Do you have a child who exhausts you? Maybe they are juggling multiple pursuits and won’t stick with something long enough to master it. Or maybe they are constantly brainstorming their unconventional ideas, talking a mile a minute, in decibels that are just a bit too loud? They may seem extremely confident and outgoing one minute and crippled with anxiety the next. It also may be difficult to tell whether they need more alone time or more social time.
Not all extroverts are created equal!

Dr. Brandon is a multi-potentiated person, with a long rap sheet of diverse accomplishments from being an artist with his own art gallery (check out some of his work at the end of the video), to being a restaurant owner of Blackbird Public House in Washington Park (hint: check it out if you have never met an oyster you didn’t like). www.blackbirdp...
However, even though he almost dropped out of med school to star on Survivor, Dr. Brandon has always considered himself an introvert.
I was already suspicious he was an undercover extrovert when he informed me that he is an enneagram seven. Sevens are considered assertive, positive outlook types and are most often extroverted. Then when I presented him with the INFP list of questions none of them resonated. I had been expecting this. The day of reckoning had arrived. Dr. Brandon is an extrovert who thinks he is an introvert.
In his book Psychological Types, Carl Jung described how extroverts engage with external stimuli (Jung, 1921). He believed that extroverts direct their energy outwards - towards other people or pursuits - and gain energy from such encounters. Introverts, meanwhile, focus their energy inwards, towards more solitary, thoughtful activities. All extroverted P types (ENFP, ENTP, ESTP, ESFP) focus their energy outwards on MANY, MANY different interests.
