234. When Grief Breaks Your Personality

from Restorative Grief with Mandy Capehart Hosted by Mandy Capehart

What if grief isn’t breaking you but interrupting a strategy that can no longer protect you? Grief can make us feel unrecognizable, but what if it’s not breaking you? Maybe it's just interrupting the strategies your nervous system has relied on to feel safe, secure, or connected. In this episode, we explore how the Enneagram can help name these survival patterns and introduce the grief-adaptive coping triad—security, belonging, and safety. Learn how grief disrupts familiar ways of coping and what it asks of us instead, with tools to notice, support, and restore yourself from the inside out.
