I Blamed My Personality for Everything | On Becoming 30 | Ep. 10

I first heard about personality types when I was in secondary school. Someone explained the different types to me, told me I was choleric, and honestly… I loved it. It gave me a language for who I thought I was. I was strong. I was decisive. I could lead. I didn’t take nonsense. But somewhere along the way, I stopped using the label to understand myself and started using it to explain myself away. I thought, “That’s just how I am.” And that sentence can be a very convenient place to hide. In this episode of On Becoming 30, I talk about personality, identity, pride, and the uncomfortable realisation that some of the things we call “just my personality” may actually be things we need to grow out of. Because knowing yourself is important. But knowing yourself should never become an excuse for refusing to change. Welcome to Episode 10 of On Becoming 30. 🤍 #OnBecoming30 #LolaLVNG #Identity #PersonalGrowth #SelfAwareness #growingup
