In this episode, Mario Sikora, TJ Dawe and TJ Ingrassia discuss “About a Boy,” starring Hugh Grant, Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette. The three hosts explore the questions, “Does the pursuit of pleasure lead to happiness? Can any man or woman truly be an island?” They also examine the characters, Will, Marcus, Fiona and Ellie, and their Enneagram Types.“As much a pursuit of happiness is part of the wiring of the Seven, the avoidance of unhappiness is just as critical.” - Mario Sikora [23:25]“Sevens tend to be pretty good improvisers. They think quickly. They think on their feet, and they pull the answer out of thin air and get the golden fleece... until they can’t.” - TJ Dawe [25:53]“It’s not super on the surface in the film, but it’s sort of implies a little bit that maybe Will has some unresolved daddy issues.” - TJ Ingrassia [55:26]TIMESTAMPS[00:00] Intro [00:29] This week’s movie: “About a Boy”[02:55] About the movie[06:40] Roger Ebert’s summary of the movie[14:59] Mario’s hypothesis regarding Will[23:02] Pursuit of pleasure[26:06] The good intention of the Seven[29:12] Distinguishing the Preserving Seven and the Five[36:36] “I Love You, Man” and “Knocked Up”[38:04] Marcus’s Enneagram Type[46:43] Fiona’s Enneagram Type[50:07] Ellie as a Type Eight[53:11] The power of empathy[56:52] The overall theme of the movie[1:00:59] OutroConnect with us:Awareness to ActionEnneagram on Demand The Awareness to Action Enneagram PodcastMario Sikora: IG: @mariosikoraWeb: mariosikora.comTJ Dawe:Web: tjdawe.caTJ Ingrassia:Web: tjingrassia.comYouTube: @TypeCast
