I just came across your article and love it! Although a longtime fan of Barbara Sher, I only recently realized I'm a scanner (as a scanner, I'd only read one of her books!), and it all makes so much sense. It really helps to get some validation for being this way. I wrote about it a bit in this Substack post: https://flowerchild.substack.com/p/age-is-not-just-a-number. My Substack newsletter is giving me the perfect scanner outlet, as I love writing but can't be tied to just one topic. Since this is something I'm doing separately from my day job, I can write about anything I want. After a few other stops in my winding career I've ended up doing communications consulting, which gives me some of the variety I crave. I love what you say in another post in this series about synthesizing, something I do all the time. It's great to be able to understand and appreciate how we are, and to feel like we're okay this way and don't have to fight it! Thank you for writing this.
