How does your past shape your present relationships? This week's episode is a treasure trove of insights that you won't want to miss!
Join us as we sit down with the insightful Ike Miller, PhD, author, pastor, and Enneagram Three, who brings a fresh perspective on how the baggage we carry from our childhood isn't all bad. In fact, it might just be the key to unlocking healthier relationships and a more authentic self.
Ike's new book, "Good Baggage," challenges the notion that all our past experiences weigh us down. Instead, he invites us to sift through our stories and find the hidden tools that can lead to personal growth and relational health.
In this episode, you'll discover:
Ike's journey with the Enneagram and how it helped him understand his motivations and fears.
The core fear of the Enneagram Three and how it can manifest in daily life.
Strategies for self-differentiation and setting healthy boundaries
The importance of authenticity in leadership and personal relationships.
And much more!
Whether you're an Enneagram Three wrestling with image management or someone curious about how to leverage your past for a better future, this conversation is for you.
As always, we're here to support you in your journey of self-discovery and growth. If you find this episode as enlightening as we did, share it with a friend who might also benefit from Ike's wisdom.
Until next time, keep exploring the mystery of your unique personality and remember, "May you have love, may you have joy, may you have peace, may you have healing, and may you have rest.”
