Trusting Your Gut as an Enneagram Two, feat. J.J. Peterson (Enneagram Two) [S02-040]
What do you need in a relationship? When it comes to relationships, how do you interact with and love other people? It’s often in our most intimate relationships that our most true self shows up and we realize that our view of the world is not necessarily the same as others. That’s where the Enneagram comes in. The Enneagram helps us understand ourselves better, provides a platform for understanding our partners, and teaches us how to walk more healthily in relationships.
In today’s episode, J.J. Peterson processes past relationships with Ian and reminds us all that it’s healthy to trust our gut and acknowledge our own needs.

“When it comes to relationship, especially, not just friendship but like a partner, like a life partner kind of situation, that’s where you end up having to be your most true self or your most true self comes out, and recognizing the things that you kind of hold to are not necessarily the things that the other person holds to from a worldview perspective. ”
