Jon and Tristen Collins on the Enneagram and Why Emotions Matter (Enneagram 5 and 2) [S03-009]

Published: Sept. 26, 2019, 1:17 p.m.

Each Enneagram type approaches feelings from a different angle.\xa0 Some types can be really in touch with their feelings, while others seem out of touch with their feelings. On today\u2019s episode, our guests Jon and Tristen Collins join Ian to talk about \u201cWhy Emotions Matter.\u201d As an Enneagram 5 and an Enneagram 2, you can imagine this married couple couldn\u2019t be more opposite when it comes to their emotions. Tune in as Jon and Tristen explain how the Enneagram has helped them integrate the Enneagram Five\u2019s tendency to keep their feelings to themselves and the Enneagram Two\u2019s outward capacity for empathy and caring to build a stronger marriage and improve their relationships with others.\xa0\xa0
