Finding Purpose as an Enneagram 1 with Liz Goulding

Welcome back to Enneagram IRL, the weekly podcast where we go beyond Enneagram theory and dive into practical understanding, new clarity, and fresh insight. We’re talking about how each type is in REAL LIFE so you can remember – you’re more than just a number.

On this week’s episode of Enneagram IRL, we meet with Liz Goulding, ADAPT Certified Health and Wellness Coach. Liz focuses on the intersection of personal well-being and professional development, working primarily with creative professionals and self-employed individuals who want more energy and capacity to meet life's challenges and opportunities. We discuss navigating day-to-day life, running a coaching business, and experiencing personal growth as a Self-Preservation Type One. I’m particularly excited about this conversation because, fun fact, Liz is my personal coach!
