He describes them as freedom-based creators who possess mechanical awareness and thrive on creating and manipulating their environments through hands-on activities. These types include ESTP, ESFP, ISTP, and ISFP, all of whom live in the moment and prioritize what they want over what they should do.
Understanding SP Types [1:00]
SP types are defined by their desire for autonomy and choice. Chase emphasizes that they have a sense of duty similar to SJ types but this is more unconscious.
