A Quiz For Finding & Owning Your Spiritual 'Goddess Element'

The way we react to stressful situations defines who we are. Some of us can be quick to retreat, others stoic and unshakable. When you feel under attack, do you punch back, speak up, and take action? Do you retreat to contemplate your thoughts? Or do you fall somewhere in between?
