This page describes the disguise Griffiths wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Ferociously proud and somewhat vain, Rachel Griffiths likes to be impressive and to be considered special and unique. She is not timid, meek, or self-effacing, and is rarely content with staying in the background or in a subordinate position. She is a natural leader, and does not take orders from others very well. Griffiths must have something of her own, something creative - be it a business, a project, a home or whatever - that she can develop and manage according to her own will and vision. Whatever Rachel does, she does it in a unique, dramatic, individual way. She likes to put her own personal stamp on it.

Rachel Griffiths also has a very strong sense of dignity, self-respect, and personal honor and is deeply offended if someone treats her in a humiliating or dishonorable way.

She is very giving and generous, but her gifts are never anonymous - Rachel expects recognition and appreciation for them. She also expects the intense loyalty that she offers to her dear ones to be reciprocated.
