What can the Enneagram teach us about sensitivity, social justice, and our unique calling?  In this conversation, our special guest, Dorcas Cheng-Tozun (https://www.chengtozun.com/) , speaks about the challenges faced by Enneagram Fours and highly sensitive people. Drawing from her book Social Justice for the Sensitive Soul, (https://www.amazon.com/dp/1506483437?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallback)  Dorcas reflects on belonging, burnout, and emotional wounds. She offers us sustainable ways to pursue justice.   Also in this episode, Fr. Richard Rohr offers wisdom on the Four’s gift of seeing beyond conformity and invites Type Fours to turn their suffering outward in solidarity with others.   Tune in to discover how our authenticity, purpose, and gifts can serve the world.  Find the transcript for today's episode here.
