Typology Podcast with Ian Morgan Cron: Type 9 & 8 Thriving in a Marriage-Business Relationship
Y’all, I am so excited about this! Steven and I had such a beautiful, life-giving conversation on this episode of Typology with Ian Morgan Cron! Typology is one of my favorite podcasts, and I’ve learned so much from Ian’s books about how to live more fully as God made me, as an Enneagram 9, The Peacemaker. On this episode, I share more about my upcoming book, The Kindred Life, and you get to hear both Steven and I talk about what it’s like for an Enneagram 8 and 9 to be married to each other and also in business together.
One of the highlights for me was when Ian called me a “nature mystic.” From one believer to another, I felt so seen - I feel like my relationship with God and my view of the Gospel has only been enhanced and enlivened through my connection with Creation. 🌿
Episode summary from Typology:
“What happens when an unstoppable force meets an unmovable object? Well, it can either be a recipe for a really great relationship…or a not-so-great one. But when a Peacemaker and a Challenger are both healthy, they bring out the best in each other.
Today’s guests, Christine and Steve Bailey show us how learning to balance their differences as an Enneagram 9 and an Enneagram 8 has helped their marriage and their business thrive. We explore the dynamics between their relationship and how learning to speak each other’s language and tapping into the other’s strengths fosters a perfect yin-yang relationship.”
