In this episode of How to Stay Human, Tori and Kyle open a conversation that sits at the core of personal transformation — the difference between values and virtues, and why virtues are the true compass of the soul.

Values are often inherited… taught… or projected onto us by culture, religion, or institutions.

But virtues?
Virtues are embodied.
They live in the body, in the heart, in the soul. They are the qualities of your essence — courage, honesty, devotion, awe, patience, truthfulness, creativity, trust, and more.

Together, Tori and Kyle walk through:

  • Why values often feel rigid, performative, or socially prescribed
  • Why virtues are alive, adaptive, and deeply personal
  • How virtues help you return to yourself during seasons of uncertainty
  • How to identify your “home frequency”
  • How to map your own virtue design (your soul’s operating system)
  • What underdeveloped virtues are trying to teach you
  • How virtues show up inside partnership and mirror your growth
  • Why your virtues shape your reputation, impact, and spiritual expression
  • How to use virtues as a framework for healing, clarity, and self-leadership

This is a foundational episode — one that will change the way you understand yourself, your relationships, and the path you’re walking.

If you’re feeling lost, unsure, or in transition… this episode will bring you home.
