Enneagram and Marriage

Exploring dynamics of Enneagram 1, 4, and 7 in relationships, emphasizing approaches like wings and subtypes. Navigating challenges by accepting imperfections, practicing mindfulness, and focusing on personal growth. Overcoming traits of perfectionism within marriages.

Sometimes we do all the right steps and we still don't get the desired results with family and friends around us. Dr. Alison Cook joins us with some profound answers as she invites you to say a healthy "yes" to others even as you set boundaries for yourself. Join Christa and Alison as they discuss not only riveting points from Dr. Cook's book about boundaries in general, but also how to approach in-laws from each and every direction, whatever generation you're currently a part of. This is because we truly want you to be held in every season, and the best of your precious legacy as well.    Find Dr. Alison Cook's Book & Social Media at the links below!   Dr. Cook's The Best of You is >> right here! > Instagram Join the E + M Collective Membership Learn more about your ad choices.

When we're considering how to glow or even relate with a spouse from a different family pattern than us, we are often called to not only marital or personal but spiritual work as we come across our unhealthy inner scripts. It's wonderful to get to process this topic and to do a spiritual exercise to the depths with Marilyn Vancil, 9, Spiritual Director, Author, and Enneagram teacher as she launches her new book, Beyond the Enneagram. Marilyn has not only been studying the Enneagram for over thirty years but she also has been married to her husband Jeff, Enneagram 3 for over fifty years. Marilyn is truly showing us an exhibition of the glow possible across seasons and her passion for helping people to listen to God, experience inner soul restoration, and enjoy a life of freedom and fullness as their true God-gifted self is seen.   Marilyn's Books:   Self to Lose, Self to Find   Beyond the Enneagram   Marilyn's Instagram   Donate to Hurricane Ian and the Anna and Ryan Herzog fund: https://gofund.me/c2776609   Head on over to enneagramandmarriage.com to check out all of our Enneagram & Marriage freebies and resources!
