Absolutely, I can relate! 🙌 As a 9w8, people often think my calm demeanor means I'm indifferent or passive. 😅 But in reality, there's a lot of inner strength and determination beneath the surface. 💪 One common misconception is that we avoid conflict at all costs. While we do value peace, our 8 wing gives us the ability to stand up for ourselves and others when necessary. 🛡️ It's all about finding that balance between maintaining harmony and being assertive. Another myth is that we're pushovers because we seem so easygoing. In truth, our calmness is a choice, not a weakness.
