So many helpful insights in this episode, it is a gold mine. About 7 years ago I found your podcast and I credit it with helping me at a foundational level awaken to myself and question and understand my unconscious mind and way of being. I have taught my teenagers about MBTI and they also have talked about it with their friends. I became interested in the enneagram through listening to your interview with Beatrice Chestnut and that got me down a 4 year rabbit hole of more understanding. Today on a long road trip my 14 yr old daughter was analyzing herself and her type and it was a fabulous conversation which reminded me how much I loved your podcast which brought me to this episode to listen to as I drove. I appreciate your clear and precise way of communicating as well as the practical applications. I am at a crossroads in my life where after 25 years of raising a family at home full time I am facing my youngest going to elementary school and wondering what is next. I have always wanted to be some kind of coach and this podcast has given me a lot of things to think about regarding that goal and how it really is living myself to reach for my dreams. I have been striving and searching to find ways to be more creative in my life (enneagram teaches that’s the way the they type 2 gets out of her fixation) and this podcast just helps me realize that my true desires to influence culture and people in positive ways and help them realize their potential is a creative outlet that demands to be heard.
It also helped me see the 3yr old function, introverted thinking, in a way where I can understand why it’s causing self criticism and doubt and how to accept it will always be there and learn from it but realize it is insecure.Seriously 5 stars! I can’t believe I can access this info for free! I’m off to search the podcasts I’ve missed to get more nuggets, but also realizing I need to let this one simmer in my mind and reflect more deeply on it as I strive to access my intuition for my life.
One question I would love to know is how can I stop being so obsessed with my home being organized and clean. I have unrealistic expectations, nobody in my household really cares as much as I do and it’s a loosing battle that costs me spending time giving energy to my higher functions and giving ultimately self-love. Is it my 10-yr old function that is just trying to organize my outer world so I can think better. That’s is my motivation I think.
Thanks so much for all you do. I already have your book and my kids and I love it and have marked it up. I even lead a group mini-class about it with 10 of my friends and they all said it was super insightful.
Thank you so much for the information on the ENFJ – I never completely related to this type before because I am “almost” an INFJ but this podcast made me realize and begin to celebrate all of my complexities! I never thought about my 10 year sensing self, but that’s totally me! I need to get out and see new sites (and sometimes I can overindulge). As a leader, I love the idea of being a “diplomat” rather than being scared of conflict and people pleasing all the time. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and understanding, very helpful 🙏🏾
…another one from me as the insights keep coming…I realise that I thought everyone saw what I see. I assumed everyone images future scenarios in detail and felt the vibe in a room or family or having felt the vibe, could see the relationship train wreck that was going to unfold. At times I also discounted or even mocked my way of seeing when other people told me I was crazy or that I worry to much..‘what you said isn’t going on at all..your just being negative’. I would go ‘oh yeah, that’s me crazy old Ian". Two practical things from this for me…I don’t have to share the inner workings of my mind, I can just offer the outcome or offer a suggestion. And the second, is to STOP playing small on my type strengths just so I can get a shot of harmony…thanks again for your work generally and this podcast, Ian
Hi Antonia and Joel, I have been listening to your podcasts for a couple of years now but this one just blew me away. I am an 66 year old ENFJ. For alot of my life I have over-given (sometime when other people didn’t really ask for it!) and feel like I spent many years driven unconsciously to be, do and think what I thought other people expected me to be, do and think. My critical voice felt more like a big, tough, slobby teenage thug rather than a 3 year old! Happily, over a period of probably 10-15 years I have been slowly growing into greater freedom, acceptance and enjoyment of myself and my type. Your work has been an important part of this by given framing and deep and solid foundations for my experience. This podcast absolutely nailed it…are you sure we arent in the Truman Show and you guys have just be secretly videoing my inner world! Antonia, the depth, richness and clarity of your teach on ENFJ is amazing and has given my such a solid understanding of my life experience. Joel, I just love your added insights and your inspiration as well. Thanks yo you guys for this. You bring a wonderful gift into the world, Ian
