Allow me to diagram that sentence's syntax:
[My profile] is rather a {eclectic mixture of things} that isn't for the faint of heart
"is" modifies the text in brackets.
"isn't[sic]" modifies the text in curly braces, not the brackets.
ie. You seem to believe that you typed: "My profile, a rather eclectic mixture of things, isn't for the faint of heart", when that is not the case.
Regardless, you're arguing in confident ignorance of the fact you've used "a" instead of "an", as well.
