Are your wings helping or hurting you? - Type Five

Season #2

In this episode, Kelsey Taylor interviews Enneagram Fives, Kyle Smith and Candace Williams on their wings. In the context of the Enneagram, your wings are the two numbers directly adjacent to your primary Type.

The 5w4 is known as the “Iconoclast” or an innovator and these two combinations have a unique relationship. The Five prefers to rely on logic, while the Four finds truth through their emotions, however both have a tendency to isolate themselves.

The 5w6 is known as the “Problem Solver” and this union is often in conflict with one another.. The independent Five prefers to find security through isolation, research, and information, while the dependent Six finds security through external support.
