#36 - Enneagram 101: What is an Enneagram 9? with Timmy Miller

#38 - Better In-Law Relationships & Family Dynamics with Ro Elliott (2)

This episode is full of wisdom about family dynamics, and specifically about in-laws. What happens when the house goes quiet and the role that defined you for decades suddenly ends? Roe joins us to share how a 27-year homeschooling season gave way to big questions about what to do next. Ro found her passion in the Enneagram, both with personal discovery and helping others through coaching.  When she discovered she’s a Type Two, her history of overhelping, blurred lines, and “being needed” finally made sense. From there, the smallest shifts—asking “Is this mine to do?” and waiting to be invited—changed the tone of her marriage and reshaped her relationships with her kids and their spouses. We dig into real family dynamics: an Eight daughter who values autonomy, a house full of Nines who prefer calm, and in-laws who bring new cultures into a fixed family system. Ro unpacks how to navigate traditions, expectations, and control without hardening your heart.  I loved hearing Ro's stories of how different Enneagram types interacted in her home. She also has done amazing work to have beautiful relationships with her daughter-in-laws and son-in-law. Great episode for gaining wisdom about family dynamics.

#36 - Enneagram 101: What is an Enneagram 9? with Timmy Miller

Timmy Miller guides us to learn about Enneagram Nines! Type 9 is known as “The Peacekeeper” or “The Accomodater.”  Nines seek peace and harmony within themselves, their environment, and the groups of people around them. Timmy discusses the Type Nine desire for connection and harmony, as well as their value on hearing other peoples' perspectives.  Nines fear conflict because it may cause disconnection; they prefer to go along with others instead of rocking the boat. We also learn about the Gut Triad and how Nines have trouble listening to their own gut instincts. Timmy Miller is an HR Director in Northwest Indiana. He and his wife Ariel (Type 2) were on Episode #1 of this podcast.
