What if your stress wasn’t something to fix, but a message your body is trying to send you? 

In this episode of the Living Well Enneagram Podcast, Jen Stanley is joined by Erica Tomasik (Enneagram 7 and somatic-informed coach) to explore how listening to the body, instead of overriding it, can save you from hitting that breaking point.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why your body’s signals are not problems but rather messages to be understood

• The difference between reacting to stress and responding with awareness

• How physical symptoms can be connected to unprocessed emotional experiences

• A simple, practical body scan exercise to reconnect with what your body needs

  
  

Erica also challenges the belief that being constantly busy or overwhelmed is normal. Instead she reminds listeners that we are designed to move through emotions and then return to a grounded, regulated state. 

If you’ve been feeling exhausted, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode, this conversation offers a powerful shift: your body isn’t working against you—it’s inviting you to listen.

Is there something wrong with my body, or am I just being asked to listen differently?

In this episode of the Living Well Enneagram Podcast, Jen Stanley sits down with Roz Harris, founder of Fit Chicks and Emerge Personal Training, to talk about women’s health in midlife.

This conversation, through the lens of both the body and the Enneagram, explores how women can move away from shame and quick fix dieting toward a long term investment in strength, health, and vitality.

Tune in to discover:

• Why dieting often keeps women stuck in cycles instead of creating lasting change

• How midlife can be a turning point for strength, longevity, and vibrant health

• The powerful role of movement as medicine, including interval cardio, strength training, and flexibility

• How understanding your Enneagram type can help you push back against the lies you may believe about your body

Roz reminds listeners that healthy aging is not about punishment or perfection—it’s about sustainable care for the body you live in.

Do you ever feel like personal growth means fixing something about yourself?

In this episode of the Living Well Enneagram Podcast, Jen Stanley explains why the Enneagram isn’t about fixing who you are—it’s about becoming a more balanced and whole version of yourself.

Through real-life coaching stories and Enneagram insights, this episode explores how people often struggle when they try to live like a different Enneagram type, operate from their stress number, or ignore their natural energy patterns.

In this episode you’ll discover:

• Why the Enneagram isn’t about fixing yourself—but about self-understanding and freedom

• How Enneagram mistyping can create confusion and inner pressure • What happens when you operate from your stress number instead of your core type

• How the Enneagram can support healthier relationships, work life, and self-trust

Jen also previews upcoming interviews in the You Don’t Need Fixed series, including conversations about midlife health, body wisdom, nervous system regulation, and honoring your natural design.

If you're interested in the Enneagram, personality types, self-awareness, emotional growth, or personal development, this episode offers a refreshing perspective: you don’t need to fix yourself to grow.

In this powerful Living Well Enneagram Podcast episode, Jen Stanley sits down with Roz Harris for an honest “intermission story” about career success, identity shifts, and stepping into Act Two.

Roz shares how she built a high-level corporate career—complete with Wall Street experience, an MBA, and leadership roles at companies like Procter & Gamble and Eli Lilly—yet still felt something missing. Despite outward achievement, she experienced repeated internal “implosions,” realizing success without relational depth left her feeling unseen.

In this episode, Roz shares:

• How discovering she is an Enneagram 8 brought clarity to 20 years of drive, intensity, and relational struggles

• Why inner work was harder than rebuilding a business

• How letting go of control expanded her world

• What it looks like to move from achievement to authenticity

  
  

Now in Act Two, Roz has launched Emerge Personal Training in Noblesville, Indiana, focused on helping women rebuild strength during life transitions without shame.

If you’re navigating midlife identity, career transitions, or rediscovering your purpose through the Enneagram, this conversation will remind you: sometimes the real transformation begins when you finally understand yourself.

Ever feel like you said “I’m sorry”… but the relationship still feels off?

In this Living Well Enneagram Podcast episode, Jen Stanley explores reconciliation, repair, and “do-overs” through the lens of The Five Apology Languages by Gary Chapman and Jennifer Thomas. Tune in as Jen breaks down:

• The five elements of an effective apology with an Enneagram layer

• Why certain parts of apologizing feel easier (or harder) depending on your type, triad, time orientation, and subtype

• How different types can unintentionally self-protect instead of repair

• A simple question to ask when you’ve apologized but the other person still doesn’t feel “back to normal”

From the 1’s struggle with personal fault to the 9’s tendency to withdraw, this episode provides practical, compassionate tools for healthier communication.

If you want to grow in emotional maturity, strengthen relationships, and make apologies that truly heal, this episode offers actionable insight for every Enneagram type.

Divorce is one of the most disorienting transitions a person can face, and yet, so many women are expected to just “figure it out.”

What happens when your life doesn’t follow the script you worked so hard to write?

In this episode of Divorce, Dating, and Do-Overs from the Living Well Enneagram Podcast, Jen sits down with Leah GiaQuinta to talk about intermission—that in-between season when Act One has ended and Act Two hasn’t fully begun.

Leah shares how becoming the healthiest version of herself disrupted the life she had carefully built, and how navigating that unexpected pause reshaped her identity, ambition, and sense of success. As an Enneagram 3, learning to release the need to “do it right” and redefine what winning looks like became part of her healing.

This episode is for anyone who:

• Did all the “right things” and still feels untethered

• Is standing in the middle of a transition they didn’t plan

• Is learning that growth doesn’t always look like progress

  
  

Act Two rarely comes with a roadmap, but it can arrive with clarity. Listen now on the Living Well Enneagram Podcast.

This is a ‘wrap’ for That’s a Wrap!

In this final episode of “That’s a Wrap: What 2025 Taught Us”, Enneagram coach Jen Stanley sits down with her daughter, Anna Stanley, a recent college graduate, video editor for Imprint Media, and Enneagram Type 4. Together, they reflect on the last three Living Well Enneagram Podcast series of the year:

• Monsters Within: Why self-awareness is the first step in interrupting self-sabotage, and how each Enneagram type faces a different internal struggle

• The Art of Giving: How shifting the focus from “my number” to loving other numbers well transformed the series (and introduced the Enneagram Candle Collection)

• Calm and Bright: Practical tools for navigating holiday chaos, including Jen’s three intentional “gifts” for every Enneagram type

Anna also shares candidly about the transition from college into the “real world,” and why the Enneagram became a grounding anchor when everything else felt uncertain.

Whether you’re brand new to the Enneagram, navigating a major life transition, or revisiting the most impactful conversations of 2025, this episode offers reflection, wisdom, and hope.
