Yes, I said exposing. That's how I feel right now. This could be one of my most vulnerable episodes, and I dragged another Enneagram 8 into the mix. Solidarity. Thanks to London Tierney from Particle Goods, you get a real look into some of the healthy and unhealthy behavior tendencies on an Enneagram 8. We talk about everything from the struggle to carve out white space, our trust issues, and how we'd much prefer the "rip the bandaid off" method over "beat around the bush". Despite our tough, often big and confident personalities, we're vulnerable and fighting insecurities just like the rest. And we're really tender momma bears who would fight to the death for you. (if we trust you, that is. we are suspicious...so bare with us.)
Maybe this resonates? Our whole goal is to grow deeper with each other and ourselves. We want to find the healthy self who can celebrate the strengths and learn from the 'less than positive' behavior tendencies.
Thanks to London for joining me in this conversation. "Hey London, wanna join me for a bonus episode where we expose ourselves and our unhealthy 8-ness, share the blunt truths, and laugh at how silly our thought process can be?" She said yes, just like a true E8 would.
(And, once we come out of hiding, if you see us at a party....we promise we're not judging your niceness. Maybe.)
