In this episode, Milton speaks with Seema Patel, a dedicated advocate, therapist, and educator committed to creating inclusive spaces. Seema talks about her journey towards her realization of being Enneagram Type - Self-Preservation Two and why that resonated with her more than Type Eight. With this type’s emphasis on self-care and boundaries, this contributes to her being protective of her inner circle, their time and energy as well as a helpful travel companion. Seema also talks about how being a Self-Preservation Two led to her work in a specific area of mental health for marginalized people at Hampton House, Nashville’s first BIPOC- and queer-owned counseling center.

In this episode, Milton speaks with Chelsea Witbrook, a spiritual director and Enneagram educator based in Minneapolis, about Enneagram Type–Sexual One, also known as “zeal.” Chelsea talks about the uncomfortable awakening of discovering her Enneagram Type, while also coming to accept her personality. The question–Would you rather be happy or right?--changed her life and a valuable thing she feels for this type to meditate on. She also talks about her book, Blessing My Demons, about the inner critic, and how it tends to disguise itself as an inner spiritual coach for the Sexual One. On a more positive note, Chelsea shares how this instinct gives her a willingness to take risks and the charisma to keep people engaged.
