Pepa Madrigal MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Pepa Madrigal? Pepa Madrigal is an ESFP personality type in MBTI, 6w7 - so/sp - 641 in Enneagram, SLUAN in Big 5, ESE in Socionics.

I get where the ISFP votes are coming from, but to me, it doesn't seem like she has the control or introspective need/capabilities that Fi doms seem to have. It seems like she relies on her Se to comfort herself and forget about her emotions immediately in the moment, calming herself down with mantras that come from both herself and her husband and kids. She's very reactive, and I really think that her Te is stronger than her Ni, shown by her having a set process of dealing with her emotions rather than figuring out why she has them. I get that her whole power is about her feelings, but it's proven time and time again that she gets ahead of herself and tends to consider them a nuisance. Basically, I think she is more in tune with her environment than with her emotions. The environment directly influences her emotions; what she perceives is what she feels. Her feelings are directly influenced by whatever situation is happening around her. I get the Fi-Ni loop argument, but even then, that looks like heavy 6 action. I really think voters are doing the same thing to Pepa that they did to Bruno—typing their power instead of the actual person. Sure, Pepa's power is very Fi based, but SHE isn't. That's why there's such a clear imbalance and lack of control between her and her powers. Edit: Additional info for Se-Te and Ni! Se-Te usage (not sure if loop) by the way she needs everything in order, perfect, and organized in her immediate environment, otherwise bad weather (scene before Antonio's gift ceremony). She utulizes Te to be in control of her environment, and stresses out when it doesn't work out the way she wants it to. Inferior Ni alllll the way. All of her functions act as stressors to her Fi, and inferior Ni is definitely a big one. She definitely uses it! But horribly. Once again before the gift ceremony, she jumps to all these wild conclusions and completely ignores where she presently is. "Great, now I'm thundering. That thunder will lead to a drizzle, and that drizzle will lead to a sprinkle! Clear skies, clear skies..." Her Ni is obviously at odds with her Se at multiple points in the movie. An ISFP with tert Ni would have more control over it, and it would be more balanced with aux Se. This woman is not balanced.

Biography

Pepa is considered a bit extra at times due to her emotional temperament and the way her feelings directly impact the weather around her.
