  Speaker 1: Are you looking for a way to gain clarity about
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: who you are and how you fit and interact with
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the world? The Enneagram test is just for you. With
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: philosophical and mystic roots blended with science, it's a popular
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: typology that assigns everyone a personality type. The American Journal
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: of Psychiatry defines the system as a personality theory describing
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: nine strategies by which the psyche develops a worldview and
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: relates to self and others. Ian Morgan Cron, a psychotherapist
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: and Enneagram teacher explains, We adopt these in childhood as
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: a way to cope, protect ourselves and navigate the new
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: world of relationships in which we find ourselves. The Enneagram
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: is unique because it maps your psyche by breaking down
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: personalities in terms of motivations, your basic fears, and even
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: your most suited career. Here are the nine types of Enneagram.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Type one, idealist. You interact with the world by striving
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to be perfect. Also known as the reformers, you seek
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: moralistic behavior and reform. You're naturally positive with a heart
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: for helping others. You go by the book and make
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: sure that you're always doing the right thing. As a result,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: it's difficult for you to delegate or take risks. Type two, caregiver.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Diana Redmond, a fractioning Enneagram teacher and coach says, a
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: two's focus is to take care of others' needs in
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: an effort to feel loved and accepted. As emotional thinkers
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and hard workers, you are extremely attentive to helping other
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: people in any way you can. This desire to be
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: fully loved and accepted comes from your fear of being
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: unwanted or unloved by those around you. A two may
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: believe consciously or subconsciously that love is only gained and
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: earned by serving others. Type three, performer. The Enneagram official
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: site calls them the achiever. If you're a three, this
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: shows you're driven by success and a desire to look
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: as good as possible to others. You seek accomplishment and
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: admiration by setting big goals and doing what it takes
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: to succeed in order to earn validation. This helps mask
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: your basic fear of being regarded as a failure or worthless.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: According to Redmond, your goal is to be perceived as
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: successful in the eyes of others. Type four, creative. Redmond says,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: people who get type four are artistic with an eye
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: for beauty. Fours are sensitive souls with a passion for
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: various art forms. And so you make great writers, designers, actors,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and artists. The basic desire of the type four is
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: to build an individual and authentic identity and to express
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: it in the world. Fours may feel misunderstood if others
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: fail to recognize their unique identifying traits. Type five, thinker.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Type fives have earned a reputation as the absent-minded professor.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: They're excellent deep thinkers and make great engineers, scientists, and scholars.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: If you get a type five, you're introspective and thoughtful.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: The most basic desire of the Enneagram type five is
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: to feel helpful and competent. So you passionately pursue knowledge
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: and gain new skills. Fives often prioritize developing their own
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: intellect over most other things in life. You guard against
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: your basic fear of being incompetent by withdrawing emotionally and
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: physically from others. This may make you feel safer, but
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: can also lead to loneliness. Type six, loyalist. Type sixes
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: perform well as bankers, professors, nurses, and consultants. According to
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the Enneagram Institute website, the most basic desire of the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: type six is to feel secure, which you seek through
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: loyalty to others. The basic fear of the type six
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: is losing personal support and stability. You crave predictable, safe environments.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Sixes tend to have an expect the worst, hope for
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: the best mentality. Type seven, adventurer. Here we have our
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: upbeat travel agents, designers, and diehard photography fans. As type sevens,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: you want to live life to the fullest and experience
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: all the world has to offer. You desire to feel
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: stimulated and engaged. You go to great lengths to seek
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: excitement and joy from new experiences. FOMO causes you to
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: avoid schedules and concrete planning to allow for last minute opportunities.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: You appreciate a positive, open-minded attitude and out-of-the-box ideas. Type eight, protector.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Think lawyers, directors, or sales experts. Type eights are confident,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: attention-commanding leaders, skilled in quick, effective decision-making. Your need to
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: have control of your own fate stems from your desire
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: to protect and defend yourself as well as others from injustice. However,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: at times, their need for control can be overwhelming, says Redmond.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Your subconscious belief that vulnerability equals weakness makes you avoid
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: it at all costs. This is because your greatest fear
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: lies in being controlled or hurt by others. And type nine. Peacekeeper,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: do you seek to avoid conflict at all costs? Type
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: nines seek to feel safe, comfortable, and at peace with themselves.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: They're adaptable and agreeable teammates dedicated to considering multiple perspectives.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Internal peace is the most basic desire of the Enneagram
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: type nine. The basic fear of the type nine is
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: that you may lose or be separated from others. You
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: prevent this by remaining peaceful and avoiding conflict, potentially adapting
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: to others' preferences rather than stating your own. By understanding
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: your type, you can let go of habitual patterns that
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: hold you back and open up to your own inherent gifts.
