Listen "Discovering Type One!"
Episode Synopsis
What if you've spent years believing you were one type of person, only to discover you were something entirely different? Join me as I sit down with my dear friend Mary Shaw to uncover her Enneagram journey. Mary was first introduced to the Enneagram in the early 2000s but was mistakenly typed as a Six. This misidentification led to years of confusion until she finally sought accurate typing in 2017, only to discover she was a Type One. Mary opens up about her initial resistance and the complex process of recognizing her true self, shaped by her upbringing and internal sense of morality.Ever wondered what it truly means to be a Type One? Mary and I unravel the nuances of this personality type, touching on everything from obsessive cleanliness to the subtle expressions of anger. We discuss the obsessive habits and perfectionistic tendencies that often accompany being a self-preservation One. Mary shares candid stories about her self-critical nature and how these traits have impacted her relationships and daily life. To deepen your understanding, we explore the three subtypes of Type Ones—self-preservation, social, and sexual (one-to-one)—and how these influence their interactions and worldview.Join us for an insightful and heartfelt discussion that sheds light on the complexities and admirable qualities of Type One personalities.Are you curious about what your Enneagram is?Click here to buy the online Enneagram Test https://wendybusbycoaching.com/online-enneagram-testFor more Enneagram insights follow Wendy on Instagram @wendy_lifeandlove_coachwww.instagram.com/wendy_lifeandlove_coach/Are you ready to take the first step?
