How to Discover the Gift That’s Uniquely Yours? 

What if the thing that makes you different has been there all along, you just haven’t named it yet?

In this Wisdom Wednesday, Chip Conley and Derek Gehl explore how to “excavate your essence” and uncover the unique gift that can guide your work, choices, and life.

You’ll discover:

  • How Airbnb uncovered “Belong Anywhere” by looking beyond what the company does to why it matters
  • A simple five-question exercise for getting beneath the obvious answers
  • How Chip discovered his gift as a “social alchemist” and used it to better understand his path
  • Why other people and the right environment can help you see what’s difficult to uncover alone

Your essence isn’t something you need to invent. It’s something you can uncover.

Watch now and ask yourself: What gift can I offer?
