If You Really Knew Me
Friday, November 15, 2024 - 33 minutes
In this enlightening episode of "If You Really Knew Me," hosts Kim Willey and Ben Sorrells delve into the core traits, strengths, and challenges faced by Type 9 individuals, aptly named the Peacemakers. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural references, the hosts explore the profound lessons all Enneagram types can learn from a healthy Type 9, emphasizing patience, the importance of having one's voice heard, and the creation of safe spaces for open communication.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
1. ORIENTATION TO TIME: Type 9s are past-oriented, focused on history and maintaining inner peace.
2. TYPE 9 TRAITS: Type 9s are exceptional mediators and leaders due to their ability to understand multiple perspectives and facilitate peaceful communication. However, their core struggle with sloth and indolence can lead to disengagement if not managed well.
3. LEARNING FROM A HEALTHY TIME 9: All Enneagram types can benefit from embracing personal desires, recognizing the importance of their voice, creating safe spaces for dialogue, exercising patience, and being gentle in interactions, reflecting the concept of "truth in love."
