What or Who is Worthy of Your Wholeheartedness? flipping over the price tag of the Enneagram's Sexual Instinct

<p>What has quietly become worthy of your wholeheartedness?</p><p>Not everything that captures your attention deserves your devotion.</p><p>Some relationships do.<br>Some churches do.<br>Some careers do.</p><p>And every one of them is quietly shaping the person you are becoming.</p><p>In this episode of Feel Known Be Known, Katrina explores the Enneagram&#39;s most misunderstood instinct—the Sexual (One-to-One) Instinct—not primarily through the lens of sexuality, but through attraction, wholeheartedness, and transformation.</p><p>Beginning with her own unexpected obsession with the Enneagram, Katrina traces the journey from attraction, to absorption, to transformation, asking one question that quietly shapes every human life:</p><p>What is worthy of my wholeheartedness?</p><p>Together we&#39;ll explore:</p><p>• Why not everything that activates you transforms you<br>• How to discern whether what you&#39;re giving yourself to is making you more loving—or simply more activated</p><p>Because every attraction has a direction.<br>Every devotion has a price tag.<br>Every wholehearted surrender is quietly making someone of us.</p><p>The question isn&#39;t whether you&#39;ll be transformed.</p><p>The question is whether what you&#39;ve decided is worthy of your wholeheartedness is worthy of the person you&#39;re becoming.</p><p></p>

The Cost of Being a Good Person: Flipping over the hidden price tags of integrity, connection, achievement, wisdom, strength, and peace

<p>Most of us assume our greatest strengths are purely gifts.</p><p>Integrity. Care. Achievement. Authenticity. Wisdom. Loyalty. Possibility. Strength. Peace.</p><p>These qualities help us belong. They help us contribute. They help us matter. They have helped us then, surely they must help us now.</p><p>But what if every strength comes with a hidden price tag?</p><p>In this episode, we explore the social instinct through the lens of the Enneagram and the nervous system. Together, we&#39;ll examine how each personality type searches for belonging, significance, and stewardship—and what happens when a healthy strategy slowly becomes an identity.</p><p>Type One flips over integrity and discovers perfectionism—and eventually, the feeling of never being enough.</p><p>Type Two flips over connection and discovers people-pleasing—until they become invisible to themselves.</p><p>Type Three flips over significance and discovers performance—until proving replaces simply being.</p><p>Type Four flips over authenticity and discovers comparison—until uniqueness becomes loneliness.</p><p>Type Five flips over understanding and discovers withdrawal—until observation replaces participation.</p><p>Type Six flips over safety and discovers vigilance—until preparation becomes worry.</p><p>Type Seven flips over freedom and discovers avoidance—until possibility becomes escapism.</p><p>Type Eight flips over strength and discovers control—until protection becomes burden.</p><p>Type Nine flips over peace and discovers self-forgetting—until harmony costs them their own voice.</p><p>The goal isn&#39;t to stop improving, helping, achieving, creating, understanding, protecting, inspiring, strengthening, or harmonizing.</p><p>The goal is to become conscious of the hidden transaction.</p><p>Because once we see the price tag, we finally have a choice.</p><p>And that is where transformation begins.</p><p>Join me as we explore the gifts, the costs, and the deeper invitation beneath them all: discovering that belonging was never something we had to earn in the first place.</p><p></p>

Self-Preservation: Conservation in Transformation through the safety, security, and sustainability

<p>In this episode of Feel Known, Be Known, we explore the Self-Preservation Instinct through the lens of <strong>safety, security, and sustainability</strong>—the three foundational forces that shape how we survive, conserve energy, manage resources, and create stability in our lives.</p><p>Why do some people constantly prepare for worst-case scenarios? </p><p>Why do others struggle to rest until every responsibility is handled? </p><p>And how does our nervous system influence the way we seek comfort, predictability, and control?</p><p>Drawing from the Enneagram, attachment patterns, neuroscience, and lived experience, we&#39;ll uncover how the self-preservation instinct shows up in each of the nine Enneagram types. </p><p>You&#39;ll learn how this instinct can be a powerful gift that helps us build healthy rhythms, steward our resources, and care for ourselves and others. You&#39;ll also discover how it can become overactive, leading to anxiety, scarcity thinking, hyper-independence, burnout, or resistance to change.</p><p>Most importantly, we&#39;ll explore the tension between conservation and transformation—how growth requires enough safety to risk change, and how true sustainability involves more than simply maintaining the status quo.</p><p>Whether you&#39;re new to the Enneagram or a seasoned student of personality and personal growth, this conversation will help you better understand your survival strategies, your relationship with security, and the path toward greater freedom, resilience, and trust.</p><p>Topics covered:<br>• The Self-Preservation Instinct and the Enneagram<br>• Safety, Security, and Sustainability<br>• Nervous System Responses and Survival Strategies<br>• Resource Management and Energy Conservation<br>• How Self-Preservation Shows Up in All Nine Types<br>• Scarcity, Control, and Over-Preparation<br>• Personal Growth, Transformation, and Trust<br>• Faith, Resilience, and Human Flourishing</p><p>#Enneagram #SelfPreservation #PersonalGrowth #NervousSystem #AttachmentTheory #PersonalityTypes #SpiritualGrowth #MentalHealth #SelfAwareness #Transformation #FeelKnownBeKnown</p><p></p>
