Podcast Episode Description: The Enneagram Series - Personality Type 1: The Perfectionist with Kristen Ableson

Welcome to our 10-part podcast series exploring the fascinating world of Enneagram personality types! In today’s episode, we take an in-depth look at Personality Type 1: The Perfectionist with our special guest, Kristen Ableson. Kristen, an Equine Leadership Facilitator, Author, and Physiotherapist, shares her powerful insights on what it’s like to live as a Perfectionist and how embracing this personality type can lead to transformative personal growth.

What to Expect in This Episode: Type 1s are known for their core belief: “I need to be perfect,” which drives them to pursue excellence in every aspect of life. But this pursuit of perfection often comes with a set of challenges, including self-judgment, fear of criticism, and internalized anger. As Kristen and I unpack these complexities, we dive into the ways Perfectionists learn to manage their expectations and transform their limiting behaviors into incredible strengths.

We’ll explore the core traits of Type 1s, including their:

  • Desire for peace and resolution
  • Tendency to internalize anger
  • Judgmental or self-righteous tendencies
  • Ability to act with wisdom and conviction
  • Attention to detail and high standards

Plus, Kristen will share her journey of turning her perfectionist tendencies into powerful tools for personal and professional success. Whether you identify as a Type 1 or are just curious about this personality, this episode will give you fresh insights into how we all can evolve by understanding our unique strengths and limitations.
