Girls Night #172: How to cultivate deeper, more meaningful relationships using the Enneagram with Meredith Boggs

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls’ Night! I’m so excited about today’s episode. Today we’re talking about the Enneagram and how it can help us grow in our relationships.  I shared about the Enneagram way back in episode number seventeen of the podcast and chances are you’ve heard about the Enneagram before, but if you’re not super familiar or need a refresher, it’s a personality assessment that helps you understand your emotions and motivations at a deeper level. The way I have come to understand it, it’s designed to do two things: 1. It helps us get to know our minds and our hearts so much better 2. It helps us overcome some of the roadblocks in our lives and become the best versions of ourselves  It also helps us understand and connect with the people we love, whether that’s a friend or our family, our coworkers or our spouse. And that’s the focus of today’s episode. Because, if you’re anything like me, you want to connect with the people around you on a deeper level, but you don’t always know how to make that happen in a practical way. You might also find yourself disagreeing or feeling disconnected in certain ways and not knowing how to fix it. But adding the Enneagram to my relationship toolbox has been a game changer and I hope it will be for you too!  To talk us through this, I invited my sweet friend, Meredith Boggs, on the show. Meredith is an expert when it comes to the Enneagram and has a new book coming out soon called, The Journey Home; A Biblical Guide to Using the Enneagram to Deepen Your Faith and Relationships. In this episode she’s going to teach us: What the Enneagram is (and what it’s not!) An overview of the Enneagram types and how to discover what type we are How the Enneagram can help us communicate in our relationships How the Enneagram can help us in our faith  How the Enneagram can help us understand and connect with our significant others better And that’s just the beginning!  If you’ve been wanting to cultivate deeper, healthier, more meaningful relationships, the Enneagram is a great resource to try and I can’t wait to share more about it!
