Entrepreneurship + The Enneagram

Type 9 Entrepreneurs — The Power of Finally Choosing Yourself

If you’re an Enneagram Type 9, you’ve probably had some really great ideas for your business… felt excited about them… maybe even started taking action… and then found yourself drifting into other things, waiting for the “right” energy to come back. In this episode, we’re unpacking why that happens—and what it actually means. Because the struggle for Type 9 entrepreneurs is rarely about capability. It’s about connection. Connection to your voice, your values, and what truly matters to you. We’ll talk about what “sloth” really looks like for a 9 (it’s not laziness), how self-forgetting shows up in everyday life and business, and why you can be incredibly productive… while still moving further away from what you actually want. We also touch on narcotization—that subtle tendency to check out or avoid when things feel uncomfortable—and how to recognize it in real time. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the right things but something still feels off, this episode will help you understand why. IN THIS EPISODE: * Why Type 9s can struggle with follow-through (even when they care deeply) * The difference between rest and avoidance * What self-forgetting actually looks like * How alignment creates energy and momentum * What leadership can look like for a Type 9 * How to choose business and marketing rhythms that actually fit you ___________________________________________ Ready to build a business that actually fits you?

Introduction to E & E — Why The Enneagram Matters In Your Business

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything you’re “supposed” to do in business, but something still feels off—like it doesn’t fully align with who you are—this episode is for you. In this introduction, I’m sharing why I created this podcast, how the Enneagram completely changed the way I understand business, and what I’ve learned after working with hundreds of women building service-based businesses. We’ll talk about why most business advice doesn’t work for everyone, how personality shapes the way you build, and what it looks like to create something that actually fits you. And I’ll briefly walk you through all 9 Enneagram types—so you can start to see yourself and what’s ahead in this series. _________________________________________________ Ready to build a business that actually fits you?
