    Navigating Mental Health Without Pseudoscience or Spiritual Bypassing | Dr. Alison Cook (Ep. 22)

    In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Alison Cook, an Enneagram Three. We talk about why quick-fix solutions and spiritual bypassing can keep us from genuine healing, and how learning to honor difficult emotions can lead to greater emotional health. She also shares her practical framework of naming, framing, and braving our emotions so we can face hard situations with greater wisdom and courage. Dr. Alison is a therapist and host of the top-ranked The Best of You podcast. She’s the bestselling author of I Shouldn’t Feel This Way and The Best of You, and co-author of Boundaries for Your Soul, which brings the popular Internal Family Systems model of therapy into a Christian framework. Widely recognized for her work at the intersection of faith and psychology, Dr. Alison helps people heal from past wounds, develop a strong sense of self, and build healthier relationships.

    How You Heal from Depression, Anxiety, and Other Disorders | Dr. Curt Thompson (Ep. 21)

    In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Curt Thompson, a Four on the Enneagram. We talk about why healing is more than simply treating symptoms, and how our stories, relationships, and wounds can shape our mental health. Curt also explores neuroplasticity, interpersonal neurobiology, and why being deeply seen, known, and loved by others can be such an important part of becoming whole. Dr. Thompson is a board certified psychiatrist, author, speaker, and co-host of the Being Known Podcast. He is known for beautifully integrating neuroscience, human relationships, and faith. Many people have told me that his books such as The Anatomy of the Soul, The Soul of Shame, and The Soul of Desire have been life-changing.  You can learn more about Dr. Thompson, his podcast, and books at https://curtthompsonmd.com/ 0:00 Audio Intro 0:20 Welcome 2:00 Curt Thompson's Enneagram Journey 5:50 Life as a Type 4 9:13 Rethinking Mental Health & Healing 24:57 Finding Agency in the Healing Process 31:36 The Long & Difficult Work of Healing 34:04 Why We Guard Against Healing 38:33 Neuroplasticity & the Hope for Change 46:07 What Is Interpersonal Neurobiology? 50:57 A Word for Therapists 53:02 Final Thoughts ━━━━━━━━ Join the Mental Health Summit Waitlist (Feb 16-19, 2027) Be the first to know when registration opens: typeish.com/summit/waitlist ━━━━━━━━ Get FREE Enneagram Self-Typing Guide Download here: https://www.typeish.com/free  ━━━━━━━━ Start Binging the Type·ish Podcast Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/type-ish/id1867815632 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4hczBky5UIYxWaZypxdwyT?si=42d759b9c3c74816 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@typeishofficial ━━━━━━━━ Follow Type·ish Web: https://www.typeish.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/typeishofficial Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gospelforenneagram TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@typeishofficial ━━━━━━━━ Music used with permission: 1EHGFXLKCSTV87DM, R1FX7HC5J8QQ4AG3, FKF90OE351KHV1DU

    The Enneagram, Addiction & Mental Health | Ian Morgan Cron (Ep. 20)

    I'm joined by bestselling author, psychotherapist, and The Road Back to You co-author Ian Morgan Cron. While Ian has helped millions of people understand the Enneagram, this conversation is much more personal. Ian shares his own journey through addiction and recovery, why he believes every one of us is somewhere on the addiction continuum, and how our deepest attachments—to work, success, relationships, control, or even our own pain—can quietly shape our mental health. This was one of the most talked-about sessions on my Mental Health Summit and I think it will change the way you think about addiction. You can find Ian, his best-selling books, Enneagram courses, and new Enneagram assessment at https://ianmorgancron.com/ 0:00 Audio Intro 0:30 Welcome 2:23 What Is Mental Health? 7:06 Everyone Is on the Addiction Continuum 11:46 Idolatry, Attachment & Addiction 16:22 Hidden Attachments That Shape Us 20:45 The Five-Step Addiction Cycle 29:31 Ian's Story of Addiction & Recovery 36:08 The Enneagram & Our Attachments 45:47 The First Steps Toward Freedom 50:09 Resources from Ian Cron 53:03 Final Thoughts 53:51 Outro ━━━━━━━━  FREE Preview of 3-Hour Enneagram History Course Enroll here: https://www.typeish.com/history  ━━━━━━━━  FREE Enneagram Self-Typing Guide Download here: https://www.typeish.com/free  ━━━━━━━━ Binge the Type·ish Podcast Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/type-ish/id1867815632 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4hczBky5UIYxWaZypxdwyT?si=42d759b9c3c74816 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@typeishofficial ━━━━━━━━ Follow Type·ish Web: https://www.typeish.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/typeishofficial Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gospelforenneagram TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@typeishofficial ━━━━━━━━ Music used with permission: 1EHGFXLKCSTV87DM, R1FX7HC5J8QQ4AG3, FKF90OE351KHV1DU *********

    Faith, Disillusionment & Life as an Enneagram Four | Dr. Russell Moore (Ep. 17)

    I'm joined by Enneagram Four Dr. Russell Moore, Editor-in-Chief of Christianity Today. Previously, Dr. Moore served as president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention. In 2021, he resigned after years of sustained criticism and threats over his public stance on a number of issues, including his criticism of President Donald Trump during the 2016 election, his comments on race and immigration, and his advocacy for addressing sexual abuse within the SBC. He's a courageous man whom I deeply respect and admire. I sat down with Dr. Moore for a brief conversation to hear his perspective as a public theologian on whether Christians should use the Enneagram and to find out what he enjoys about being an Enneagram Four.  To learn more about Dr. Moore, his bestselling books, and the podcasts he hosts through Christianity Today, visit https://www.russellmoore.com/ 0:00 Audio Intro 0:31 Welcome 2:25 Should Christians Use the Enneagram? 4:50 Life as a Type 4 10:21 The Danger of Overcorrection 11:32 Healthy Disillusionment 16:26 A Type 4's Greatest Pet Peeve 19:02 How the Enneagram Helps Relationships 25:16 Handling Criticism as a Type 4 30:56 Final Thoughts 31:29 Outro ━━━━━━━━  FREE Preview of 3-Hour Enneagram History Course Enroll here: https://www.typeish.com/history  ━━━━━━━━  FREE Enneagram Self-Typing Guide Download here: https://www.typeish.com/free  ━━━━━━━━ Binge the Type·ish Podcast Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/type-ish/id1867815632 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4hczBky5UIYxWaZypxdwyT?si=42d759b9c3c74816 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@typeishofficial ━━━━━━━━ Follow Type·ish Web: https://www.typeish.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/typeishofficial Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gospelforenneagram TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@typeishofficial ━━━━━━━━ Music used with permission: 1EHGFXLKCSTV87DM, R1FX7HC5J8QQ4AG3, FKF90OE351KHV1DU *********

    This is a Live Q&A I hosted with Suzanne Stabile during one of our Type·ish Summits (formerly called EnneaSummits). Some of the things we cover include how to respond to conservative Christian criticism of the Enneagram, whether certain types are more prone to narcissism or other mental health diagnoses, how trauma affects your type, how to identify your type without a test, and what healthy growth looks like for Twos, Sixes, Nines, and more.

    I'm joined by Dr. Dan Siegel—New York Times bestselling author, psychiatrist, and one of the world's leading voices on interpersonal neurobiology.
