In this episode, we dive deeper into the personality of Enneagram Type 3 by exploring how wings and subtypes shape their behaviors, relationships, and leadership style. If you’re a Type 3, or someone close to you is, this conversation will help you understand the nuanced ways this type shows up in the world.

We unpack the two wings of Type 3—2 (The Helper) and 4 (The Individualist)—and how these influences can add layers of relational sensitivity or creativity. We also break down the three instinctual subtypes (Self-Preservation, Social, and One-to-One), highlighting how these survival instincts further refine a Type 3’s motivations, focus, and approach to life.

Finally, we offer practical insights for self-awareness, personal growth, and how Type 3s can lead authentically while staying rooted in God’s grace and purpose.

Key Points Covered:

• A quick review of the core motivations and fears of Enneagram Type 3s.
• The characteristics and dynamics of 3w2 (The Charmer) and 3w4 (The Professional).
• How the instinctual subtypes (Self-Preservation, Social, and One-to-One) influence a Type 3’s drive and relationships.
• Practical tips for personal growth and leadership for Type 3s, with a focus on embracing authenticity and faith.
• Encouragement to balance ambition with rest, rooted in the truth that our value comes from God, not achievements.

I hope this episode blesses you!

Tanya
