What is it like to be an Enneagram Eight? How can an Eight (or any of us!) learn to be vulnerable when we hate showing our weaknesses? How can we redefine failure?
In this interview, author and wife Celia Miller shares with us:
- What confrontation really is,
- What to do when you’re afraid of letting down your walls to allow others in,
- How the gospel is really a battle for our hearts and for love,
- The truth about exposing weakness,
- And what it means in real-life to live broken.
If you are an Eight, know or love an Eight, or have never met an Eight, this episode is so insightful in helping you:
- learn how to let down your guard,
- quit thinking of failure as your defining feature,
- and process your feelings with Jesus.
If you’re ready for some wisdom and enlightenment, listen in. To read more about the Enneagram Eight, go here.
