The Architect
I challenge the status quo, innovate, solve problems, and create systems to ensure efficacy, efficiency, and change.
Architects are the people who have the fervor, vision, and systems-brained ability to build innovative and disruptive businesses that change the landscape of their industry and the world.
The Architect sees business as an infinite, never-ending game to master. They look for innovative ways to solve problems better than they’ve ever been solved before. Solutions, systems, and entire businesses that effectively solve problems are the core direction architects go.
Businesses are the most effective way for them to express their innermost psyche.
Architects are firey beings–and without being grounded in their inner work and self-care practices, they easily burn out through working too hard.
The Architect thrives when they have purpose and fulfillment in the businesses they create.
Architects can create big results with seemingly less work through the power of systems creation. They think: what’s the most scalable, repeatable process possible–and how can we use that to accelerate.

Architect's Classes
The Primary + Secondary Archetypes
Your Primary Archetype is your Zone of Genuis.
Your Secondary Archetype is your Zone of Safety.
Together, they create the 12 sub-types, which we Classes. For each Archetype, there are three sub-classes.
Architect / Coach
The
Champion
You have a fire and passion for building service-based businesses at scale. You’ve successfully scaled a coaching business with multiple offers across many customer segments. You’re authentic in your approach, and others seek to replicate and learn from your success. You receive a great deal of respect and admiration from your community for your achievements.
Architect / Creator
The
Outcast
Your mind can conceptualize powerful ideas and innovations, and push them through your primary lens of “business.” This allows you to come up with creative businesses and projections. You are the “Creative director,” and can balance the “extreme” ends of the masculine/feminine spectrum with grace and power.
Architect / Teacher
The
Sorcerer
You’re on a mission to educate the world and use your entrepreneurial prowess to express it. You’re a master of scale, frameworks, and viable business plans. You walk your talk and have scaled your genius through successful digital products such as courses, podcasts, masterminds, and coaching programs. You thrive most when you build brands that allow you to be part CEO and teacher.

The Architect's Expression
Each archetype expresses itself through different levels of personal, conscious development and triggers.
When this archetype is expressing itself in healthy ways, it’s working at it’s best and can truly thrive. When it’s expressing itself in unhealthy ways, there’s unresolved wounding, trauma, or core belief systems that are manifesting as unhelpful (or even harmful) sets of behavior, thought patterns, and emotions.

Unhealthy
Expressions
Chaotic Self-Desctruction
Potential for self-sabotage or a need to control that can be the demise of their ingenious creations.
Disconnected From Purpose
Dissatisfaction and lack of fulfillment regardless of business success.
Worthiness Based On External
Derives worth from success of business (need for validation).
Prioritizes Success Over Humanity
Will do anything to achieve success, even if it’s hurtful to others. Lack of integrity/morality.
Honoring This Archetype
The Architect Archetype values risk and growth over practicality and complacency.
Honoring your Architect Archetype truly means you honor yourself as the vessel, first. The Architect archetype is, of course, the type who is powerful with systems, numbers, conversions, strategy, vision, business, and building something out of nothing.
And because they’re the builder, the innovator, the disruptor of structures–they must manage their firey energy and take deep care of themselves.
The Architect’ worst enemy is themselves and their self-destructive inner patterns. Architects who do their inner work are the ones who thrive in business scaling, growth, and lasting success so they’re not the bottleneck.
