That's such great feedback Nancy, thank you kindly. Please do stay in touch, happy to support your journey as best we can ~ Colleen-Joy

That's a great idea! Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. Much appreciate it. ~ Colleen-Joy

That's a very good idea will look at that for sure. Our channel is still in its early growth stages, so we are always looking for ways to improve. Appreciation ~ Colleen-Joy

Gosh that is very comforting to know, the videos do take time, so as long as folks like you are benefiting and my loved brand is growing, it's worth it. It took me many years to consolidate these essential insights, and I see a lot of confusion in the enneagram world because the basics are missed. A 4 heroine will make a great change from the classic hero archetypes for sure. Glad to hear it.

Yes I find working consciously to open both doors to balance our type is so helpful. As a t6 you can lean into red pearl 9 and green 3, gut knowing "let it go, let it flow" and 3 "efficiently manifesting your dreams."

As a fellow 9, I get that, it's like a black hole of resisting our own fire and presence. So important to embrace our red pearl inner fire in the belly and be willing to "boom-boom shake the room" is my latest mantra. Impersonal love is our highest expression, so feel love in your belly, and let it move you to take 3 inspired action to show up more fully and go for your dreams.

Very glad to hear that, all love

Always a pleasure, thanks for the warm comment. ❤

Thanks Tania ❤

I'm so pleased to hear that and wonderful to connect on our channel thanks Adrienne

Glad to hear it helped, pleasure. Colleen-Joy

Hello there

So glad this helped your character development, 8 does have those layers of complexity, and I'm sure this understanding will help you develop a stand out character. All the best with your writing ✍️

​@@InnerlifeskillsILS I also think this "opening the door" to types as growth makes more sense to focus on, as opposed to people who just focus on describing personality traits with wings and subtypes.

Wonderful to see you here Cassi, indeed a language of the soul. Thank you, all love

Agreed thanks for the comment

Hi there

Thanks Heather, Paul is incredible, highly recommended as a coach in this space

I really appreciate that, I also love the deeper side of the Enneagram, this inner work is wonderful

Always a pleasure, so much love

Thanks soooo much Tania, so wonderful to see you here. Gratitude. Big love

It's so helpful to know the difference between blended vs pure ICF coaching and to access the best of both don't you find?

Glad this was helpful. There is also another connection between 1 5 and 3 actually, called a harmonic, developed by Russ Hudson. 1 and 5 shares a pragmatic, practical "starting" point. What has helped me separate the types is to always look deeper than behaviors for the deeper "reason" for the behavior - which is a combination of the pearl and polarity as I call them. I might make a harmonic video.

You are so welcome!

Thanks, beautiful Khanya, call the rain for your apple tree ❤️

That's so good to hear. Happy to help.

Nice explanation of fear vs anxiety - when I teach I do also like to unpack the full continuum of fear from low volume caution and discernment to higher volumes of anxiety and full blown fear. Great point.

Glad this landed for you.

So pleased - lovely to connect here and to see you in class ❤️

Yup, my 9 voice.

Such a pleasure always Marilyn, lovely seeing you here on KZbin. Hope to connect more soon.

Ah thanks Khanya, love and gratitude for you. Thanks for connecting here on KZbin.

Thank you very much! Appreciate your comment. We are on process creating an ICF free guide no-optin course. Keep posted.

I'm so pleased to hear that, it's taken years to learn enough about the ICF competencies to be able to make them less complex for the coaches we serve. Happy to help.

Ah thank you soooo much my sister, love you so much

Hey Billy, about 20+ years ago my friend and colleague Dr Pam Roux and I were coauthoring a book on handing back family baggage, she kept referring to the enneagram types. I was highly resistant at 1st until I dreamt that she told me I was a 9. The next day I called her up to tell her "Pam I dreamt you told me I'm a 9" and she answered, "That's a very 9 way to find out you are a 9!" We laughed. I picked up Helen Palmer's book at a shop and read about 9 and was shocked at the accuracy. The rest is history, now I love helping to declutter and deeply understand the enneagram which soon became an invaluable tool.

Ah that makes my heart very happy to hear. Thanks for the comment and so glad the teaching landed for you. Let me know what other content you would love to see here.

Caroline, so lovely to see you here and read your kind comment. I love the "keychain of life" idea, brilliant. Chat soon all best.

You're so welcome! Your kind words are appreciated. Let me know if you'd like to see any other topics "inner obstacles" covered.

Ah, that is so wonderful to hear, makes the effort so worthwhile. Let me know if and how it helps, and if you hit any barriers let me know, I might do a video to help

You are so welcome! So happy to help.

That warms my heart thank you. Let me know how it went trying out the ideas, and if you have any other topics you'd love to see me cover. All love

That makes me very happy to hear. The world needs more coaches offering deep real coaching. Let me know what other coaching topics you'd like me to cover, all best, Colleen-Joy

Thanks

Such a pleasure, thanks for connecting here Sam

Such a pleasure thanks for the comment

Thanks Lin, love seeing you here! Big love

You are so welcome! The Pendulum is very popular with our community of coaches and leaders. Thanks for the comment

Hi thanks so much for the kind feedback, we put a lot into our videos so it means a lot. There of course are exceptions, but what I've seen is that 8 anger is more innate, the energy of it, like a gut fire always there hardwired. And that is because of the Red Pearl - anger + impact + resistance + gut = Red Pearl (8 9 1). Whereas 6CP is a Blue Pearl, so the mind directs anger "at" an injustice, championing the underdog etc. Hope that helps

Thank you kindly
