How Your Enneagram Type Runs Your Life: The "Job" You Never Signed Up For
Have you ever realized you're doing a job you never actually applied for? Maybe you're the one who keeps the peace, fixes what's wrong, takes care of everyone, stays prepared, or makes sure everything gets done. In this Enneagram episode, Sandy looks at the nine types as different "jobs," the patterns each of us can fall into without even realizing it.
This episode explores:
- The invisible job each Enneagram type can take on, and what it's really trying to get, avoid, or protect us from
- What these patterns can cost us when they run on autopilot
- A reflection question for each type to help you notice your own pattern in real time
- A simple process for catching yourself in these patterns, and what support looks like to help you
- How to start choosing your patterns on purpose instead of running them by default
Your Enneagram type doesn't have to run your life. The more clearly you can see the pattern, the more choice you have about what happens next.
