Impossible question: I wonder if ExFP, with their 10 year old Te, are disproportionately found in the Dominant subtype? Are ExTP, with their 10yo Fe are disproportionately represented in the Harmonizing subtype?
I love that subtype are something we can take charge of. During this series I keep imagining Harry Potter under the sorting hat saying, ‘not stythering’ except it’s Joel saying ’not normalizing-not normalizing ’
I’m a creative ENFP. But I can see where working in corporate life for over 30 years brought me to using the dominant at times. The only way I can describe it, though, is that every time I would use that, it felt like I was acting that part, not being it. Now that I’m retired I feel much more relaxed and able to be my funny, witty self. I don’t believe I’m a harmonizing, but I have always felt like I enjoyed more intimate one-on-one relationships. I know and interact well with lots of people. The best relationships for me are the few people who let me be me.
ENFP here! I have been operating a photography business for 20 years as a solopreneur and connect with several of the subtypes! In my mid 30s I went back to college and now am about to graduate with my MBA – this his huge because I didn’t think I had it in me due to being labeled flighty earlier on in life and have been honestly combatting that label! When you mentioned a battle within the subtypes at time – it’s so true! Isn’t that the case between being an artist and a business owner?! They’re conflicting roles.
Hi Joel and Antonia,
I have been waiting eagerly for this episode, and I’m glad it’s finally out! I have been at war with myself lately in terms of career, interests, and who I want to be as a person. These descriptions helped me realize that one possible reason for this is that I identify with both the creative and normalizing subtypes.
I believe I identified with the creative subtype growing up, but I always had a normalizing streak, conditioned by my upbringing and environment. In my youth I was encouraged to explore many interests including art, sports, science, and acting. However, my parents also encouraged me to find a stable respectable job so that I could support myself and pursue my other interests later on if I desired. I had a hard time deciding on a career as a result and despite wanting to be an artist and create a more platform-based career for myself, I also valued more technical and predictable paths. I think the dichotomy created two separate identities within myself that I would turn on and off depending on the situation (ex: pursuing my creative passion projects vs. studying for school). While I was able to tap into both as a student, I always felt the clock ticking that I would have to choose between one or the other at some point in my life.
In the last three to four years, I have leaned into my normalizing side. I am a second year law student, and I feel intense conflict in shutting off my creative side to meet the demands of an environment that requires constant, persistent grind to succeed. I want to fundamentally change the system from within, but I have a hard time motivating myself because I feel at odds with expectations and requirements of the system I operate within. I wonder how much of this internal conflict has to do with a battle between subtype energies.
Thank you for the great content! I am still not sure where it will take me, but I think that I have more understanding and respect for the different energies I have available to explore, which is very exciting and motivating.
