Chris Cook on Finding Your True Self After Trauma (Enneagram 1) [S04-030]

I'm often asked how trauma affects your Enneagram type.  The answer is: it's complicated.  Trauma is the result of an extraordinarily stressful event that shatters your sense of security and safety and makes you feel isolated and helpless in the world.  It can be a one-time event or ongoing, complex trauma.  Your response to trauma largely determines the type toward which you gravitate as a little child as a way of coping in the world. In today's episode, Chris Cook opens up about his childhood trauma and how healing his broken spirit exposed his true self.  We also dig into unconscious motivations, subtypes, and the inner critic.  You don't want to miss this in-depth conversation. Christopher Cook believes people should be able to live successful, meaningful lives, far above the status quo of "just getting by." Put simply, he believes people should be able to win today. He exercises this belief as a leadership coach and business consultant to both Fortune 1000 and non-profit organizations. Additionally, he is the host of "Win Today with Christopher Cook," a weekly podcast available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, and most other outlets. Through his work at WINTODAY.tv and as a featured writer for SUCCESS Magazine, he serves as a guide to wellness-minded men and women who are eager to confidently design their roadmap to wholeness and show up each day fully-alive in their true identity.
