We had so much fun during this live Q&A Event with our Type 1 Experts! Jaleah and Marcy answered wonderful questions from our community to support you on your journey as a Type 1.
You’ll hear different perspectives as Jaleah and Marcy answer questions about:
- How to keep things interesting when the circumstances are not new and fresh anymore
- What do the Gilmore Girls have in common with Type 1 women?
- How Marcy found adventures wherever she went, even on a budget!
- What to do when makeup feels too heavy
- How to communicate effectively when you need to say “no”

- Can you really be a Type 1 if you’re not “go-go-go” all the time?
- What should Type 1s wear to a funeral when black is not your color?
They’ll also address how a Type 1 can still be the “light of the party” while not enjoying small talk. You’ll get expert tips about how to be on-time, and also clarity about whether all Type 1s are messy and late for everything!

Wonderful, One-derful ladies! 🙂 This is an excellent chat for us! I love the in-depth answers to the questions, showing me just how individual my t1/s4 is, different from all other t1/s4s. Great info about browns for funerals, going through the birth story clearing several times, and being on time. I need to watch that part again particularly! Thank you so much! You’re the best! 😀
i was scared at first that the bright colors make up is too much,but after i tried it on me,it just feels right. and now i love it:) thankss. in the past i barely used make up or jelery-now i have lots of make up and jelery that im in love with. 🙂 and it just feels right and makes me happy to put it on.
i learned to be on time by getting ready early and than to put an alarm clock like 5-10 minutes before i need to get out,and i use that time to recheack and refocus on where i need to go. and to leave early rather than find something else to dothink about.
I love these videos, and Jaleah and Marcy are just adorable. As a Type1, one of the most helpful things I’ve heard is what Marcy said about wondering if maybe you’re another type regularly, and that being the confirmation that you are a Type1. I go through this almost daily! I love having all of the other types content because I can watch the videos for the other types and they just don’t feel like home, whereas Type1 always does.
Excellent advice on getting out of the dysfunctional side of our secondary, Marcy! I too am a 1/4 and get into a feeling and attitude of pessimism and even depression if I start living too heavily in my 4… it was good to hear your experience with this and your advice. Thanks so much! Xo
You both look great, Marci and Jalea! Thank you for this! I, also, need to have a job, usually, at a party or event. Otherwise I feel guilty or amazingly bored. Ha ha … And Jalea, you are glowing, Lady. Thanks for those tips on handling our need to feel free and unencumbered with commitments, Jalea and the tips about fall/winter dressing, Marci! Cool. I think the navy slip idea might help me, too…thanks.
On being late! I am a type 1 and rarely, if ever, late… 🙂 I know my mother helped me with this while I was young… First, we set out clocks 10 minutes ahead… and because I am type 1, I often forget that my clock is ahead! Not till my type 4 hubby or child reminds me, that is. Lol 😀 And the other thing I do is what Marcy suggested. I clear my brain and only focus on what needs to be done about an hour or two when I had little kids… 4 under 4 at one time!!! or now that they are all older about a half hour to an hour before I need to leave. That way I am ready and waiting for everyone else most of the time. I think because my secondary is 3 it helps me… I can push when I need to. But that’s how I end up on time to most things. OH! One more tip… I always set my leave time to be early. So if I need to be somewhere by 7:45, I show up at 7:30. I always have extra time. I would much rather be early than late. I can always find someone to talk to, or help, or read, or whatever… I never get bored 😉
Thanks a lot to Marcy and Jaleah to taken time for this interesting Q&A. You both look so cute and fresh. Me as a type 1 i love so much humour and laugh and with my husband and 2 girls we have a lot of fun. But in the social environment i prefer to be more quiet. I’m looking younger, sometimes i get out silly in my opinion. People are correct to me, and i don’t feel as the light of a party. Could it be my secondary overwhelms me? My husband can talks with all kind of people even he don’t know them, but for me it’s to much. I prefer to talk with one person i know.
About funerals: A dear T1 friend of mine (who I don’t think knows about DYT, but maybe….) lost her husband to esophageal cancer nearly 6 years ago. She wore a bright, floral sundress to the funeral. That’s right, the widow wore a bright, floral sundress! We were 36 years old at the time, so maybe our youth had something to do with it….but she looked lovely, and I’m sure she felt better not having to wear black. She was (and still is!) an inspiration.
Wow what a testament to her truth! So beautiful, thank you for sharing it.
Gosh what Marcy said about committing herself then thinking ‘I can’t do this! I don’t want to do this!’ is my mum to a tee! She does that All. The. Time. I’m still trying to work out if she is a 1/3 or 3/1 !!
Thank you both for such an enlightening session. I always saw Marcy as the more quiet and stayed 1/4, and Jaleah as the bubbly and super social expert. Hearing from you both on how you interact with others has been a real eye opener, and re-affirming.
Marcy, your explanation regarding living our secondary, really hit home. I suffer from depression, and when especially ill, I withdraw and become super negative. I need someone to help pull me back into the light to recover.
Thank you, both.
Wow! Marcy just amazed me with saying how important it is for a 1/4 to honor their 4 in their homes as well. And since we’re open to other people and their energies our space can get cluttered easily. That really resonated with me. I loved that these two ladies are 1/4 and are so different. So thankful for this video!
Thank you for sharing Carla! This is Kathy from Carol’s support team. We appreciate hearing from you! Enjoy!
I am sure this has been said but die a white slip. Brown or navy or any dark tint.
