    Holiday Support for Enneagram Type 9 w/ Ro Elliott
    Dec 20 2025
    In this mini episode, Patria and Ro explore the inner world of Enneagram Type Nines—the Peacemaker, Mediator, and Adaptive Presence—especially as the holidays amplify noise, tension, and unspoken expectations. They unpack how Nines instinctively move toward harmony through numbing, merging, or quietly disappearing, often in ways that go unnoticed by others.

    Patria shares personal insight as a Nine, naming how being physically present while emotionally withdrawn can become a survival strategy in overwhelming environments. Together, they explore why holidays can intensify the pull to fade out, and how healing for Nines involves gently coming back online—reconnecting with the body, the voice, and the belief that their presence truly matters.

    This conversation invites Nines to notice when self-erasure masquerades as peace, and to trust that engagement—not silence—is what actually creates harmony. A steady, compassionate companion for Type Nines navigating family systems, overstimulation, and the quiet work of reclaiming presence.

    Holiday Support for Enneagram Type 8 w/ Ro Elliott
    Dec 19 2025
    In this mini episode, Patria and Ro explore the inner world of Enneagram Type Eights—the Challenger, Protector, and Leader—especially as their energy shows up during the emotionally charged holiday season. They unpack how Eights instinctively move toward intensity, take charge in chaos, and use strength as a way to protect what’s tender beneath the surface.

    Together, they name how control and decisiveness often function as a defense against vulnerability, and why emotional closeness can trigger an unconscious “wall up” response. They offer insight into the Eight’s deep testing of trust, their fierce loyalty, and the often-misunderstood tenderness that lives beneath the armor.

    This conversation invites Eights to notice when protection turns into distance, to become aware of the impact of their presence, and to explore how strength and vulnerability can coexist. A steady, affirming companion for Type Eights navigating family dynamics, heightened emotions, and the courage it takes to soften without losing power.
