This week we unpack Enneagram Sevens, the joy-bringers who can feel shut down when they hear, “Can you just be serious?” Kelly explains how that lands as “You’re too much,” “Your joy isn’t welcome,” or “We can’t take you seriously,”.
We’ll give you better language that invites focus without killing the vibe:
- “I love your energy, can we shift gears for a minute? There’s something important I want to share.”
- “This might feel heavy, but I’d really value your perspective.”
- “This conversation may not be fun, but it matters to me.”
Plus: a simple reframe for Sevens, Is this taking away my freedom, or deepening connection?, so seriousness doesn’t equal punishment. Practical, kind communication that keeps both delight and depth in the room.
