On Episode 69, Daniel and Christina interview Lauren Gray (certified Enneagram coach) about how each type communicates and how to approach each type when you are in conflict with them. This interview is JAM packed with amazing advice that we had to split it into two episodes! Make sure to tune in next week for part 2.
