In this episode of the Awareness to Action Enneagram podcast, Mario Sikora, María José Munita and Seth “Creek” Creekmore are joined by Dr. Joel Rothaizer, a Master-Certified executive coach and organizational consultant, and Board Certified Psychologist in Organizational & Business Consulting Psychology. Joel brings his personal insight as they discuss the vice, virtue and fixation for the Enneagram Type Three. This type is driven by the need to be seen as valuable, and therefore creates an image of themselves. However, what we typically don’t see is the anxiety behind the behavior.
“And they’re being portrayed in such an unfair way. I think the most superficial thing is not Threes, it’s the way they’re portrayed by many, many people out there.” -María José [06:32]
“Oftentimes, we ostracize the things that we don’t like about ourselves. So what is that sort of thing in the Enneagram community? Why do we have such an issue with Three energy?” -Creek [07:54]
“It’s striving to feel outstanding, but it’s striving to feel outstanding in the eyes of others. I mean, I think Enneagram Three hell would be to do something remarkably outstanding and have nobody know it.” -Joel [30:08]
“One of the things that Threes are very good at is being productive in a way that is meaningful.” -Mario [43:24]
