In this week’s episode of Typology, I sit down with Alicia Michelle—an Enneagram One and host of The Christian Mindset Coach podcast—for a rich and deeply personal conversation about emotions, the Enneagram, and the journey toward self-compassion.

Alicia opens up about her own story: the misconceptions she once held about her type, what it was like to finally land on her true number, and how that discovery reshaped the way she relates to herself and others. We explore the challenges Ones face with perfectionism and anger, and the freedom that comes when you learn to loosen the grip of the inner critic.

One of the highlights of our conversation is Alicia’s practical ADD method—Acknowledge, Discern, Decide—which offers a simple but powerful way to process emotions and grow in emotional literacy. Along the way, we talk about how different Enneagram types experience emotions, and why cultivating metacognition can be a game-changer in how we govern our inner world.

Whether you’re brand-new to the Enneagram or a seasoned student, you’ll walk away from this episode with fresh insights and tools to navigate your own emotional landscape with greater clarity and compassion.
