Episode Four: The Heart Remembers – Exploring Types 3, 2, and 4

Podcast Series: The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self: A Book Club Series Host: Alicia Divers | Somatic Practitioner & Enneagram Teacher Guest Author: Sandra Smith  In This Episode: This week, we move into Chapters 3, 4, and 9 of Sandra Smith's The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self—exploring the Heart Center types: Three, Two, and Four. Alicia guides us through the tender terrain of the Heart Center—where image, identity, and emotional attunement shape our inner stories. You'll hear how each type seeks love and connection in distinct ways, and how the journey back to the heart begins with reclaiming self-worth. With somatic insight and personal reflection, Alicia brings Sandra's "compassionate entry points" to life—offering gentle practices and embodied invitations for each type to soften performance, over-functioning, and comparison. You'll learn: How Type Three's drive for achievement can soften into authentic presence How Type Two's desire to be needed can open into the spaciousness of receiving How Type Four's longing for depth can root into grounded belonging How shame subtly shapes Heart Center strategies—and how the body holds its residue Why equanimity, Holy Freedom, and Holy Source name the deeper spiritual journey of these types Whether you resonate with the Heart Center—or love someone who leads with image or emotion—this episode offers a warm, invitational space to remember: You don't have to earn your belonging. You already have it. Reflection Question: Where are you still trying to prove your worth—and what might shift if you trusted that love doesn't have to be earned?
