Simple on Purpose | Intentional Living and Parenting   show

Summary: I have three moms sharing a few minutes each about their experience of motherhood as being a Type 1 on the Enneagram. As part of a series I am doing on all the nine enneagram types called Enneagram + Motherhood<br> <br> <br> Type 1s are also called the Perfectionist or Reformer. <br> I am explaining a bit more details about Type 1s and taking referencing information taught in the <a href="https://amzn.to/39kX1Nr" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wisdom of the Enneagram by Riso and Hudson</a><br> Books recommended here may include referral links to Amazon. If you click through and take action I will be compensated at no additional cost to you. <br> When it comes to dealing with problems or not getting their way, they rely on COMPETENCY. <br> <br> In Enneagram talk: they are part of the Competency Group when it comes to their Harmonic Style. <br> <br> I briefly explain with this means and what it looks like for the Type 1. <br> <br>  <br> <br> I also explain what growth and stress look like for an Enneagram Type 1. <br> <br> These are called the Line of Integration (what you do when you are emotionally healthy) and Line of Disintegration (what you do when you are unhealthy and stressed).<br> <br> Then we hear from three moms who are so kind to share their own self-awareness and insights into the struggles and strengths of being a Type 1. I love that they also share how they manage the hurdles and I have helpful takeaways from what they share. <br> <br>  <br> Thank you, Louise, Jacquie and Liz for sharing your experience with us!<br> You can find <a href="https://www.instagram.com/louisechappy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Louise at Talk Nerdy to Me</a><br> <br> and you can <a href="https://www.jointheglow.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">find Liz at Glow</a><br> <br>  <br> <br> Are you a type 5,6,7,8 or 9 who wants to share their motherhood experience?
