How Each Enneagram Type Grieves and Supports Others Through Loss with Elizabeth Orr - 30

from Enduring Grief

What if understanding your Enneagram type could help you grieve with more self-compassion and support others without trying to fix their pain? In part two of this heartfelt conversation, Sarah Peterson and The Unfiltered Enneagram author Elizabeth Orr explore how Enneagram Sixes and Sevens respond to loss, fear, control, and emotional pain. They also explain how every Enneagram type can offer care while staying aware of their own habits. From setting healthy boundaries and releasing perfection to sitting with discomfort and knowing when humor is helpful, this episode offers honest, practical guidance for showing up during life’s hardest moments. Whether you are grieving a death, a relationship, a job, or an unexpected change, you will learn how presence, courage, and compassion can matter more than having the perfect words.Episode highlights:(3:27) How Enneagram Sixes experience grief, fear, and powerlessness(11:49) Why Enneagram Sevens may avoid pain through plans and activity(18:32) Supporting grief through the lens of your Enneagram type(18:59) Type Eight: Releasing control and connecting with vulnerability(24:17) Type Nine: Staying present through discomfort(28:38) Type One: Letting grief be messy and imperfect(32:03) Type Two: Setting caring and healthy boundaries(37:02) Type Three: Moving past performance toward honest connection(40:32) Type Four: Making room for breaks from emotional intensity(43:02) Type Five: Showing up without needing all the answers(48:36) Type Six: Offering courage, loyalty, and practical help(52:52) Type Seven: Reading the room before reaching for humor(54:32) How self-awareness helps us offer better grief support(58:09) Resources for discovering your Enneagram typeConnect with Elizabeth:IG: https://www.instagram.com/lzjhnsnrr/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/rudeassenneagram/?hl=enGrab a copy of her book The Unfiltered Enneagram: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C9Y3X6MPConnect with Sarah:✅ Instagram: instagram.com/clearmourning✅ Official Website: clearmourning.orgFollow us on Instagram: @ClearMourningStay inspired with daily reflections, quotes on healing, and behind-the-scenes content from the podcast.Love What You Hear?Leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform—it helps others discover these stories of healing.
