In this mini episode, Patria and Ro explore how Enneagram Type Fours experience the holidays—often feeling a mix of longing, emotional intensity, and the sense of being “out of step” with everyone else. They unpack how early patterns of attuning to what’s missing became a form of protection, and why this season can amplify comparison, nostalgia, or the ache for deeper connection.
They also gently name the longing at the heart of the Four—the desire to be understood and truly seen—and offers ways to soften into the present moment, honor emotions without getting swept away, and make space for grounded joy.
A tender, insightful companion for Fours and the people who love them.
