The Hidden Truth Behind INFJs: Why This Rare Personality Type Stands Alone
As Brené Brown has said, “Empathy fuels connection”—but you also need to protect your own mental space to keep that connection healthy.
The struggle with boundaries
People with a strong nurturing side can find it tricky to say no, and I often see INFJs land in this predicament.
They want to help, to support, and to be a safe haven for others, but that can come at the expense of their own well-being if left unchecked.
This boundary struggle can manifest in many ways, like:
- Overcommitting to projects
- Staying silent when they feel undervalued
- Neglecting personal needs in favor of others’ demands
In the context of personal branding, this is significant. A brand that tries to be everything to everyone eventually loses its identity.
