Is your genius also your problem? In this episode of the Wise Effort Show, Dr. Diana Hill explores the concept of 'genius energy' – the unique, powerful force that propels individuals towards their greatest potential. Diana discusses how to identify and claim this energy, illustrates how it can become problematic when misdirected, and provides specific tasks to help listeners explore and use their genius energy wisely. Diana shares tips for how to make your genius work for you, rather than your genius being your problem.

• Why everyone has a genius energy
• How to look for genius energy is others, nature, and yourself
