Systems & Steps w/an Enneagram 7, Alaina Pompa of Ray of Light
We're bringing you sunshine but also some peaceful vibes on this special episode as we talk to my Enneagram 7, dear friend Alaina Pompa, artist, innovator, and illustrator who has shared her talents all over Enneagram & Marriage with us, designing our Glow Guides + our E + M 52 Week Relationship Planner.
She's married to James, type 9, and as she shares here about what it's like being married to a 7 in our ongoing deep dive "Life & Marriage With..." podcast series, I am truly excited for you to listen.
I'm not excited, however, because 7s are seen as exciting - I'm instead "grateful-excited" (yes, there are degrees of joy!) because Alaina is a grounded 7 who has embraced the virtue of sobriety, and she also has tips for embracing the depths that many kinetically-moving energetic 7s really crave but don't know how to access.
On this episode and series, as you can see, we're really rounding out and getting inside of the depths behind some stereotypes and creating a more robust understanding, direction, and compassion for you as we embrace the true and deep joy of Type 7s and how to stay healthily married to one right here.
You'll learn about:
The planning fixation of the 7
The aggressive-assertive (independent) stance
The kinetic movement & creativity experiencing as a 7
Accessing the safety needs (and sensitive heart) of a 7 in marriage
