He and his wife Lauren adopted three children through the foster system in February of 2018 and, one month later, Lauren became pregnant with twins, who were born in December of 2018. They live in Orlando.Dr. Hardy’s new book, Personality Isn’t Permanent, debunks the pervasive myths of personality that have captured pop culture. For example, personality tests like Myers-Briggs and the Enneagram are not only psychologically destructive but are no more scientific than horoscopes. Personality Isn’t Permanent provides science-based strategies for reframing past memories, becoming the scribe of your identity narrative, upgrading your subconscious, and redesigning your environment. When you know the truth of personality, desired personal change can be dramatic and directed. When you don’t, personality is something you seek to discover rather than create.Check out Dr. Hardy’s website: benjaminhardy.comPurchase a copy of Personality Isn’t Permanent: penguinrandomhouse.com/books/607021/personality-isnt-permanent-by-benjamin-hardy-phdRead a summary of Personality Isn’t Permanent and how introverts can become more extroverted: medium.com/@godwinhschan/personality-isnt-permanent-an-introvert-s-experience-on-becoming-more-extroverted-f71a3eb01c2f?sk=ce957f49998de305a6875fcde8327108
