Parenting with Personality Traits: Become a better parent by understanding personality traits with Sandra Etherington

Sandra Etherington brings Myers Briggs personality types to families in fun and unique ways. She used it in her own parenting and now helps others use it in their homes. Sandra started helping others for FREE. She discovered Myers Briggs when she was working in the corporate world and not loving her career. She started educating herself, helped others for free, and now runs a successful business helping families understand how to best work together utilizing Myers Briggs. Sandra gives an in-depth breakdown of each Myers-Briggs personality category, explaining what each letter means. You don’t want to miss this, it's solid gold! 

How can we use these results to better understand our families? Do you have a child who resists the bedtime routine? Children who despise repetition? These questions and more are answered in this episode.

The ladies asked how we can discipline when we know a child’s type? Sandra explains that compassion and understanding are key. Know what fills their bucket and take the time each day to address that. Also, know that one child will need more direction and step-by-step instruction vs another child. Sandra gives a great example of a sensing child and an intuition child and how to work with them to complete a task. 

Sandra explains how Myers Briggs can often have a misconception surrounding it based on the idea that this is just another online test. She explains how Myers Briggs is backed by science and is a topic that is studied within the neuroscience field. Another common misconception is that the test results themselves can change. Sandra explains that your type never changes and that perhaps the questions were answered differently. How do you type outside the questionnaire? Sandra walks her clients through the types one by one; this combined with pulling from common behaviors of the person plus conversation helps Sandra to pinpoint the person's specific type. 

Do you think knowing this information about ourselves and others can benefit how we interact? Perhaps you are one that jumps to judging others too quickly. Tune in to learn how we can interact better, grow and nurture existing relationships and work better with others we may not see eye to eye with.
