In today’s episode, we’re taking a deeper dive into the Enneagram Type 1, focusing on how their wings and subtypes influence their personality and leadership style. If you’re a Type 1, or know one, this episode will help you better understand the unique strengths and potential challenges of living and leading as a Type 1.

We’ll break down:

• A quick review of key characteristics of Enneagram 1s, including their core motivation and driving emotion.
• The role of wings (1w9 and 1w2), and how they impact the way Type 1s show up in the world.
• How the three Enneagram subtypes (Self-Preservation, Social, and One-to-One) shape the perfectionist’s approach to life, leadership, and relationships.
• Insights on the strengths and potential blindspots of each subtype, and how these dynamics influence personal growth and leadership.

By understanding your wing and subtype, you can identify patterns that help you thrive, balance your inner critic, and lead with confidence and grace.

Key Takeaways:

1. Enneagram wings add nuance to how you lead, whether through calm diplomacy (1w9) or compassionate action (1w2).
2. Your subtype—whether Self-Preservation, Social, or One-to-One—can deeply shape how you express your perfectionism and sense of responsibility.
3. Embrace God’s grace and let go of the need to be perfect. Growth comes from understanding your strengths and areas for improvement.

Whether you’re looking to improve your leadership style, understand yourself better, or grow in grace, this episode has something for you.

I hope this episode blesses you!
