E30 - The Superpowers and Liabilities of Enneagram Heart Triad


Listen Later

Katie and Alan discuss the major attributes connected to the Heart Triad in the Enneagram (Types 2, 3, and 4). They point out their abilities and superpowers which include: empathy and understanding for Type 2, achieving goals and work ethic for Type 3, and a deep emotional understanding and authenticity for Type 4.

They also identify potential liabilities for each type, emphasizing the need for self-awareness and balance in embodying these traits. They particularly emphasize the duality of holding both positive attributes (superpowers) and negative traits (liabilities) simultaneously.

They further emphasize the importance of self-awareness, practice, and inviting feedback to ensure that these types can contribute their best to their teams and personal lives. The hosts talk about the need to establish a healthy culture that recognizes and appreciates the emotional strengths of the Heart Triad.
