We’re back where we left off in the M9GA series with more POTUS. Our 9s start off with their experience of fear of loss and separation. How the 9 connection to everything is in opposition with the over-specificity of 4. The slippery fish quality of 9s not wanting to be pinned down, and the 9’s need for space in relationships. We check in with how our 9s are dealing with corona anxiety and their line to 6. And we wrap up with how we tricked our 9s into doing this podcast.

Two texan sexual 6s are with us this week to get into the guts of 6. We start out with their boldness and attraction to high pressure situations. Unpacking what Naranjo’s sexual 6 ‘Strength and Beauty’ means. The 6 line to 3 and the need to ‘earn it’ through hard work and prove they're deserving. 6 anti-narcissism vs 4’s ‘i’m the gift’. Why 6s anticipate criticism, put themselves down, and self-sabotage. How 6s can overcome their inner critic and allow themselves to be great. We wrap up with some clear differences between 6s and 4s.

Two soc-last 1s are with us this week to dive into the heart of the loneliest number sexy librarian. We get into how Jamie’s critiques were the genesis of the collage exercise. And how Mary ruined John’s life. The differences between a 1w9 and a 1w2. How our 1s experience rigidity vs chaos and their orientation to aesthetics and creativity. What sexual 1s are like, and how soc-last 1s navigate the social realm. And finally, how our 1s experience judgement and self-control.

A social last 3 and a social 3 are with us to complete a threesome of 3s with Nancy. We start off with how our 3s are stuffing their feelings and anxiety during quarantine. How 3s reflexively adapt to others and what authenticity means to them. The hero’s journey of 3s becoming who they were meant to be. The sense of being a conduit of something greater. And finally, 3s and the sexual instinct.

We’re joined by a social 2 and social-last 2 to help us dig underneath the sugary sweet hearts of 2s. How they reject their own needs and only see themselves through serving others. The difficulty of 2s to own up to their own selfishness and potential to cause harm. Their intense love for connection. 2s and the sexual instinct. Wrapping up with our 2s lending their relational expertise to a touchy situation.

We’ve got a trifecta of sexual 8s with Paula and Siena joining us to discuss the soul and heart of 8. The body as a container of expansive energy. How 8s dissociate through action and immediacy. Why 8s feel no one has their back, and how they self-negate as rejection types. And finally, what it’s like being a sexual 8. Wrapping up with an epic sexual 8 story.

Two social 5s, Rio and Yamira, join us to discuss what it means for 5 to have an intellectual orientation. Their disconnect and alienation from the body. 5 vs 9 in conflict and stress. The detachment and not giving-ness of 5s. And how social 5s connect.

A prince and a princess are with us this week to discuss all things type 4. We take a look at the ‘churning’ frustration and reactivity of 4s. How hatred and rejection ties into the self-differentiation of 4. The artifice of crafting a self-image and why 4s aren’t authentic as you might think. The overt differences between 4w3 and 4w5. And what the type 4 perspective has to contribute during these dark town COVID-19 times.

We’re joined by Social types, Laura and Alexandra, to discuss the contrast between Social-first and Social-last, highlighting David’s taboo story in BHE 011 (13:44). How Social types frame around potential reactions and how Social-lasts view connection. And finally, Social types experiencing loneliness.

Farah, a 6 with the 693 tritype, joins us to discuss her experience being triple attachment. Why 369s find it difficult to find their inner voice. The struggle of comparing to others vs wanting to be unique. And finally, why 6s have a thing for punishment.
