In this heartfelt and empowering episode of The Enneagram Edge, transformational coach, artist, and author Rachel Linnett joins me to explore the gifts and growth edges of being a Type 6 entrepreneur. Rachel—author of Droplets of Love: The Art of Loving Yourself into Freedom—opens up about her journey from a fear-driven inner world to one rooted in self-trust, compassion, and grounded calm.

With over two decades of experience guiding others on their path to healing, Rachel brings wisdom born from her own transformation. We talk about the complex relationship Type 6s have with fear, trust, and authority—and how these challenges become pathways to resilience, courage, and accessing one’s inner guidance.

Whether you're a Type 6 or love someone who is, this episode is a powerful yet gentle reminder that fear doesn’t have to hold you back—in fact, when you learn to welcome it instead of resist it, fear can become a wise ally on your path forward.

In This Episode we cover the following: 

• Rachel’s discovery of her Type 6 identity (1:40)
 • Recognizing fear instead of denying it (3:00)
 • The challenges of delegating and trusting others (6:36)

What the inner critic really is and how it affects entrepreneurs (1:15)

• Type 2 – “If you’re not helping, you’re not valuable.” → Reframe: You’re worthy even when receiving. (7:46)
• Type 3 – “You’re only as good as your last win.” → Reframe: You’re valuable even when resting. (10:14)
• Type 4 – “You’ll never be enough.” → Reframe: Celebrate what’s already working. (12:28)
• Type 5 – “You don’t know enough yet.” → Reframe: Share before you're ready.(15:56)
• Type 6 – “You can’t trust yourself.” → Reframe: What if it works? (19:05)

In this episode of the Enneagram Edge, Margot gets personal and vulnerable about a recent moment that sent her nervous system into full "what if" mode. When a simple misstep off the porch led to a painful, swollen foot just days before an international trip, her Enneagram Type 6 wiring kicked in hard—catastrophizing, spiraling, and berating herself for being "careless."

She shares how this wasn't just about a physical injury—but an invitation to practice shifting from panic to presence, self-blame to self-trust, and over-reliance on external reassurance to connecting with her inner knowing.

This episode is a compassionate, unfiltered peek into how fear plays out in real life for Type 6s—and the small, grounding rituals that can help you come back to center when life throws you a curveball (or a sprain).

What You'll Learn:

• The misstep that triggered a panic state. (1:54)
• How quickly the "what ifs" hijack the brain. (2:50)
• The Type 6 pattern of seeking reassurance—and how Margot leaned into it (with her mom and friends).  (9:00)
• Why fear doesn’t actually help healing. (10:32)
• Getting out of self-berating and into self-compassion. (11:31)
• Cultivating self-trust and listening to inner guidance. (12:32)
• How to move from panic to presence. (15:27)
• Staying clear of the temptation to pivot due to fear. (18:02)

Today’s episode is for every entrepreneur who’s ever felt confident in their offer—but unsure in their energy. We’re diving deep into the inner game of sales and how your Enneagram type quietly shapes the way you show up (or don’t) when it’s time to make the offer.

Sales isn’t just strategy—it’s energy, self-trust, and identity. And when your Enneagram type’s core fear is running the show, your confidence takes a hit and self-sabotage creeps in.

In this episode, I break down:

• The mindset behind magnetic sales conversations
• Why your type’s inner saboteur hijacks your voice and visibility
• How to shift into authentic confidence—without pretending to be someone you’re not
• One powerful reframe for each Enneagram type to sell with more ease and alignment
• A journaling prompt to help you spot and shift the belief that’s blocking your sales mojo

Whether you’re a perfectionist Type 1, a heart-centered Type 2, a strategic Type 3—or anywhere on the Enneagram—you’ll walk away with insight into your deepest sales block and your greatest inner edge.
