Celia Murnock (SP/SO 6w5 613) is a Type 6 whose intellectual clarity and emotional precision root our conversation in complexity: her passion for biomedical anthropology becomes a metaphor for her life’s work — finding and teasing out gray areas in a world that demands black-and-white answers. We trace the architecture of Six through her eyes: the struggle to trust her own mind, the looping vigilance against being naïve, and the quiet grief of feeling like the adult in the room since childhood. The conversation moves fluidly between micro and macro, from early recognitions of injustice to the moral orientation that propels her forward — often at great personal cost. We explore the distinctions between 6w5 and 6w7: the cagey inner withdrawal, the instinct to "snip the threads" before attachment hurts too much, and the quiet resistance to being shaped by others’ expectations.LINKSLearn at The Enneagram Schoolhttps://theenneagramschool.com/Intro Coursehttps://www.theenneagramschool.com/intro-enneagram-courseGet Typedhttps://www.enneagrammer.com/Sinsomnia Podcast (Dreams)https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sinsomnia/id1684154994House of Enneagramhttps://www.youtube.com/@houseofenneagram TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Intro02:42 - Interests and pathways in education and career.
