Episode 81: the reformer
“COVID-19 as a time of forced awakening for people, and looking at this as a challenge, as a time to think about specific paths of growth and clarity for individuals and for society.”
The Enneagram type 1 is often referred to as “the reformer” because with their strong sense of ethics and their core desire of having integrity and balance, 1s see that things can always be better--and they know how to make that happen. Jana Riess is an author, editor, and scholar who has been thinking about the Enneagram for a long time--including editing two books about it. As she shelters in place, she sees a lot about our world that needs reforming. But what she needs most are the small moments of human connection that keep her going in the day to day.
