Stephanie Jaie is back for a final episode in our three part series on sexual empowerment. In this episode Kara and Stephanie discuss their experience of erotic energy and how it has supported their own emergence.  What is the role of pleasure and how do we connect with it? Why do people fear sexual instinctual energy? And for our typology friends, further exploration of Stephanie's Enneagram Type (is she a three or a seven???) and instinctual stack.  Kara enjoys coaching couples and individuals that are experiencing issues around the sexuality circuit. She uses typology, resonant healing, and nonviolent communication to support healing and connection.

Stephanie Jaie is back again to discuss sexuality and the ways its been distorted in a way that blocks us from our power. We touch on the topics of generational trauma, the ways a trauma response can present in different Enneagram types, privilege, and how to respond to some of the more common responses.  I will be offering a four week Enneagram Overview starting Wednesday July 26th from 6:30-8:30 CST for beginners that want to have a more solid basic understanding of the system and types or for intermediate and advanced students that want to bring real life learnings from the perspective of the type. Visit KaraNanceMD.com to register for class. If you would like to work with Stephanie, check out her website at https://www.stephaniejaie.com/ for more information.

The Blindspot An Enneagram Podcast is back for Season 2!  Loyal listeners will know that Season 1 morphed from focusing solely on the Enneagram and Instinctual Drives into welcoming in other forms of typology to help us make sense of our experience. In this interview with @StephanieJaie we hear about how my use of typology leads to a deeper understanding of her life's journey. Stephanie is also wired with high levels of point three and seven energy and also leads with extraverted intuition as an ENFP. Over the course of a few interviews we came to believe that Stephanie probably fixates at the point three energy like I do, but is Sexual dominant and Self Preservation blind in contrast to my Self Preservation dominance and Sexual blind. Enjoy this episode to learn more about how the two types present and navigate the world. Wanting to learn about the Enneagram basics?
