In this first of two episodes on the repressed instinct, Levi and Loren describe the challenges and blindspots that come into play in our personalities when we repress or neglect one of the three core instincts within the Enneagram personality system. In this episode, they paint a clear picture of the types of challenges that can arise for people when the self-preservation or social instincts are repressed, and share how recognizing the neglected instincts in their personality patterns has brought about significant clarity toward their places of pain and allowed them to engage intentionally in their continued journeys of personal and spiritual growth with deeper insight.
