About this listen
"How are you feeling?"
Christine Yi Suh says that this has always been a hard question. She writes: "The more accurate question for a Four may be, 'What aren't you feeling?' I can grab my prevailing emotion and tell you how I'm doing from that emotion's point of view (joy, elation, sadness, grief, confusion - you name it!). I live and breathe a kaleidoscope of living, feeling, conflicting emotions."
Many times Fours are labeled "emotionally intense" or "too much", but for a Four, this is just how life is. This is why Fours are ideal companions in the midst difficult times: the death of a loved one, the birth of a baby, transitional seasons in career, relational conflict, and so on.
The Enneagram is a profound tool for empathy, so whether or not you are a Four, you will grow from learning about Fours and enhance your relationships across the Enneagram spectrum. Each summary concludes with an opportunity for further engagement such as a journaling prompt, reflection questions, a prayer, or a spiritual practice.

For those who want to dive deeper into Enneagram wisdom, expert teacher Suzanne Stabile opens the concept of three Centers of Intelligence: thinking, feeling, and doing. When we learn to manage these centers, each for its intended purpose, we open a path to reducing fear, improving relationships, growing spiritually, and finding wholeness. Drawing on the dynamic stability of the Enneagram, she explains each number's preferred and repressed Center of Intelligence and its role in helping us move toward internal balance.

Story
As much as we might try to resist, endings happen in every moment—the end of a breath, the end of a day, the end of a relationship, and ultimately the end of life. And accompanying each ending is a beginning, though it may be unclear what the beginning holds. In How We Live Is How We Die, Pema Chödrön shares her wisdom for working with this flow of life—learning to live with ease, joy, and compassion through uncertainty, embracing new beginnings, and ultimately preparing for death with curiosity and openness rather than fear.

This book from Suzanne Stabile on the nine Enneagram types and how they experience relationships will guide listeners into deeper insights about themselves, their types, and others' personalities so that they can have healthier, life-giving relationships.

Story
Each of us has a dual nature: we are light (conscious) and dark (unconscious). The dark side of our personality - the “other,” the shadow side - is made up of what we think is our primitive, primal, negative impulses - our “existential kink.” Our existential kink also drives the dark or negative repeating patterns in our life: always choosing the abusive partner or boss, settling for less, thinking that we’re undeserving, not worthy. But it also is the source of our greatest power.

Very illuminating
I thoroughly enjoyed my 3 hours of listening. Christine took me into her heart and used examples from her life to teach me about 4-ness. I cried often and felt like I was given tools to love and accept myself.

More of a memoir of her own experiences than about being a four.
Some really insightful things but seemed to be more a memoir of her own social injustice experiences than a daily devo.

Overly Rooted in American SJW Speak
The complexity of a 4 in the process of spiritual growth would be difficult to lead with a sub 3 hour audio guide, so it’s not surprising it feels a bit less than satisfying upon completion. This book misses the opportunity to speak to all 4s because it unfortunately gets mired in a narrow American social justice warrior lexicon of inclusive virtue signals. The author does an admirable job explaining her “lived experience” as a young Korean American hitting her 30s in Southern California, and the details of her life are interesting. Unfortunately, as a spiritual guide for all 4s, though it lands good and rightly difficult questions for self reflection, I found the overly personal application and preachy tone off putting for someone trying to escape the limitations of this American political identity politics/theology subculture. And I am saying this as someone who could easily be labeled a SJW myself, work full time in Christian ministry to serve oppressed African women, and a part time minister. This book would be hard to pass on to anyone not female, 30ish, and already a Rachel Held Evans enthusiast and consumer of “spiritual directors.” If the intended reader/listener is within those narrow parameters then it might be a great choice.

Too much talking about God
I listened to another Enneagram 4 audiobook a few months ago and there was too much God talk in it, so I bailed, I thought this would be different, but it’s almost the same, God this, God that, it’s not for me. Sorry.
