Send us a textIn  this episode and the next one, I’m focusing on helping you better understand what communication style and decision-making tendencies you possess and what you need to be aware of when you engage with others. Have you ever wondered why you withdraw from your spouse when things get heavy? Have you noticed people shrinking back when you assert your presence? Or do you prefer to relate to or go along with an idea? Or even get frustrated with those who don’t declare their opinion? The Enneagram helps define these relational dynamics as three distinct communication Stances. This podcast episode will help you understand what is happening in your relationships, which communication stance you fall into, and why others interact with you the way they do! And by the way, you will hear me refer to the Stances as Communication Styles or vice versa. The terms are interchangeable and I’ve attempted to use them in a way to help you better understand this teaching. It’s so valuable to learn about your Stance as it can be eye-opening as you dig into how you behave and respond to others, both in healthy and unhealthy ways.

Send us a textWelcome back to part 2 of the fifth-anniversary special! If you missed out on part 1, you are definitely going to want to scroll back to episode #238 for context to this behind-the-scenes look at my family!If it's been a bit since you listened to part one, here's a quick recap: My family was insanely goofy behind the mic, and there were lots of giggles. In part 1, I gave a few Enneagram highlights about my family, and then they shared their anticipation for the big family trip to Disneyland. I also gave a little insight into my heartfelt struggle about celebration, missed expectations, and my honest thoughts about how the recording of this celebration episode panned out.If you missed part #1 AKA episode 238, now is your chance to go back and listen because this episode won't make much sense without it!For this second part of the celebration, I thought I would share a little personal background on why this trip to Disneyland was such a big deal to us.

Send us a textYou know how I like to ask our podcast guests what their life looks if we could peek in their window? Well, this episode is a two-part peek inside my window and life with my family. As I’ve approached the five-year mark of the Simply Wholehearted Podcast, I’ve been dreaming of what to do to celebrate. I decided to have my family on the anniversary episode, to talk about our first family trip to Disneyland that was scheduled to happen right before this special anniversary. In this episode, we spend some time chatting about what doing at trip with different enneagram types present is like!Now, first of all, it's important for you to know this is not going to be your typical episode. Less polished, less formal, more messy, loud and imperfect, and likely relatable to your own motherhood. I’m guessing I’m not the only one whose kids get crazy in a time you were wishing they weren't!But, this out-of the norm episode is very special to me and I hope you will find it humorous, entertaining and celebratory. Because my dear wholehearted friend, if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have a reason to podcast or to show up week after week the last FIVE years. Goodness! I’m so ecstatic that I get to do this work, have these conversations and create space for this community. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart and I hope you’ll appreciate this authentic, behind the scenes look.  Follow Amy on IGAmy's WebsiteCheck out the new Wholehearted Enneagram shop hereRESOURCES FOR YOU: Book a High-Value Clarity Call with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

Send us a textComing at you with a wonderful bonus episode today, on the topic of comparison!Are you tired of chasing better? Do you feel the weight of the pressure to exactly measure up to others? Heather Creekmore, author and Enneagram 7, joins me for a conversation around the harmful pursuit of perfection and the result of comparison. While other books on comparison call readers to embrace their own uniqueness, Heather’s book “The Burden of Better” reveals that only a deep understanding of God’s grace, and a personal reliance on that grace, can cure the epidemic of comparison flooding minds. Join us today as we dig into comparison but also Heather’s hesitancy  with the Enneagram and why it’s now a wonderful asset in her marriage and business.Follow Heather on IGHeather's WebsiteFollow Amy on IGAmy's WebsiteCheck out the new Wholehearted Enneagram shop hereRESOURCES FOR YOU: Book a High-Value Clarity Call with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

Send us a textHas this thought ever crossed your mind? “I thought we were going to be friends forever."Sometimes friendships can be messy and sometimes people are only in your life for a season. But with God’s redeeming love and leading, it IS possible for healthy friendships to be restored. Today I'm sharing a wonderful conversation I had with Andi Andrew, a mama, author of several books and an Enneagram 4. Andi’s latest book says we were made for connection with other women. Yet, too often our friendships are marked by drama, competition, betrayal, or unforgiveness. Her book is packed with Biblical and practical advice all about friendship reconciliation. We dive into it all on today's episode. Be blessed!Follow Andi On IG Andi’s Website Follow Amy on IG Amy's Website Check out the new Wholehearted Enneagram shop hereRESOURCES FOR YOU: Book a High-Value Clarity Call with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

Send us a textToday we have a bonus episode with Heather McFadyen on the podcast, sharing her heart all about the power of cultivating community as a busy mom. Podcast host, author, mama to four boys and enneagram 4, she has written a book called “Don’t Mom Alone” which is exactly what we will be diving into today! It can be tempting as busy women to prioritize more to-do list tasks checked off instead of leaving a few undone and investing in relationships. The temptation increases when your enneagram number is actually okay with a lot of alone time! Follow Heather on IGHeather's WebsiteFollow Amy on IGAmy's WebsiteBook a FREE Consult Call with AmyCheck out the new Wholehearted Enneagram shop hereRESOURCES FOR YOU: Book a High-Value Clarity Call with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?
