Everyone needs an Enneagram 6 in their lives.

6s are trustworthy and team-team oriented, and their need for certainty means they recognize risk and ask important questions.

But the Loyal Skeptic’s worst-case scenario planning can also be a curse, tipping their healthy doubt into paralyzing fear territory.

On this episode of The Leadership Formula, I offer an overview of the Enneagram 6, explaining why they value security and belonging, yet struggle to trust others.

I discuss how a 6’s fear of being unprepared can lead to irrational overthinking and describe how they can lean on their wings to gain perspective and see the good in people.

Listen in to understand why projection is a 6’s go-to defense mechanism and learn how a Loyalist can leverage their Enneagram lines to take inspired action and deeply connect with others.
