Personality

The MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) is a framework that sorts people into 16 personality types based on four dimensions: how you gain energy (Extraversion / Introversion), how you take in information (Sensing / iNtuition), how you make decisions (Thinking / Feeling), and how you organise your life (Judging / Perceiving). Each combination of four letters produces a distinct profile with its own strengths, blindspots, and way of moving through the world.

I am a big fan of this framework. I find it a useful lens for self-reflection, and I love using it to understand how other people behave — so I can better relate to them and make them feel seen. The types should not be seen as rigid labels, but as a starting point for curiosity about yourself and others.

The eight questions below are a rough approximation. Answer with what feels most natural, not what you think you should be. Results are only shown to you, nothing is stored.
