Here on the very first episode of the year on the Enneagram & Marriage Podcast, we're exploring what meaningful resolutions look like for each Enneagram type within marriage. We'll talk about why blanket advice like "communicate better" might resonate differently with a One than it does with a Seven. We'll discuss how a Four's path to being more present looks vastly different from a Three's journey to the same goal. Most importantly, we also focus on authenticity. Because the most powerful resolutions aren't about changing who you are - they're about becoming more fully yourself in your marriage. They're about understanding your unique gifts and challenges, and using that awareness to grow closer to your partner. So whether you're an Eight learning to embrace vulnerability, a Two discovering healthy boundaries, or a Nine finding your voice in your relationship - this episode is about crafting resolutions that honor your true self while strengthening your marriage. Let's move beyond the surface-level changes that don't stick, and instead, dive into the kind of intentional growth that transforms relationships from the inside out. Are you ready? Let's dive in - together! Also, our E + M Membership, the Collective, is here and open for membership now Jan 1-8th!!

Or perhaps men are just as emotional as women (usually, in real life and especially the news, much MORE so) but women are socialized since childhood to be nurturing and think about others' feelings while men never are. Typically women are more rational; being emotionally intelligent doesn't contradict that. You don't really see women smashing game controllers against the wall, punching drywall, or going on shooting sprees when they can't get sex. (Not hating on men here, it's just the facts.)

also I'm not married but I'm together with a 4w5 sp 451for almost 13 years. people say that 7 & 4s don't work together but it works just fine. probably because of my 749 and his self preservation instinct. 💜 . I loved the comment that people's expectations are too high. it's so true. Don't have any expectations and you can not be disappointed 💜
