Straight Talk With Sandra Reich

Maybe you’ve heard of the notion of the type A vs type B personalities. This is the theory that our personalities can be largely broken down into two categories. The type A personality traits usually lend to someone who is very tightly strung, perhaps very competitive and maybe with an obsessive compulsive tendency. Meanwhile, the type B personality traits usually has someone who is a little more withdrawn and laid back, a little more creative and reflective and generally more relaxed. But does the theory really hold water? Is it helpful or harmful for us to make these distinctions? Listen in as Sandra and her colleague Melissa Hindley talk about the complexities of personalities and the values of understanding how you’re wired.
