Episode notes
Values Need Stories Not Words
- One-word values often fail because they're vague; core values must be non-negotiable principles tied to lived stories.
- True values show up consistently across work, relationships, and community.
Use Questions To Discover Real Values
- Use discovery questions (what engages you, what do others ask you for, where did you struggle) to surface real value themes.
- Group themes, craft phrasing, and run the core-validator to make values actionable.
Run The Core‑Validator Tests
- Validate values by four tests: decision-useful, opposite feels bad, phrase not single word, and objective measurability.
- Reword values into short phrases you can rate yourself on during reviews.
