Dreams Around The World - The Podcast For ENFPs (Campaigners), ADHDers, and Ambitious Creatives

Welcome to the world of Dreams Around The World! I'm Dan Johnston, the Author of The ENFP Calling and your go-to ENFP (campaigner personality) and ADHD advisor. Since starting my coaching business in 2013 I've delved deep into the minds of ENFPs from all corners of the globe and this podcast is an opportunity for me to share everything I've learnt. On this Podcast (and my YouTube channel) I offer tailored advice and insights for ENFPs looking to unlock their true potential and craft a life they love. With ENFP Unleashed, I've cultivated a thriving community for ambitious ENFPs seeking support and camaraderie on their journey. But it's not all work and no play! As an avid traveler, I've lived in nine countries, immersing myself in diverse cultures to better understand the world and ourselves. While my bio may sound impressive, rest assured—I'm as authentic and down-to-earth as they come. So whether you're an ENFP looking for guidance, a fellow traveler seeking inspiration, or simply someone in need of a good laugh, you've come to the right place. Join me on this adventure as we explore the fascinating world of personality, entrepreneurship, travel, and everything in between!

Austin, who's an INFJ, sent me a question about how to decide on your career path if you are considering two or many careers.

Should you listen to your parents' career advice and prioritize a "safe" future? Or should you risk it and go with what you love, even though it doesn't really guarantee any kind of security?

How do INFJs handle a micromanaging boss at their job?

I'm sharing two ways you can deal with micromanagement and come out on top as a successful INFJ.

Going on with the quarantine series, in this episode, I'm talking about shifting from reactive to proactive thinking.

Although this mindset is always good to have, it is absolutely essential in the time of pandemic like this one and specifically for those working from home.

This is the time of new trends - in communication, behavior, relationships, and habits.

Despite being cluttered with information and technology, it seems like we are leaning towards old-school stuff and going back to our roots more than ever before.

Caroline from Sweden asks: Is it an ENFP thing to...just suck at technology?!

Us ENFPs love working and hanging out with people, so if you're an ENFP, you may not like dealing with technology too much and sitting in front of the computer all day.

Is being friends with computers and having good tech skills essential to ENFP success in this digital age we live in....or not so much?

AskDan continues! In this episode, I'm answering voice message questions that I've received from great courageous people via my AskDan page.

How does an ENFP male handle having such intense emotions? Should ENFP men become more stoic, not being so emotionally expressive and over the top?

Where should an aspiring writer start when it comes to publishing a book? I'm sharing a bit of my story as a (copy)writer and a few tips on finishing your creative projects and getting them out to the public.

Nandini was one of the awesome brave people who sent me a voice message which I am answering in this AskDan episode.

How do we manage our mood during the covid-19 epidemic where all of us have been locked inside for...what seems forever and with no end in sight?

You may feel depressed and unfocused right now, but don't worry, there are ways to act on it and improve the situation!

The whole world is currently going through some really tough times and it definitely won't be the same after the coronavirus outbreak.

Fortunately enough, certain people, like ENFPs, perform the best in such situations - this is your time to shine!

Whether it is helping the community, your family or making the best out of your time in quarantine - ENFPs are born to give their maximum under pressure and when it seems they have no other options left.

So, what are you waiting for? After all, at least now you can't complain that life is boring and always the same.

Being an INFP, do you often feel like you have this rich and valuable inner world full of creative ideas and thoughts?

Sometimes does it feel like you can't seem to express them in the right way? Or even not express them at all and you wonder what is the whole purpose?

The good news is that you are not alone - many many fellow INFPs feel the same way, including Jim from Tennessee, who asked the question behind this episode.

What's even better is that there are many techniques and tools you can apply in your everyday life, in order to improve your communication and expressive skills.

In this AskDan episode, I'm answering a few sensitive questions:

  • 40-year-old ENFP feeling stuck and unhappy with himself in his marriage with an ESFJ 
  • 23-year-old gay, agnostic subscriber from Saudi Arabia feeling out of place in her family and community, no one knowing the truth about her
  • ENFP entrepreneur trying to find a stable job that won't make him go insane while starting his business on the side

I did my best to address these questions and offer some advice from my own personal perspective, sharing what I'd do in these situations.

So you have a big crush on an ENFP...What now?! As an ENFP myself, I'm sharing some very important tips for dating an ENFP, what we are looking for in a relationship, and how to be our BEST partner!

There are a few (possibly) surprising things to know before dating an ENFP. It's not just a matter of "are you a personality type compatible with ENFP". There are many other factors to take into account if you'd like to date and have a successful relationship with an ENFP.

Here's the full question I've received from one of my subscribers about how to date an ENFP:

"Hello, Dan! I'm an INFJ with a big crush on an ENFP. 

I was looking for an ENFP who can give me some insight about being an ENFP, what makes them tick, and what they might like in a potential partner. 'Cause I saw that INFJ and ENFP have high compatibility, and me and this girl, we click on many levels, but I feel that she might get cold feet if things get too serious.

Anyway, thanks in advance for your help."

How do you react when things spiral out of control in your life? Why is it that some people manage to brush it off and move on while others lose themselves in the chaos and find it extremely difficult to bounce back?

In this episode I'm sharing my approach on how to smooth life's edges at difficult times, focusing on what you CAN do.

This approach, which I call The Asset Approach, will help you improve your baseline in life, manage the ups and downs while not going crazy, and significantly reduce the risk of having a really low low.

Surprise surprise, Mr ENFP with ADHD battles with procrastination (and sounding like a 4 letter government organization)!

I want to share what I've figured out has helped me stop procrastinating and create a wealth of creative content including writing books, recording podcasts, and especially, consistently filming YouTube videos. 

Getting stuck in the creative block is not fun and, apart from wasting a ton of time, it may feel like you're wasting your talents away! Creative energy is not very predictable, so the question is:

How to stop procrastinating and maximize your creativity so that you can get more of your creative work done?

As an ENFP with ADHD, I myself struggled with this, so I'd like to share some helpful tips on how I overcome procrastination and manage to follow through on my creative projects by reframing what procrastination means to my creative process.

In this Part 4 of my AskDan session which I recorded here in Spain, I'm sharing some more responses to the questions I've received from some of my subscribers.

What is the best strategy for a young ENFP to pick the right college major or career? Given the ENFP personality traits, what should ENFPs take into consideration when deciding on their career path? I'm sharing a bit of my own ENFP career story and one very important tip to set you on the right track.

What should you do if you'd like to change your ENFP career into one that is more meaningful to you, but you're scared since you have a family and financial obligations to take care of?

I'm debunking the starving artist myth and sharing my best advice on how to think about the risk that comes with pursuing your ENFP passion. If you're aspiring to be a writer or a copywriter, this advice may be especially useful to you.

If you're thinking of becoming location independent, travelling full time, and starting your own business that would allow you to have such a lifestyle, there are some very important things you have to consider. I'm sharing some tips on discipline, accountability, and how to start a blog even if you're a full-time employee right now.

This is Part 3 of a little AskDan session of mine where I respond to questions from my subscribers sent to me via my website.

In this episode I'm answering:

What should you do if you feel like a failure at everything? If you find it difficult to start taking action and reach your goals, it may have a huge bad impact on your confidence. You may end up in a vicious cycle of beating yourself up, not feeling confident enough to try to work on your goals, which will, in turn, make you even less confident.

Are you comparing yourself to others' perfect lives on Instagram and feeling that everyone's doing much better than you? Listen up for some advice on how to break out of this poor state, how to stop feeling like a failure, and rebuild your confidence step by step!

To be top performers, should ENFPs work at jobs they are less suited for to build more knowledge, job skills, and credibility to better perform later at something they'd rather do - or should they jump right into it and start doing their own thing immediately?

Building skills and learning are very important and I'd like to share some of my personal stories around my own ENFP career and jobs, as well as some advice on how an ENFP can go about gaining knowledge and skills in the most effective way.

This is Part 2 of a little AskDan session of mine that I recorded as I was waiting for some important news about my recent investment in Ukraine, which got me a bit worked up. So I thought it would be good to cheer myself up with the notes and questions from my lovely subscribers!

I'm sharing some thoughts on:

  • Is finance a good career for an ENFP? I'm addressing some pros and cons of having a career dealing with markets and economy as an ENFP 
  • How to better structure your thoughts and communicate more clearly as an ENFP
  • Beating procrastination, making the most of last-minute work, and overall being productive and getting things done in a strategic way

As I was waiting for some important news about my recent property investment in Ukraine, instead of giving in to stress I thought it'd be fun to go through a bunch of AskDan questions I've received via my website.

In this episode, which is Part 1 of this little AskDan session of mine, I'm sharing some helpful advice on:

  • Changing your MBTI type and if an ENFP with ADHD can actually turn into an ENTJ
  • Quitting a well-paid job that doesn't inspire you
  • How to take care of your need for a community when you're planning to become an expat or a digital nomad and move to a different continent

I was just about to head out to the beach here in Valencia when I saw an email response from one of my subscribers.

He's an 18-year-old ENFP and he wrote about how difficult life was going for him. At this age he is still trying to figure some things out for him and overall feels life is very hard.

After finding out he's the ENFP personality type, he's been learning about himself and trying to improve, but is having these struggles of not being able to figure out life, feeling overwhelmed and trapped.

As an older ENFP myself, inspired by his question and a raging storm here in Valencia, I wanted to give him some ENFP life advice on these turbulent teen times, as well as share a different perspective on the stormy times in our lives.

You can check out the photos of the storm in Valencia that I've mentioned in the episode on this link:

I often get asked for advice around how to pick the best career path if you're an idealist personality type. I've created this special episode with one question in mind:

If I could go back in time and share my best career advice with my 20-year-old ENFP self, what would I tell that young, ambitious idealist?

What's the best way to decide what to do, where to work, or what to study so one day you'll be doing what you really want?

Is it better to jump right into doing your own thing or is it better to get more experience working for someone else first?

The career tips in this podcast special episode are especially helpful for young ambitious idealist personalities (in MBTI: ENFP, INFP, INFJ, or ENFJ) entering the real world after high school or college, but they can also serve you if you're just lost or stuck in life and you'd like to make a career change.

As a special addition, I'm also sharing two distinct career and life paths I think successful idealist personality types should follow, as well as a disastrous one to avoid at all costs!

Keep this career advice in mind when you're choosing your major, choosing a career, or deciding on whether to work for yourself.

It's the start of a new year- the time we're thinking about our choices, past decisions, and making New Year's resolutions. But...

What if you find yourself getting stuck in the big picture of things because you lack clarity on what you want to do with your life?

"What's my life purpose anyway?!"

If you still haven't figured out what you want to do in your life, you will find it hard to set your goals around your life purpose and actually make those New Year resolutions.

You may have heard me saying that my mission here at Dreams Around The World is to help you become the best version of yourself all while creating the most awesome life possible for you and those you love.

In this podcast special episode I'm sharing with you some of my best pieces of advice on how to find your purpose and passion in life, ditching the old approaches that don't work for most of us idealist personality types (in MBTI: ENFP, INFP, INFJ, and ENFJ).

My focus is on how to figure out what you want to do using your strengths, thinking differently about time, and ultimately designing your life around your personality type.

You may have SO many interests and passions that you have no idea how to pick just ONE (*cough cough* - ENFPs and INFPs), so it's not easy figuring out your life passion, your perfect career path, and lifestyle.

I hope this special episode will help you in getting more clarity on what you want to do with your life so you can set your goals to ultimately create your dream life.

HOW DARE THEY do this to me?! When someone didn't treat you the way you deserve, how do you pick yourself up, move on from the resentment, and keep going forward as your best self? 

Whether you're wondering how to get over a breakup or how to move on from a bad job where you gave it your all and life slapped you in the face, this question that one of the members in my Dreamers community sent over might fully resonate.

This split-up and breakup advice is especially helpful for idealists - ENFPs, INFPs, INFJs, and ENFJs, who have the best intentions giving their all in their relationships and might end up bitter and heartbroken when not reciprocated.

Full question:

"How do I get rid of old resentment from my previous job? I was overworked, underpaid, and underrecognized for my efforts for 3 and a half years.

I left because there was no way around this. But instead of getting on with my life, I keep thinking about this a**holes and getting really angry at the way I was treated.

This, of course, is filtering into my new job because I'm afraid to give my everything under the assumption that these people will do the same to me.

I feel like this is holding me back and now I'm struggling to get things done."

I've received a question from a fellow ENFP, Judy, a Syrian living in the Netherlands for the past 3 years.

She says she picked up the language pretty quickly and started her Bachelor's degree this year, which was great, but there is a problem:

"Everywhere I go, I find myself feeling like an outsider.

It's such a shame that I barely interact or hang out with my classmates or roommates unless I'm drunk because I'm insecure about my Dutch and it makes me appear as less friendly, but silent and distant.

Which is, of course, a nightmare for an ENFP.

Aside from that, I can't relate or be engaged with most subjects that are brought up in a typical conversation and the Dutch are really distant people and difficult to approach unless they're drunk.

So I truly miss the Syrian spontaneity in everything. When I use English, though, I am way more open, can have fun conversations easily and express myself way better and just be myself.

The only problem is it is really awkward to start speaking English out of nowhere with everyone and it is not very beneficial for learning Dutch.

So do you have a tip for me to be myself, communicate better with native speakers, and use a new language?"

If you're an ENFP or INFP and something doesn't go your way, well...things might just go downhill from there. Don't worry, I got you!

Us ENFPs and INFPs love being comfortable and we're excited when things go well, but...when they don't, we might fall into a destructive mindset.

We're idealists and we should be able to find solutions to our problems in creative ways, right? Unfortunately, this negative thinking can make us stuck and prevent us from moving forward.

These destructive patterns can lead us ENFPs and INFPs to change direction too often, not follow through on our goals, and ultimately not accomplish anything significant in our lives for years!

In this episode I'm explaining why this happens and, more importantly, how to solve it.
