The Peacemakers: Enneagram Type Nine

Enneagram type 9’s - The Peacemakers - are self-effacing, receptive, reassuring, and agreeable. They are generous, calm, and able to see all sides of an issue with a level head. Their desire to keep the peace can lead them to becoming complacent and indecisive. On this episode of The Behaviorist, Work Wisdom’s Kimberlee Peifer is joined by Jill Laskowitz, Attorney at Blakinger Thomas, and also an Enneagram 9. Jill shares how a 9’s ability to mediate and de-escalate tensions is a valuable skill in her chosen profession in the courtroom. Find out how Jill discovered that the “low energy” common for 9’s does not mean lack of drive or work ethic, but rather how 9’s can need to turn inward and need to remember to ask for help in making decisions. Spoiler alert: Marie Kondo is a 9’s best friend!  Jill and Kimberlee delve into the “why” of what 9’s do, and how learning more about this type’s deepest fears and motivators can lead to creating healthy habits and mindsets specific to this type.
