As two Enneagram Fours, Andrew and I get personal about the strengths and weaknesses of our type and how it has impacted our lives over the years. In this episode, you'll hear about the Enneagram Four's:
- True gifts to the world
- Inner critic and how it plays out in daily life

You'll also learn an important tip of what NOT to do when a four is melancholic. It will change how you approach the fours in your life.
