Glad to see someone speak out about this, and I can totally resonate. Me myself is an INFJ, and in my experience, life becomes more friendly as I age. I don't mean to say that aging is good because it’s true that our physical functions decline as we grow old. What I mean is that my mindset and perspective on life have become clearer with age. The more I experience, the better I understand myself and the world around me. This process is precious to me, and I cherish all that I have accumulated, even if it may not seem valuable to others.
I'm a male INFJ and have been with my wife for 30 years. She is my world and my best friend, If anything ever happened to her.I would just cease to be.
omg, I so much needed to hear this information and encouragement. Everything what Lauren is saying is so true, resonating with me so much. Thank you. I will try to register ❤❤❤
I’m about to turn 40 and I’ve always said I would NEVER care about this but it has literally sent me into an anxiety spiral. I’m an INFJ and I feel so lame feeling this way but I grew up with a mom who was OBSESSED with her looks. I can remember being 6 years old and me and my cousins playing and pretending we were adults and our idea was to complain about our looks. She would tell me when I was young that I better do this and that because I will hate it when I get old. I was determined to never be like her but despite my best efforts my anxiety has latched onto this and It has been SO frustrating!!!! Despite it all people mistake me for my 20s.
Hi Lauren! By chance, I discovered your channel a couple weeks ago! I wasn't on the topic, but Personality types came up in the YT recommendations! 💡 It immediately sparked recollection of the MB test I took at a community college 17 years ago where I was attending as an adult while going through a divorce. Hadn't thought about it since then! I dug out the paperwork after 5 moves/3 states!! I'm INFP. Had NO time back then to focus on it, but now that I'm in this life transition phase, my head is clearer & I can finally discover Me! It was so affirming to hear you say that us INFJs & INFPs have an "easier" time of this phase than some others! It's true, for all the reasons you outlined! Also, my daughter gifted me your book last week!: "The INFJ Revolution." Thanks for your work.
I feel like I’m going through a mid life awakening. If that makes sense to anybody. I don’t know. It barely makes sense to me. It’s scary, heavy, and confusing but I feel like it’s what I make of it. I don’t feel like I’m past my prime like most people my age. I feel like I got plenty of life left in me but do have massive anxiety about f….ing it up
Those first two minutes had me concerned. 😂 I knew INFJs were not like that. I'm 47 and just a couple of months ago embarked on my midlife transition. I gave up my house and moved into an RV. Best decision I ever made! Challenging without a doubt. And I've been processing a lot of the dynamics in my life that led me here. Typical infj stuff. I've grown a lot during this time period!

No lie... I think God sent me to this video.
Sometimes I think I'm TOO introspective, and it's currently messing with my mental health.
It helps to write all of those things down to release them from your brain. Vigorous exercise can help too.

Who else here had a midlife transition every few years since becoming self reliant?
😂 my hubby is holding on for the ride.

40 isn't old. You still have a long way to go.
I didn't begin to feel sexy until my 40s. Best decade ever for enjoying your body!
@ I LOVE this!!! 🙌

Thank you Lauren.
My youth was an ineffectual pile of cringe. - INTJ
Feel for you bro...I felt the same infj
thank you
I can resonate
I thought all of my ways were due to me being a Taurus...but it seems its my INFJ personality is the reason. Or is this the same thing? 🤷🏽♀️
