Mailbag: Trauma & Type, Subtypes, Wings, and How We Grieve
Show notes
We're going back into the vault for one of our most popular mailbag episodes from Season 3 — and the questions are just as good as we remembered.
In this episode, Ian and co-host Anthony Skinner answer listener questions on some of the Enneagram's most nuanced and personal territory: Can trauma actually change your type? What is the "sunny Four," and why do subtypes matter so much for Fours and Sixes? How do Threes and Fours process grief differently — and what does healthy grieving even look like through an Enneagram lens? What does it mean to have a heavy wing, and can you access both wings for growth? And for the Ones in the room — what do you actually do with all that repressed anger?
Whether you're new to Typology or you've been with us for years, this one is worth your time.
