How can you be true to your INFJ self in a world that wants you to blend in and be like them? Do you ever wrestle with this tension? Do you want people to accept you but also want to be true to your own unique personality? You, as an INFJ, think differently than most people, and others don't always smile upon your way of life. This fact leads many INFJs to suppress their true selves and hide them from all but their closest friends. But what if there were a better way? What if you could live a life that honored your unique INFJ self? In today's show, we'll talk about how you can do just that. And, today, I have the pleasure of introducing you to Jacob Nordby. Jacob is the creator of the popular online course Creative UnBootcamp, and author of Blessed Are the Weird – A Manifesto for Creatives. He leads writing groups, offers private creative coaching, and facilitates retreat intensives. He is passionate about creating safe spaces where people can liberate themselves to become who they really are.
In this episode I'm introducing my new sorta-kinda book club and the first selection, Blessed Are The Weird: A Manifesto For Creatives by Jacob Nordby. Listen to my thoughts on the introduction of the book then grab a copy and read along! ------------ Mixing a love for art, random thoughts, moments from life, and the occasional cat noise, Stars for Eyes is meant to be listened to as raw, real, sometimes awkward, and sort of abstract auditory art. A lot of people are managing to get themselves heard these days. Why not me? Why not you? SFE is a listener supported podcast. Visit patreon.com/lisabarbero to show your support and have your voice heard.
Jacob Nordby offers a bold new definition of success in the modern era. “The only success now is living and creating a work-of-art life: unique, rich with meaning, naked of anything we don't care about, and ruthless about carving out something absolutely real from a world that has gorged itself on fakeness and become critically ill from it. The only failure now is pulling back from that quest because of fear.” Expanding upon his short original “Blessed Are the Weird” piece that became a viral phenomenon, he traces the roots of soulful artistry and creation to ancient times and back again to reveal the insistent, eternal quest of our true natures that demands something real—as if our very existence depends upon it.
Blessed are the weird! What a boring world we would be living in if everyone was the same. The evolution of humanity is dependent on people who want things to stay the same. And also on people who are weird. There are those of us who are designed to be different. Not out of rebellion. Not to prove some point. Not out of a youthful need to differentiate ourselves from our parents or our lineage. But because we are here to change the world. To take bold action to expand the understandings and the possibilities for humanity. To be the carriers of cultural mutation. Because without mutation, we'd never grow and expand. Weird people bring us music, art, poetry, stories, scientific breakthroughs, cultural trends and so much more. Weird people change the way we see ourselves, open our minds up to new potential solutions, help us see reality with fresh eyes. And help us understand what has come before with a new perspective. Please join me and author, inspirational leader and speaker, Jacob Nordby for this week's Quantum Conversation!

We have all made agreements about how we choose to live our lives and what we believe our personal truths are.

Join us as we discuss how to make new Agreements that are more in line with our true Authentic Self.
Seasons change, weather changes, leaves change, and so do people. In HeatherAsh Amara's work, we are encouraged to embrace the changes in our lives and create the kinds of changes that we want to see in ourselves and our world.
