106: The great, the gifted and pain in the ass parts of being an Enneagram 7 with Kasey

Today we discuss parenting and the Enneagram with my daughter Kasey!⁣<br />⁣<br />Kasey is the reason I started really diving deep into the Enneagram.⁣<br />⁣<br />⁣<br />Listen now⁣<br />⁣<br />⁣<br />⁣<br />From the time she was a little girl, I knew Kasey and I were very different.⁣<br />⁣<br />Being the mom to a daughter comes with a huge responsibility—we teach them how to be women and what they can expect from other women.⁣<br />⁣<br />Being very different from her, I didn’t want to minimize who she was but bring out the best in her and who she was designed to be.⁣<br />⁣<br />I birthed an enthusiast.⁣<br />⁣<br />The Enneagram 7 couldn’t be more different than the 8, but the beautiful thing about having a 7 is she has taught me how to lean into my 7 wing, and I’ve helped her lean into her 8 wing.⁣<br />⁣<br />“I assumed I was a 7 right away due to my outer shell.”⁣<br />⁣<br />“But after diving deeper into the Enneagram,” Kasey shares, “I found other parts of me as well.”⁣<br />⁣<br />“As a 7, I need structure, but routine freaks me out. To make structure fun, I have to make the journey to the destination a whole experience so I get where I need to be.”⁣
