Description

In this episode of re[connect], Deedra and Megan dive into the journey of rediscovering their true selves beneath years of conditioning, expectations, and protective layers. They share how the Enneagram became a key tool in understanding their core motivations—Megan as a deeply introspective Four and Deedra as a principled, perfectionistic One—and how it helped them make sense of long-held patterns.

They explore:

• How personality is shaped by protective mechanisms and survival strategies
• The Enneagram as a lens for self-awareness, not a box to fit into
• Recognizing self-sabotage and the fear of unmet longings
• Why naming our core desires leads to greater freedom and compassion
• The lifelong process of reconnecting with the parts of ourselves we’ve buried

With honesty, humor, and a few relatable confessions (cleaning baseboards, anyone?), Deedra and Megan unpack what it means to truly reconnect—with ourselves and each other.
