Positive Outlook Grouping: "The Inner Tug-of-War"


Listen Later

This episode explores the Enneagram's Harmonic Triad—specifically the Positive Outlook group.

In the Enneagram, the Harmonic Triads describe how we respond when things don't go the way we want. The Positive Outlook group—Types 2, 7, and 9—tend to cope with conflict, disappointment, or pain by reframing, focusing on what's good, or moving toward possibility rather than sitting in the negative.

But "positive" doesn't mean shallow or naive. Each of these types has a distinct strategy for staying upbeat—and each comes with its own strengths and blind spots.

This panel features Richard Haynes (Type 9), Kimberly Holt (Type 2), and Sister Anna-Camille (Type 7). We hear how each experiences conflict, avoids or reframes discomfort, and how they gravitate toward optimism.
