What Is the Minerva Instinct? (INFJs, This Will Blow Your Mind)

INFJ… have you ever felt like you can read the room in seconds, predict the outcome of conversations, and still care deeply about people at the same time?
That’s not “overthinking.” That’s strategic empathy—and it’s why INFJs are basically modern Minervas.

In this video, we break down what I call the INFJ Minerva Instinct: the rare mix of insight + emotional intelligence + quiet power that makes INFJs feel misunderstood… but also terrifyingly accurate. We’ll explore why INFJs naturally become mentors without trying, how you spot performative behavior almost instantly, and why your calm presence can feel like “quiet dominance” to others. If you’ve ever been told you’re “too intense” or “too deep,” this will finally put words to what your mind has been doing your whole life.

What you’ll learn in this video:

Why INFJs often operate like strategic observers (not passive—just precise)

The difference between empathy and strategic empathy

Why INFJs can sense motives and patterns faster than most people

The “quiet dominance” effect: how your calm energy changes rooms

Why your standards feel “high” to others… but are actually just specific

How to use your insight without burning out or carrying everyone emotionally

If you’re into psychology, personality breakdowns, MBTI, and INFJ deep-dives that feel like a documentary (with a little humor), you’re in the right place.
