Summary
In order to truly use the Enneagram to better understand our own personality, it is important to have an understanding of, not just the unconscious motivations, but also the impact that subtypes and wings have on each type.
In part two of our conversation with CNN Political Analyst, Kirsten Powers, we dive into the role subtypes and wings play in determining your type.
In this episode, you'll discover:
-
how understanding unconscious motivations can help you find your type.
-
how the finer distinctions of subtypes and wings can make one type look completely different.
-
how friends and family pointing out your blind spots can help on your journey toward transformation.
