In this episode of Limitless Laowai, we're continuing our series on "Creating amazing relationships: understanding the transformative power of the Enneagram. In this episode, we'll explore "Type 8 The Challenger." Eights live life with great gusto and feel very comfortable with anger. Eights like partners who are independent and strong but can also be strictly controlling when they feel vulnerable. Eights rarely allow themselves to be hurt by others and are often on the lookout for confrontation as a way to easing their anxiety. Eights are extremely direct and will tell you what they want and a happy eight will bring a party with them wherever they go. But be prepared to fight. For Eights, this is a natural way to determine loyalty....Does that describe someone you know? Tune in to learn more!
