I welcome back to the personality hacker podcast my name is Joel Mark Witt and I'm

Antonio Dodge so this is part two of a two-part series episode structure I don't know but it's part two we're talking about personality types and self parenting and in part one the last episode we laid down a lot of groundwork like the entire episode was laying down the

tracks of what it means to be a good parent how do people or what are some

and so we have to but at the same time do parenting for others.
