Proud and intensely individual, Kathie Lee Gifford really wants to stand out, to be the very best she can be, and to be recognized and appreciated for her unique contributions. Doing something well and being respected for it is extremely important to her, and she cannot tolerate being relegated to the background, taking orders from others, or being "just one of the team".

For Kathie Lee Gifford, it is true that "the entire world's a stage" and she secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) desires to be the star or hero of the play. Kathie wants to be great and to receive the love and applause of an adoring audience, even if the "audience" is just one other special person. She needs someone to believe in her and her dreams.

However, Kathie Lee Gifford likes to be the strong one in her relationships and she really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Kathie needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as she is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with her.

Gifford's strengths are her zest and love for life, her creative power and her warm and generous heart. Her primary fault is her tendency to be very egocentric, and so concerned with the impression she is making and with her own creative self-expression that she forgets there is another, larger world that does not revolve around her.

She is a private person and inclined to withdraw in very public and impersonal social settings. Kathie Lee Gifford prefers to work at home or in a very personal small business.

Kathie should beware, however, of becoming an opportunist.

However she also has a more somber side, which keeps Gifford's optimism from becoming ungrounded or overblown.

She is very open and receptive to the spiritual, intangible, and subtle realms, and can easily receive or give conscious guidance based on her inner attunement.

Kathie Lee Gifford may not realize she has spiritual gifts because they come so naturally to her.

Inwardly she is zealous and fanatical, though she may hide her personal desires and intentions, as well as the intensity of her feelings.
