Most INFPs think leadership means becoming someone they're not.
It doesn't.
INFP leadership starts inside. Your Soul (Fi) already knows what matters. The problem is you've been told that real leaders look a certain way, loud, decisive, directive. And that version of leadership feels like a costume.
In this video I break down what INFP leadership actually looks like, why your wiring is an advantage not a liability, and how the tension between your Soul and your Commander is something you can actually work with.
You lead by resonance, not by control. Here's what that means in practice.
