ENNEAGRAM INTERVIEW | Type 1 "The Reformer"

[@caitlyndani3lle]

i’m also a SP 1w2 and woooowwww this was so crazy to listen to!!! it felt like she was reading my innermost thoughts!!

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Haha! Love it!

[@trustyourself-ashleyching3646]

Failures don’t make you bad. They help you get better.

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Yes!

[@elenaharris9341]

Thanks so much for sharing about the subtypes! This is the first place I've had it explained to me before. I am so similar to Claire. I am a 1w9,SP,SO. I loved learning all this! THANK-YOU.

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Glad it was helpful!

[@elizabethparish6223]

We don't see everything that's wrong, we see potential!

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Very true!

[@louisbilman595]

Nope, One's definitely see what's wrong. But it's very much true that one's see potential. Being that they are idealists One's are all about that. But they are often plagued by an obsession with what's wrong with everything. In a way I think they enjoy it!

[@Coneman3]

She's gorgeous.

[@njules6428]

She started talking about grace and brought me to tears...this girl is so gifted ❤ And I'm so glad i saw this video...it gave me a whole new outlook on type ones. They are really super cool, at least this one is! She said so many things that were just WOW. I am a type 4 and go to a 1 in health :)

[@trustyourself-ashleyching3646]

What a different energy than the 2!

[@MommieVentures]

As a fellow 1, she hit every nail on the head. I really enjoyed this and look forward to part 2!

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Awesome! When we are out of quarantine we will record part two!

[@MommieVentures]

@@enneagramandcoaching Looking forward to it!

[@traceymerton4577]

Hadn't realised how complicated it gets

[@gnirnia1773]

This is such a great series! Please bring on part 2 with Claire! She's so insightful.

[@jenniferleigh1674]

Girl, you NAILED IT. It's funny you said that you identify or think you're this or that depending on what you did..making you think well "Im bad" but that's not true. Im stuck in this cycle right now and have been as years (obsessively) identifying with my old self with blonde hair as my rough, rebellious, bad person SO I dyed my hair brown..but because of that I feel like I lost my self trying to hide? You truly helped me with that one line. because I made bad decisions with blonde hair as I worked on my personal growth process I thought dying my hair would change me entirely but still until I accept what my life was like it wont actually dissolve. Running from my mistakes and past arent going to disappear and I just need to accept and be ok with what was and grow from there,

[@lindsayboss7522]

Wow Claire! You are amazing! Thank you for your wisdom, inspiration, & making the world a better place! 💗💗🥰

[@ellea2541]

Yep, slackers REALLY annoy me! And yep, we bring the fixing on ourselves... But the alternative is to watch others do it sloppily or not at all! 😅 🙈

[@enneagramandcoaching]

😂

[@Cordelish]

1w2 - OMG, I LOVE TRAVELING! I love the prep work where I get to "pre-vacation" by researching sites, pre-booking reservations, and considering packing. It is like a puzzle for having fun. I will "schedule days" with loose themes and create fun printable itineraries. It is like having an assistant with the whole family the entire time. Then on the day, we can decide if we want to stick to the plans or opt for an adventure day where we just enjoy where we are. It is like two vacations in one.

[@Journey1968]

At such a young age, your guest was exceptionally eloquent and phenomenally self aware. As you two discussed things, I heard something I hadn’t heard before. I didn’t know we need all three subtype instincts. That all 3 instinctual subtypes can be very beneficial and useful. Who knew 🤷🏽‍♂️? I thought that the repressed instinct was either irrelevant or unnecessary. Exceptional content...Thank you!

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Thank you for sharing! Loved reading your comment :)

[@Gracejkay]

I’ve been trying to find out if I’m a 9w1 or a 1w9 recently because I must have a really strong wing so it’s hard to find out my core. I’m leaning more towards my core being a 1 now though, since watching and hearing a 1 speak from experience. I fear failure and making mistakes on an insane level, especially because I know God expects us to improve as people and to be good doers of the word. The most ironic part is, my name is Grace, and God has let’s me live up to my namesake by the fact I often give Grace to others who do me wrong, but I very rarely give myself the same courtesy. It’s something I’ve been trying to get over pretty much my entire life, because I’ve always known God was Gracious and forgiving to me, but I keep telling myself to not even get in a position of making those mistakes that require forgiveness, and then when I do something wrong, I feel awful. I’m always second guessing and checking my intentions and actions to make sure they are pure, and am constantly asking guidance and wisdom from Yahweh in order to avoid making bad decisions. It was really helpful to see a 1, although still very different from me, have so many similarities. Not only do I feel like I’m not alone, but I was thankful to hear another 1 repeat something I’ve always told myself: To give ourselves more Grace. Sometimes you can have other people who don’t struggle with the same fear tell you that, or you tell yourself that, but I felt it was really most helpful for me to hear it come from the perspective of another who understands the fear I have. This is my very long and complicated way of saying: I thank you both for this video!

[@katiew8511]

The inner critic about eloquence was my struggle today and why I searched and found this. It’s very validating.

[@nikkipanella6074]

I can relate to Claire soooo much! I am also a 1w2 SP. Everything she was talking about really hit home! Love how you both always tied in the Lord too!

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Love that!

[@konataizumi8350]

I'm a one wing two SP as well and I can relate so much with her.. so many people admire me for my "successes" in life yet I still criticize myself a lot. Insult me and it won't show that I'm affected but internally I think of what you said to me deeply. Because I always want to be good and perfect and i can be so hypocritical of myself.

[@Cordelish]

Another 1w2 - It drives me crazy when my two closest friends start a project with me and 5 minutes in are talking about all the flaws we can't overcome. My response is always ... we are still building. We have to fully build to see where we need to perfect. Also, you have to believe it can be done to do it ... I get called Hermione a lot.

[@jessicarogers2766]

I love where you connected being God's beloved to no longer fearing failure. 👍

[@enneagramandcoaching]

❤️❤️❤️

[@AbbyNicole2]

First of all, I love this video so much! I’m a type 1 and really enjoyed listening to this interview. I watched the end of this video for the first time last night and my mind is blown. I didn’t know my subtype before seeing this but hearing them all explained for a type 1, I resonate so much with the SX subtype! The SO as well, but I’m thinking the SX might be a bit more developed. Thank you SO much for this, I just love your teaching on the enneagram and this episode was truly so eye-opening for me!

[@Jessicaunarex]

I am a 4 and I just love 1s! (Granted 1 is my integration point but man, do I wish I could stay there.)

[@enneagramandcoaching]

❤️

[@forthhallingas]

Also a four and I know what you mean! Ones are awesome.

[@amelian9677]

Same Jessica!!! I’m an INFP/4w5, and my cousin is an INTJ/1w9. I basically think she hung the moon 🌙

[@bbjudyfit]

25:15 i am 9w1 and omgggggg she is speaking my life here. Criticism huuuurts my soul😖

[@hectoralvarez336]

I find that turning failure into a positive really helps only because its something new that i can fix, but it feels very toxic.

[@jennamarie1456]

Love this! Yay Claire!

[@enneagramandcoaching]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@KatanaKamisama]

I'm a 5w4 sx sp, but my 1 is quite strong. In my younger years I hated being wrong. I felt invalidated when I didn't get a perfect score on a test, or if I didn't have the right answer to a question. I think part of that was the 5 core fear, but it wasn't until my Jr. year of High School that I identified the irrationality of that fear, and actively crushed it. Since then I feel like I learn a lot faster from failure than I so from success. From failure you can learn what not to do, which often times shortens the list of optimal choices a LOT faster. I do make it a point to not repeat my mistakes, but as an imperfect being in an imperfect world I find it absurd to expect perfection. Perfection is the asymptote of life, you can approach it but you're never gonna get there... at least in this world.

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Your right. Some of that would be the core fear. Fives hate looking foolish or not having the right answer. But you have amazing insight and wisdom. Thanks for sharing!

[@cmpicha2934]

I just wanted to say I love that asymptote of life analogy! It's been several years since I've had to do that type of math, but it made the nerd in me happy 🤓 (I am a 1w9, btw.)

[@yourstrulylulu]

Thank you for this.

[@enneagramandcoaching]

My pleasure!

[@mirandas_universe]

LOVE this!!💓

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Thanks! ❤️

[@ppdelaba]

She scares me XD, but I also scare myself as we both 1w2.

[@enneagramandcoaching]

[@margaretjudice8944]

Good information!

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Thanks!

[@katiew8511]

I hated group projects. Just wait till you are a mom! You will get a lot opportunity to work that out.

[@dandee6604]

There is a video that jaiden animations talks about a group project, she did not do the work for them all, she just gave everyone acknowledgment in the credits 🤣🤗💛

[@e.l.2734]

Fake, angels don't make mistakes! Kidding. Great video, thanks! My beloved grandma is apparently a 1w2, and the enneagram is helping me understand her better, as many other people in my life, ofc.

[@melindabardill1465]

Is it possible for your subtypes to change when you are in stress vs growth. I really feel I am a 1 wing 9 sx. I feel in growth I am more social and in stress more self preserving.

[@enneagramandcoaching]

Subtypes are each persons “instincts” that refer to our biological survival drives. So yes they can change. Usually a person has one or two instincts that are very developed (one of those are usually the dominant subtype) and then one subtype that’s underdeveloped. You can use them at any given time. Hope this helps!

[@dandee6604]

💛 1s!

[@karspostema2762]

Uh oh she's preaching lol

[@louisbilman595]

Not a 1. Might be a seven. You're both sevens I think.

[@norakadas9007]

Why do you think that?

[@louisbilman595]

@@norakadas9007 Upon watching more of the video the idea became borne in my mind that you might be a nine. Certainly not a one though. One's are kind of severe. Since they're introverts and also very concerned with truth and truthfulness, as is often the case with such kinds of people, they can be slightly awkward or just off putting. You seem very agreeable and sweet. This is a nine-ish quality.

[@norakadas9007]

​@@louisbilman595 Thank you for the input, but I do still believe I'm a 1w2. A lot of 1's in film (ex. Daenerys Targaryen (sx 1w2) and Hermione Granger (so 1w2) are very intense, but Self-Preservation 1's like myself tend to turn their anger into a warmth and are primarily concerned with perfecting their own actions (think Nancy Wheeler from Stranger Things). What is your Enneagram type?

[@louisbilman595]

@@norakadas9007 You may very well be, I suppose. Some times it's hard to type certain people immediately. Your type doesn't really jump out at me. I'm a 4.

[@norakadas9007]

​@@louisbilman595 The Enneagram revolves primarily around desire, so it makes sense that I may not strike you as a 1, because we all look very different. And there is only so much one can grasp from a KZbin comment. 4s are so interesting and unique! Do you know your wing and sub-type or MBTI?
