Grey’s Anatomy: Arizona Robbins - Type 7w6

Arizona is cheerful, upbeat and carefree. She has a positive attitude and wants to brighten the days of sick children which is why she specialises in Pediatrics.

At her best, Arizona is focused and committed to her job at the hospital. She is balanced when handling the stresses and seriousness of her work and still maintains an optimistic demeanour which cheers her patients up. She is supportive and stands by Callie throughout her pregnancy and is determined to be in Sofia’s life.

At her worst, Arizona pushes people who are close to her away and loses her positivity. She becomes more self-centred and resents those around her, which leads to her becoming closed-off and cold. She makes impulsive decisions that are reckless and greatly change her whole relationship with Callie.

Arizona has a tendency of avoiding negative feelings in many situations and finding her true feelings festering and bubbling to the surface. When she finally talks about her emotions it can become moments where she lashes out and will say extreme things to others. When she is leaving to go to New York she doesn’t want any sappy goodbyes as she knows it will bring out emotions in herself that she doesn’t want to share or feel. Another time we see her emotions come out is when she blames Callie for the loss of her leg and it greatly strains their relationship as a result of her harbouring these feelings. It takes a long time for her to verbalise these feelings to Callie and for her to understand how Callie felt, but also for Callie to understand what losing her leg represented to Arizona.

Arizona moves from experience to experience and loves adventure. She is excited by challenges and approaches all new situations with an optimistic attitude. When she first arrives at Seattle Grace, Bailey is immediately standoffish towards her and a bit blunt. However, she remains positive and wins Bailey over. When questioned by Alex as to how she seems to have no feelings, she explains that the field she is in requires her to have an upbeat manner or she wouldn’t be able to do her work for the children.

Arizona’s relationship with Callie shows many positive and negative sides of her personality. She genuinely loves Callie and shows she wants to stick by her, even when things have not gone to plan. She enjoys being a mother to Sofia and tolerates having Sloan in their lives, despite not being fond of him. However, she also has many issues and insecurities about Callie which leads to her making rash decisions without thinking about how it will hurt Callie.

Arizona has a wing 6 as she is more child like and imaginative than a wing 8 tends to be.

Tri-type: 7w6 - 2w3 - 9w1

Some quotes to describe Arizona’s motivations:

"So if you don’t mind, I’m gonna keep talking relationships and rainbows and crap. And I’m gonna make plans for tomorrow. 'Cause that’s what you do, Karev. You make plans. You have to. You turn your back on the tiny coffins and you face forward. To the next kid."

"You will treat people with kindness and respect. And you will start with yourself."

"I love you so much and I can't live without you and our 10 kids."

“My family used to move around a lot, which was really scary. But whenever we'd get somewhere new, first thing, my dad would... my dad would take me skating. And so no matter where I was in the world, that would stay the same. And I... I felt safe. I did it in college, um, and I did it in med school, and then I did it when I first got my job here. Um, I worked with kids, and so it kind of made them feel safe, too. And then I was in an accident. And they told me that... that I may lose my leg. And all I could think about was... I'll never be able to skate again. And a lot of my life would change, but that seemingly tiny thing felt like... I felt like my whole life was being taken away from me. And that all the stuff that my dad had given me, you know, all the magic and all the safety, was just gonna be gone. And so I made my wife promise me that she would not let them take my leg. No... matter... what. But then it came down to my life or my leg. And they needed her consent to amputate. I am so lucky... that she and my doctors could clearly see what I couldn't. And you know what? I skated again. And my worst fear was wrong. And the only thing I really lost was my leg. And I would've died if I'd have kept it. And I have so much joy in my life right now. More than I could possibly imagine. I have a... I have a healthy daughter, and I have work that I love, and I'm okay. I'm... I'm great. And I want that for you. I want that for your life, too.”

"I had to figure out how to be me."

"Sometimes we try to make things better and have no idea that we're actually causing more pain."

"I like my life. I like it the way it is and I don't want it to change. I thought I liked it with you in it. I hope I am not wrong."

“You're not gonna talk me out of moving, and it's just gonna make us sad, and that's not what today is about, so just shut up and eat your cereal.”

Grey’s Anatomy: Jackson Avery - Type 3w2

Jackson is kind, confident and stubborn. Like Meredith, he struggles with coming from a family with high medical pedigree and wants to distance himself from his family’s achievements to make his own mark on the world.

At his best, Jackson looks out for the people he loves and is very protective and supportive of them. He is less concerned with his own feelings and tries to reassure and help the people he cares about (integrating to 6). Jackson is very close to his friends at the hospital and treats them like family.

At his worst, Jackson can be brash and doesn’t value the opinions or feelings of others. He sticks to himself and becomes less proactive and driven in achieving his desires (disintegrating to 9).

Jackson is very committed to becoming a surgeon and wants to prove himself to his family. When he first arrives after the merger, he doesn’t tell anyone about his connections to Harper Avery as he wants to impress them and make it on his own. He has a goal of being the best doctor and is willing to flirt with attendings to further his own interests. For example, he decides to flirt with Teddy to try and make her give him more surgeries (but Teddy sees through it). He also tries very hard to make the Mark like him and runs various errands while on his service. He believes that by doing these actions he will gather more opportunities in the O.R.

Jackson ends up being mentored by Mark and specialises in plastic surgery. Despite his early failures, he becomes a good surgeon and eventually is the chief of plastic surgery. While working with Mark, he grew very fond of him and looked up to him. He wanted to be like him and wanted to make him proud of the work he was doing.

Jackson has a very strong bond with April and despite the ups and downs of their relationships they always remain friends while coparenting their daughter. Jackson shows that he deeply cares about April, but feels like she doesn’t give him the attention he needs.

Jackson shows his wing 2 as he is more people-oriented and personable than a 3w4 would be.

Tri-type: 3w2 - 9w1 - 6w7

Some quotes to describe Jackson’s motivations:

“In my family, I'm the pretty one. My eyes and my smile, my body. I mean, you should see me without a shirt on. It's kinda ridiculous. But my family is smart, driven, and crazy over-achievers. And they look like they're smart. They don't look like me, which has its perks. Except that my family treated me like I was pretty. They expected nothing from me, ever. Never pushed me, never thought to. So I had to push myself. Hard.”

"I love everything about you. Even the things I don't like, I love."

“We’re petrified of saying too much or saying it wrong. When the truth is, the only wrong thing you can say is nothing at all.”

Catherine: “Nepotism is for the weak.” Jackson: “That's what my birthday cards always said.”

Grey’s Anatomy: Miranda Bailey - Type 1w2

Miranda is helpful, honest and principled. She is hardworking and builds strong relationships with her patients and always maintains her professionalism.

At her best, Bailey is incredibly supportive to her interns, colleagues and family. Even though she doesn’t agree with a lot of the choices her interns make and scolds them for making her look bad, she will always come to their defence and stick up for them. When Izzy cuts Denny’s LVAD wire she doesn’t abide by the actions of Izzie and is hurt by the secrecy and lack of protocol that is followed. However, she is one of the people who helps Izzie get back into being a surgeon.

At her worst, Miranda is rigid and becomes frustrated with others for not living up to her ideals. When she is passed over as chief resident she takes out her anger on Callie as she feels it was her right to be the person chosen. She is passive aggressive and refuses to help Callie at first but as time passes realises it is the right thing to help Callie. When she is going through her divorce we also see some negative characteristics of Miranda and she begins to throw herself into work and become more critical and judgmental of others.

Bailey struggles with balancing her family life and her ambitions of being a surgeon. She is hardworking and tries to have the best of all scenarios when her first son is born. Her first husband Tucker begins to resent her ambitions and need to be a surgeon and it begins to drive them apart. Miranda begins feeling like she is not ‘good’ enough and she is somehow letting someone down at home or work. Ultimately they split after Tucker offers an ultimatum to Bailey about her work or her family. She later meets and has a relationship with Ben and due to their similar professions are able to understand each other.

Miranda is a hard taskmaster and when she is mentoring her interns is very concerned with teaching them the ways of the hospital correctly. When she was an intern she was much more timid and observed and learnt many lessons she wants to pass on to the interns. She befriended a nurse and learnt the importance of treating patients with respect and fairly and she gets very frustrated when she sees unprofessional behaviour in the workplace. The chief was her mentor and saw great potential in her and she wants to do the same for others. At times, she wants to control the actions of her staff and finds it challenging when they differ in opinion from her but will often win them over with her passion for medicine.

Bailey has a wing 2 as she is more expressive of her opinions than a wing 9 maybe.

Tri-type: 1w2 - 6w7 - 2w1

Some quotes to describe Miranda’s motivations:

“I am going to walk in there and tell the truth. I deserve it and if any one of them has the misguided impression that there is any choice at all in this matter, I will set that person on the righteous path before he or she can reveal him or herself as a moron.”

“On their death bed, nobody wishes they'd worked more. That's the traught little phrase people tried out when they want to play hookey, or spend too much money, or shame working parents for missing their kids' soccer game for a board meeting. On your death bed, no one wishes they'd worked more. Tell that to the people who love their work. It's not about whether you spend your life in a boardroom, your bedroom, or a beach with a mai tai in Maui, when you look back on your life, the only thing that matters is: Did you spend it doing what you love, with the people you love? Were you happy? Did you make the most of this beautiful, terrifying, messed up life? Did you let go of all the things that held you back? So you can hold on to what matters most.”

Miranda: “I have five rules. Memorize them. Rule number one: Don't bother sucking up. I hate you. That's not gonna change. Trauma protocol, phone list, pagers, nurses will page you. You will answer every page at a run. A run! That's rule number two. Your first shift starts now and lasts 48 hours. You're interns, grunts, nobodies, bottom of the surgical food chain. You run labs, write orders, work every second night until you drop, and don't complain. On-call rooms. Attendings hog them. Sleep when you can where you can, which brings me to rule number three. If I'm sleeping, don't wake me unless your patient is dying. Rule four: The dying patient better not be dead when I get there. Not only will you have killed someone, you woke me for no reason. We clear? Yes?” Meredith: “You said five rules. That was only four.” Miranda: “Rule number five: When I move, you move.”
