040 | #1 Personality Type: THE PERFECTIONIST (Part 2) with John Rutten

The Enneagram Series - Personality Type 1: The Perfectionist with John Rutten

Welcome back to the next exciting instalment of our 10-part Enneagram Series, where we’re diving deep into the personalities that shape our lives. In today’s episode, we’re focusing once again on Personality Type 1: The Perfectionist, but with a fresh perspective from a truly unique guest—John Rutten.

John, a successful interior designer and founder of DuJourLiving, has a passion for creating dynamic living spaces that elevate both the value of a home and the lifestyle of its owners. John’s life experiences span multiple careers, from pastoral roles in ministry to energy healing and life coaching. With his rich background, John brings a powerful and deeply personal perspective on what it means to live as a Perfectionist and how understanding the Enneagram has been transformative for him.

What to Expect in This Episode: In today’s deep dive, we explore how Type 1s—also known as The Perfectionists—strive for excellence, often at the cost of self-criticism and the fear of being judged. John shares how his personal journey through multiple stages of life—career shifts, spiritual exploration, and personal development—has led him to embrace the wisdom of the Enneagram as a tool for self-discovery and healing.

You’ll hear about:

• John’s journey from church ministry to life coaching and energy healing
• How the perfectionistic tendencies of Type 1 show up in his life and business, especially in his work designing spaces that require precision and detail
• The pivotal role the Enneagram has played in helping John better understand himself, his motivations, and his unique life path
• How embracing the Perfectionist aspect of his personality helped him heal, find balance, and ultimately “save his life”

John’s story is a powerful example of how the Enneagram isn’t just a personality typing tool—it’s a catalyst for real transformation, helping people understand their true essence and live with greater purpose. Whether you’re a Type 1 yourself or just curious about the perfectionist mindset, this episode will offer insights that can guide you toward a more fulfilled life.

The Enneagram’s Impact on Personal Identity and Life Purpose
One of the most compelling parts of John’s journey has been his exploration of personal identity—and how the Enneagram has been pivotal in helping him navigate who he truly is in this world. As he shares his story, you’ll learn how understanding the Perfectionist archetype can provide a sense of relief, helping to release unnecessary pressures and bring more peace and authenticity into daily life.

Get Ready for Some Big Insights!
Take a seat, grab your favorite beverage, and join me and John as we unpack the complexity of the Perfectionist personality type with real, relatable stories and actionable wisdom. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of how this personality type works in the real world—and how to apply this knowledge to transform your own life.

Welcome to our 10-part podcast series exploring the fascinating world of Enneagram personality types!

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.
