Summary
I often hear from clients that they are Type A and they have all kinds of questions about how they should handle situations based on their Type A personality.
Are you someone who identifies strongly as Type A? If so, I have a bit of a challenge for you. What would happen if you let go of that label, just a little bit?
In this episode of Weight Loss for Busy Physicians, I’m exploring where the Type A personality came from, why you might identify so strongly as Type A (or Type B), and why these labels can sometimes start causing problems.
If you enjoy being a Type A, don’t worry; I’m not here to tell you that you need to change your whole personality. If it’s working for you, that’s great! I just want to get you thinking about how that label might be forcing you into a box that you don’t always fit into and how to tap into other parts of your personality that could be getting left behind.
Topics covered in this episode include:
- The origins of the Type A personality
- Why we feel the need to label ourselves
- The pros and cons of identifying as Type A
Let’s talk about the identities that we give ourselves and whether they help us or not.
