In this episode, Joel and Antonia talk about the differences between personality types in how they experience judgment.
In this podcast you’ll find:
- What is judgement and how does it affect our lives? How creating the Empowered for INFJs and INFPs course prompted Joel and Antonia to explore their relationship with judgement.
- Joel’s experience with judgement as an Authenticity (Fi) and Effectiveness (Te) user.
- Antonia’s experience as an Accuracy (Ti) and Harmony (Fe) user – and a recent situation that caused her to examine her thoughts on judgement.
- Where does the saying “judgement is a knife” come from – and why does this metaphor capture the nature of its effects?
- Joel uses a personal example to illustrate that the degree to which you swallow external judgement is really based on your own internal judgements.
- What happens when judgement becomes a habituated way of thinking?
- The apparent virtue of self-deprecation – and why this actually “cuts” connection.
- Changing your perspective and response when someone “hands you a knife”.
- The relationship between the extraverted judging functions and judgement.
- The difference between using calibration and judgement as a way to measure yourself and your results.
- Adopting a gratitude practice to overcome self-judgement.
- Reapplying judgement as a tool for praise – and why people can resist this.

I’m with you – seeing his quote as a tool rather than a weapon gives some flexibility to it. Disconnection is, itself, contextual. That said, for most people disconnection creates loneliness, and understanding that we can be responsible for that disconnection by ‘swallowing the knife’ is an important reframe.

The other way to work with Krishnamurti’s quote about the knife: it can be a useful tool when used based on discernment rather than judgment. In that case utilizing the knife can be a life-affirming choice and not something that leads to loneliness. In this case the knife is not a weapon, but a tool. Exploring the nuanced difference between judgment and discernment might be an interesting topic for a future podcast. Food for thought!
Not specific to this podcast, but overall…
Just wanted to say thank you for caring about the audio quality of your podcast.
I have issues with my ears and it makes a huge difference to me being able to consume content to have good/high quality audio and have things not sound like someone’s just using the mic on their laptop. I appreciate the effort (not to mention cost) of maintaining high standards in this area.
Thanks again.
