For sure! 🙌 As a Type 4, the Individualist, I often get labeled as overly dramatic or self-absorbed. 😅 People sometimes think we're just moody artists, but there's so much more depth and richness to our experiences and emotions. 🌊 One way I've found to overcome this misconception is by sharing my creative process with others. 🎨 When people see the passion and thoughtfulness behind my work, they start to understand that it's not about being dramatic—it's about expressing a deep inner world.
