The Heart Suit:
Why Your Card Matters.
Hearts shift the view. This card helps you to do that. Curious how? Scroll down!
The Catalyst ♥
You’re a spark! Bold, curious, and impatient for progress. You notice when something could be better, fairer, or smarter, and you have the courage to speak up.
Your drive pushes people and systems to evolve. You help teams see that “the way it’s always been” isn’t the only way. You thrive when you’re trusted to test boundaries and when leadership welcomes honesty, not just agreement.
Your energy can shake things up, and that’s your power. Just make sure others understand your ‘why’; it helps them move with you, not against you.
Workplace Needs & Strengths:
Strengths: Courage, disruption, advocacy for progress.
Needs: Psychological safety and allies who help translate vision into practice.

This suit celebrates emerging talent with disabilities. People whose voices have too often been unheard or underestimated.
Your card changes that.
The Heart Suit represents experience that reframes the way teams think, build, and lead. Rooted in navigating barriers and seeing possibility where others see limits.
Most companies don’t have Hearts in their deck. You hold the Missing Card, the one that helps teams win and makes inclusion real.
What you can do with your card:
Share your story on LinkedIn.
Use your card to raise your voice and challenge workplaces to include talent like yours. Don’t forget to invite professionals in your field to get a Mentor Card!

I just took the #PlayTheFullDeck quiz and discovered I’m:
Someone who [add your strength and skill description].
But I’m not just any card. I’m part of the Heart Suit, representing persons with disabilities. The one still missing from most team decks.
1 in 6 people has a disability. Yet we’re twice as likely to be unemployed.
The #PlayTheFullDeck campaign asks: What if we change the game? What if we stand up and share our skills and talents with the world?
With our Heart Suit cards, We bring lived experience that helps teams see differently, think deeper, and build smarter. We see possibilities where others see limits.
Today, I show my card to say: I have the skills. I’m ready to contribute, especially in the field of [insert your field here].
It’s not just about me. It’s about shifting perspectives.
