When the Gifted Feel Broken | Green Book and the Preserving Four

from The Enneagram in a Movie

In this episode of The Enneagram in a Movie podcast, Mario Sikora, TJ Dawe and TJ Ingrassia talk about Green Book through Dr. Donald Shirley, the concert pianist played by Mahershala Ali. Dr. Shirley is a Preserving Four that uses refinement as a barrier, not a bridge. They discuss how a Preserving Four can build such an elegant prison that even when someone offers them a way out, they hesitate to leave.Connect with us:Awareness to ActionEnneagram on DemandThe Awareness to Action Enneagram PodcastMario Sikora: IG: @mariosikoraTikTok: @mariosikoraWeb: mariosikora.comSubstack: mariosikora.substack.comBook: How to Think Well, and Why: The Awareness to Action Guide to Clear ThinkingTJ Dawe:Web: tjdawe.caTJ Ingrassia:Web: tjingrassia.comYouTube: @TypeCastMentioned in this episode:Awareness to Action Podcast NetworkPodcast Network
