Description

Alexandra (so/sp 9w1 6w5 3w4) and Kristen (so/sp 9w1 6w5 3w2) begin to discuss what the "individuation" process may look like for attachment versus hexad types in the enneagram. Within the enneagram culture, the divide between hexad and attachment has been a curious and interesting pursuit as the two 'types within the types' attempt to understand themselves and the 'other'. These two triple-attachment hosts are aiming to marry that division by giving each 'side' their respects of how genuinely hard it is to individuate, and how maybe considering the 'other side' within ourselves could actually hold part of the individuation process.
