Herald
“Silence in the face of injustice is complicity.”
Understanding the Herald
You feel a strong need to take action when something is unfair or harmful. You are the person who will speak up when others stay quiet. You turn principles into movement and you cannot ignore situations that violate your sense of justice. You often inspire others to step forward too. You feel most aligned with yourself when your convictions push you toward meaningful action rather than quiet agreement.
Dominant Driver
White is the drive toward principled coherence and fair structure. It shows up in people who naturally organize plans, clarify expectations, and try to make sure everyone is treated consistently. At its best, White creates spaces where others feel safe, respected, and able to rely on shared agreements—whether that’s a project, a household, or a friend group. At its hardest moments, this drive can turn into anxiety about disorder, over-responsibility for other people’s behavior, or resentment when others ignore the rules you’re trying to uphold.
Auxiliary Driver
Red is the drive toward intensity and honest expression. It shows up in people who act on what they feel, say the thing everyone else is dancing around, and would rather live a vivid life than a perfectly controlled one. This might be the friend who texts “I’m outside, let’s go”, the person who laughs loudly, cries openly, or makes big gestures when something matters. At its hardest moments, Red can jump too fast, stir up drama, or burn out—only realizing afterward that not every impulse needed to become an action.
Auxiliary Driver
Green is the drive toward connection and organic growth. It shows up in people who think about how things and people fit together over time, who notice the emotional atmosphere in a room, and who care about whether a path feels alive rather than just impressive. This might be the person who tends to friendships like a garden, who values slow, steady progress, or who keeps an eye on whether everyone is actually okay beneath the surface. At its hardest moments, Green can avoid necessary conflict, stay too long in familiar situations, or bend itself around others until it’s not sure what it really wants anymore.
Strengths & Weaknesses

Path to Growth
Your passion for what's right can pull you toward extremes. You might turn a workplace disagreement into a moral stand, or exhaust yourself fighting battles that could have been conversations. Growth means learning when to confront and when to persuade. Not every injustice requires a crusade—some require craft. Build alliances before you charge. Let your fire sustain rather than scorch. When you channel your urgency strategically, you don't just make noise; you make change.

Relationship Dynamics
You bring intensity, honesty, and a powerful moral compass to relationships. Partners often admire your courage and clarity. But your instinct to ‘fix’ or ‘confront’ can sometimes overshadow simple presence. Relationships thrive when you balance your urge to protect or challenge with moments of quiet connection, recognizing that not every disagreement is a battle worth fighting.
Personal Growth Plan
Practice pacing. Choose causes consciously rather than reactively. Experiment with strategic patience—collaboration, negotiation, and incremental change can amplify your impact rather than dilute it. Notice when your passion arises from principle, and when it arises from restlessness. Learn to channel your fire into durable structures, not just sparks.
Communication Style
You speak with conviction, urgency, and an instinctive sense of right and wrong. Your words can mobilize crowds or catalyze action. To grow, cultivate space for dialogue: ask as much as you declare, listen as much as you rally. Your message becomes far more powerful when others feel you are fighting *with* them, not just *for* them.
