Today on the podcast, Beth and Jeff talk about how the gospel satisfies each Type's Core Longing—the central message your heart longs to hear. We pray this episode fills your heart with truth and hope. We know this year has been challenging, and you can't always see the ways God is answering the longing of your heart, but rest assured that the story is not over. What started over 2000 years ago ends with an everlasting throne.We have many more amazing Enneagram for Moms resources at www.enneagramformoms.com. FREE Enneagram resources here: https://www.yourenneagramcoach.com/podcastresources Find an Enneagram Coach - https://myenneagramcoach.com/ Become an Enneagram Coach Course - https://www.yourenneagramcoach.com/bec #Enneagram #PersonalityTypes #EnneagramCoach

Today on the podcast Beth and Jeff discuss two reasons many of us have a difficult time, emotionally, when we visit family. Beth helps us recognize our interpreted childhood message- a painful message we were told directly or sensed indirectly when we were children. She also takes a deep dive into our blindspot paths and gives us tools for some profound insights into how we’ve been seeing the world for our entire lives.We have many more amazing Enneagram for Moms resources at www.enneagramformoms.com. FREE Enneagram resources here: https://www.yourenneagramcoach.com/podcastresources Find an Enneagram Coach - https://myenneagramcoach.com/ Become an Enneagram Coach Course - https://www.yourenneagramcoach.com/bec #Enneagram #PersonalityTypes #EnneagramCoach
