Your personality shapes everything—from how you handle conflict to how you connect with your spouse and kids.

In this episode, I sit down with Christa Hardin, licensed marriage and family therapist and author of The Enneagram in Marriage. Krista has spent over 20 years helping couples strengthen their connection, and today she’s here to walk us through the Enneagram—a personality framework that goes beyond surface-level behaviors to uncover your core fears, desires, and motivations.

Together, we explore:

• What the Enneagram is and why it’s different from other personality tools
• The 9 personality types and their core fears and motivations

This conversation is packed with insights that will help you better understand yourself and the people you love most. Whether you’re brand new to the Enneagram or you’ve dabbled before, you’ll leave with practical ways to apply it in your everyday life.

Stay tuned for Part 2 of this series where we explore how the Enneagram shows up in marriage dynamics.
