With Valentine's Day around the corner, let's visit some of the lunacy that happens in relationships. Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, coach, mediator and trainer, the delightful Matt Ahrens (Self-pres 9), shares his insights into each type's attachment issues. Matt disputes a lot of traditional Attachment Theory and says the whole thing with attachment is a lot more nuanced (which the Enneagram can account for). There are in fact three distinct styles for each type. Get in touch with Matt if this sort of thing lights you up.
Instead of episode notes, here is Matt’s organisation of the Enneagram types and attachment styles:
Core attachment strategy, based on the dominant Center (wounded place)
234 - Anxious
567 - Avoidant
891 - Disorganised - simultaneous co-arising of both
Adaptive style, based on Hornevian groups (the non-wounded place)
126 - Anxious
378 - Disorganised
459 - Avoidant
Subtype layer
SP - Warm (Anxious)
SX - Hot (Disorganised)
SO - Cool (Avoidant)
To summarise:
Type 9 - Disorganised/Avoidant + subtype
Type 1 - Disorganised/Anxious + subtype
Type 2 - Anxious/ Anxious + subtype
Type 3 - Anxious/Disorganised + subtype
Type 4 - Anxious/Avoidant + subtype
Type 5 - Avoidant/Avoidant +subtype
Type 6 - Avoidant/Anxious + subtype
Type 7 - Avoidant/Disorganised + subtype
Type 8 - Disorganised/Disorganised +subtype

It was my joy to talk with Enneagram Godmother, Suzanne Stabile (Social 2) about her latest book, Journey to Wholeness, which along with Suzanne's unique teachings on the link between our types and stress/self-care, outlines a clear approach to balancing the Centers of Intelligence.

[26.25]How the dominant instinct/subtype changes [29.16]Suzanne on her love for reading and how it supports her repressed Center [32.17]Suzanne's next move: moral injury [35.19]Suzanne's very practical new Enneagram book: The Journey Toward Wholeness: Enneagram Wisdom for Stress, Balance, and Transformation: https://amzn.to/3w0HUn7

Possibly everything you've ever wanted to know about Diamond Inquiry but didn't want to ask. The very encouraging Diamond Approach teacher, Dominic Liber, has a special knack for teaching the mechanics of the central practice of the Diamond Approach. Do yourself a favour and read his book, Diving in the Inner Ocean - an Introduction to Personal Transformation using Diamond Inquiry. Dominic kindly took a break from writing his next book to answer some of my questions about this transformational practice that partners perfectly with the Enneagram.

[14.37]Why is knowing the Enneagram useful when it comes to practising Inquiry [18.38]Stages of what we can notice in Inquiry [25.35]A common mistake that happens when we start to Inquire [27.27]How does practising Inquiry feel? [30.28]Why do we do this again? [34.46]We demo Inquiry [35.35]Is there anything we shouldn't Inquire into? [41.56]Trauma and practising Inquiry [44.43]How do we know Inquiry is working? [46.55]Do we need a teacher and a group to practice Inquiry? [48.45]Come on Dom, what's your Enneagram type? [50.40]Links

Another absolute beaut of an Enneagram teacher, the amazingly generous and fun Deborah Ooten PhD (Sexual 8, though she doesn't use instinct categorisations in her teachings) shares about why she saw fit to pair Spiral Dynamics with the Enneagram. Deborah’s work has been pioneering in the field. I encourage everyone to have at least an awareness of her research, know about her fantasy self-help series, the Books of Nine, and consider participating in her upcoming course with the Shift Network.
What is Spiral Dynamics and who uses it? [2.20]The three kinds of change that happen to prompt evolution on the Spiral [9.25]Why did Deborah begin to teach Spiral Dynamics with the Enneagram? [15.05]What Deborah did with a bunch of Enneagram teachers at an IEA conference [20.13] How not to be a simplistic a-hole (like me) about the Spiral and the Enneagram [22.33]How does someone living in Blue, Orange and Yellow see the Enneagram (you can use this to figure out where you probably are on the Spiral)? [27.35] How do Riso and Hudson's Levels sit on the Spiral? [34.34]How Deborah found her way to the Fourth Way as a spiritual path [38.36]Find Deborah:

Gravian theory is a reference to Clare Graves, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_W._Graves whose work Don Beck and Chris Cowan built their Spiral Dynamics model on.Vmeme just means set of values. Values meme. 'Developmental allergy' is a fancy term for low development. 'We'/collective stages - Blue and Green.' Self-expressive' or Individualistic stages - Red and Orange.

This was an interesting interview to do with a gold standard Enneagram teacher who I have appreciated a lot since I came to study the Enneagram. Peter O’Hanrahan (Social Eight) is known worldwide in the field, especially for his teachings on how our type patterns show up in the body and emotions. Peter came to the Enneagram way back in 1978 as a counsellor and body therapist, so the orientation was always highly practical. He’s been associated with the Narrative Enneagram from the early days and still teaches their programmes.
Peter on the value of working on the body and the emotions [2.06]How he got into embodiment work [3.36]What exactly does building body awareness help us to do? [4.40]Why does it help us with relationships? [6.21]Just how do you get a Nine in touch with their anger (not a part of the scheduled lineup but couldn't resist asking)? [13.20]Type tour of the bodily characteristics of each type, starting with type One [17.10]Do the instinct types point to specific body armouring? [34.47]What gets on Peter's nerves about where the Enneagram is going? [37.40]Anything progressive about where the Enneagram is going? [38.58]What's getting Peter's attention these days about the Enneagram? [40.27]Peter's articles on these topics:

Spiritual teachers and corporate high-flyers/creatives, Co-founders of Upbuild, Rasanath Das (Social Three) and Hari Prasada Das (Social Four) talk about the Levels of Consciousness, the Riso/Hudson contribution to the Enneagram that Hari and Rasanath have decided to make central to their coaching and training work. The wisdom just flowed in this one. Glad I found such integrous teachers to cover a huge topic. Gratitude to Michael Sloyer for setting this up.

[18.13]Hari answers the question 'what exactly are the Levels of Consciousness? [21.29]Rasanath answers the question, 'can we actually lose our egos'? [22.51]Rasanath describes humility, the telltale quality of self-realized souls [24.55]Rasanath describes why the Levels of Consciousness continue to be so revolutionary [28.56]Hari on why the Levels was such an important contribution to the Enneagram [30.45]Hari on why Upbuild calls the stages Creative, Controlling and Destructive (rather than Healthy, Average and Unhealthy) [33.07]Rasanath answers the question 'can we diagnose ourselves accurately on the Levels'?[37.33]Rasanath answers the question, 'can we really rise up the Levels through effort alone'? [42.42]Hari describes the motto of his German teacher/mentor (one a lot of us have I think!) [46.53]Rasanath describes three layers of responsibility and why they are core to rising up the Levels [48.39] Hari on how to take responsibility on a practical level [51.27]Rasanath on using the Enneagram as a vertical development model in general [53.20]
