Hey, it's Joel. I want to give you a quick heads up. In this episode we use some

explicit language. Listen or discretion is advised.

Hi, welcome back to the Personality Hacker Podcast. My name is Joel Mark Witt.

And I'm Antonia Dodge. If you've heard our previous podcast on The Dark Night of the Soul,

I'm still not at 100%, but let's see if we can navigate through this

podcast and see where we can get. So we've actually been doing some work with Dr. Daryonardi who recently published a book called Magic Diamond, which I highly recommend going and checking out. It's actually fantastic.

And while we were doing a workshop with him on this,

with a handful about a dozen people,

something came up for me as we were talking about integrating our 10 year old or tertiary

function and our inferior or fourth function in you know in the Meersburg

system each type has four cognitive functions that are primary.

And the workshop was a lot about integration.

And as we were talking about it, I described my experience of learning how to give weight to my

auxiliary or co-pilot function of introverted thinking or accuracy over my 10-year-old

or tertiary of extroverted feeling or harmony.

And when I say give weight to, I mean, they're both really important.

They're two sides of the same coin, and they must be used in conjunction with each other.

And when I was younger, I would give weight to extroverted feeling or harmony.

Like I would prevent myself from saying things.

Because I didn't want to offend people.

I wanted to be nice and I wanted to preserve my reputation and keep an emotional vibe going and I gave

preference to that over saying things that were radically honest and things that I believed needed to be said.
