Ep.4: The Heart Triad of the Enneagram: Types 2, 3, 4

In this deep dive into the Enneagram’s Heart Triad—Types Two, Three, and Four—Patria Rector explores how these emotionally intelligent types navigate the world through the lens of feelings, relationships, and connection. From the Helper’s quiet fear of rejection, to the Achiever’s drive to prove their worth, to the Individualist’s lifelong quest for authenticity, you’ll discover the beauty, complexity, and growth paths unique to each type.
