Do you constantly run through ‘what if’ scenarios? Do you feel paralyzed by decisions, even ones as simple as choosing throw pillows? Do you want to be prepared for everything, just in case?
Welcome to the mind of an Enneagram 6!
In this episode of the Life As series, I sit down with Merran Tatum, a thoughtful and deeply reflective Enneagram Type 6, to explore what everyday life looks like when you view the world through the lens of fear, safety, and responsibility. We unpack:
- The mental toll of always preparing for the worst case scenario
- The challenge of decision-making and the fear of making the wrong choice
- Why being a 6 isn’t about control—it’s about security
- The gift of awareness and care for others that makes 6s deeply loyal and reliable
Merran puts a day in the life of a 6 perfectly when she says, “My goal is not control. My goal is to be safe no matter what comes at me. 6s aren’t all about controlling everything and being so scared that we can’t do anything. It’s just making sure there is a soft place to land should we come up against negative things.”
Whether you are a Type 6 or love someone who is, tune in now for empathy, insight, and practical wisdom for all things Enneagram 6! Don’t forget to follow for more Enneagram insights!
