselves often shapes what we believe is possible, more than strategy alone.• Invisible ceilings—around confidence, income, consistency, or growth—can point to outdated self-image patterns that are ready to be examined.• The question “How are your results?” offers a simple but powerful way to practice honesty, awareness, and intentional transformation.• Attitude becomes the bridge between belief and behavior when our thoughts, words, feelings, and actions become more aligned with who we are trying to become.🌐 Infinite U Assessment: https://infiniteuassessment.comShow notes and more inspiration: https://wynneleon.com🔔 Subscribe for more: Subscribe to The Life of Try for more conversations on: personal growth, creativity, reinvention, resilience, writing, and mindset.📌 Subscribe To YouTube Channel & Stay Updated: → https://www.youtube.com/@thelifeoftry?sub_confirmation=1ABOUT MEHi, I’m Wynne Leon — host of The Life of Try, a personal growth and self-improvement podcast exploring resilience, reinvention, uncertainty, and the courage to keep trying.

  1. I think my superpower is just loving my animals 🤭😁 Such a deep question. My neighbors might answer for me, not me🤩. I like this podcast topic, Wynne. Edifying one!

  7. Oh how interesting. I have to bookmark this to listen to the whole thing!

    I think I would have to ask others what they think my superpower is… I tend to think it is mine has something to do with inviting people in to share, sort of. Not sure how to define it!

    1. And maybe ability to beautifully convey images in just a few words — and willingness to jump in to challenges?

      It’s a fun episode. I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for tuning in, Dale!

      1. Awww. How sweet are you?

        I told my coworker about this and she said ask me what I think yours is! So I did. She said my sense of humour was fabulous and that I had a knack of dealing with people and not fretting when things get complicated. Pleasure to work with me, she added. Well! Okay then!

  11. I like that Roger shared “curiosity” as being a common response to the superpower question with his guests. This is relatable to me. I have always been extremely curious, and that became the springboard to most everything else: my writing, my exploration of the world; my love of learning. I need to fill up all the time. Separately, I really liked his story about his wife and her sister and how her superpower of kindness was born. That’s beautiful. Thanks for bringing on such an engaging guest! (Congrats on the Seahawks, Wynne. I thought of you. 😊)

    1. I can see curiosity as a defining factor for you, Melanie. But you also have such an amazing ability to follow it where it leads which is rare!! And thanks for the Super Bowl congrats. My kids and I went down to see the parade today. It’s a fun moment of collective effervescence in this city!

  13. Best not to tell the young about there Superpower, unless you are sure they aren’t going to try to fly like Superman out of their second floor window. I have seen it happen!

  14. My superpower was learned from my teaching days, the ability to see someone who is feeling uncomfortable and to help them reduce their anxiety by simply going over and talking to them. We all want to be accepted. Children have kind hearts and will come to the aid of others who are feeling lonely or left out, a feeling we can all relate to.

  15. Great conversation between two great coaches and mentors. I love conversations that explore what makes people and teams tick – and so much of it is beyond the hard skills, but the soft skills that are harder to teach.

    Love the connection you draw from superpower to purpose to potential – and all the ingredients that contribute to it, from joy, courage, teamwork and adaptability. It’s like a muscle that you can practice and grow.

    A nice pick-me-up boost as I commute to a day at work! 😊 Enjoy your day and upcoming long weekend!
