In this episode of the Awareness to Action Enneagram podcast, Mario Sikora, María José Munita and Seth "Creek" Creekmore talk about the subtypes for the Enneagram Type Four, “Striving to Feel Unique.” They share examples of this misunderstood type and the pattern of expression for each subtype.

“In a way, I think their emotional intensity is a gift and a burden at times.” -María José [01:22]

“For the preserving Four, we can think of their environment as a work of art.” -Mario [13:46]

“I get this a lot that Fours are delicate in some way. Sure, sometimes people feel like they have to walk on eggshells around them, but I think Fours are very, very resilient in turning something around eventually and in keeping on going despite pain and suffering, whether that’s self-inflicted or actual external inflicted” -Creek [54:59]
