Über diesen Titel

The Thoughtful Talents Show is what happens when two Gallup Certified Strengths Coaches who both have Deliberative and Responsibility talents get together.

Coaches Jen Werner and Chad Ahern share their unique & thoughtful perspectives about Gallup’s CliftonStrengths talent themes, leadership, followership, and teamwork.

In our coaching work, we've each encountered clients who want to understand the nuances of how each talent theme can show up differently. This is our answer. We look forward to sharing our personal insights about living and working with our unique talents, how we’ve seen others use their talents, and how others can address leadership & teamwork principles.

  • Strengths Applied: Overcoming Challenges
    Aug 12 2025

    In this episode of Strengths Applied, we talk about the challenges we face; both the ones we choose, like changing jobs or starting a family, and the ones that catch us off guard, like health issues or job loss. We share personal stories and reflect on how our talents have shown up in those moments, sometimes helping us move forward, and sometimes making things harder when we’re not using them with intention.


    We also talk about the weight of the challenges we carry, and how we don’t have to carry that weight alone. This episode includes practical advice for those feeling unseen, and for new managers learning to lead through challenges. We offer ways to use your strengths with purpose, ask for support, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
