Hey everyone! 😊 I’ve been diving into the Enneagram recently and found out I'm a 7w8. I’m super curious to hear from others with the same type and wing combination! How do you balance the adventurous and optimistic side of the 7 with the assertive and protective traits of the 8 wing? I often find myself vacillating between wanting to explore every new opportunity (7) and feeling a strong need to be in control and assert my presence (8). It can feel like a tug-of-war at times! How do you manage these dynamics in your personal and professional life? Are there specific strategies or practices you’ve found helpful in harmonizing these aspects of your personality? I'd love to hear your experiences and any advice you can share! Thanks! 🙏 #Enneagram #7w8 #SelfDiscovery #PersonalityGrowth

Hey everyone! 🌟 I’m diving deep into understanding the 7w8 type and could really use your insights! 🤔 As a core Type 7 (The Enthusiast) with an 8 wing (The Challenger), how does the combination of these traits typically manifest in daily life, relationships, and career choices? From what I've read, the adventurous and spontaneous nature of the 7 blends with the assertiveness and drive of the 8. But I'm curious about your personal experiences or observations. 1️⃣ How does the 7w8 manage the potential inner conflict between the desire for freedom and the need for control? 2️⃣ What are some strengths and challenges you've noticed in 7w8 individuals regarding their interpersonal interactions? 3️⃣ Any advice on how 7w8s can leverage their unique energy to foster both personal growth and meaningful connections? Looking forward to learning from all of you! 🌿 Thanks in advance for your wisdom and anecdotes! 🙏 #Enneagram #Type7w8 #PersonalGrowth #Relationships #Introspection

Hey everyone! 😊 I’m curious about the unique dynamics of being a 7w8. It seems like such a fascinating blend of the Enthusiast and the Challenger traits. For those of you who identify as 7w8, how do you experience the push and pull between seeking freedom, adventure, and excitement (Type 7) while also having the assertiveness, determination, and sometimes confrontational nature of the 8 wing? How do these two sides show up in your daily life, relationships, and decision-making? Do you find it challenging to strike a balance between spontaneity and assertiveness? Would love to hear your insights and any tips you might have for navigating this dynamic mix! Thanks! 🙏 #Enneagram7w8 #EnneagramType7

Hey everyone! 😊 I’ve been diving into the Enneagram recently and I'm particularly interested in the 7w8 type. I understand that Type 7s, "The Enthusiasts," are typically adventurous, spontaneous, and love seeking new experiences, while 8s, "The Challengers," are strong-willed and assertive. For those of you who identify as a 7w8 or know someone who does, how do you find the balance between the enthusiastic, fun-loving nature of a 7 and the assertive, sometimes confrontational traits of an 8? Do you feel the 8 wing intensifies certain characteristics, like driving you to take more risks or stand up more fiercely for your beliefs? I’d love to hear any personal anecdotes, strategies for growth, or insights on how the 7w8 dynamic plays out in your life. 🌟 Thanks in advance for sharing your wisdom! #Enneagram #Type7w8 #PersonalGrowth

Hey everyone! 😊 I've been really diving into the world of Enneagrams and I find the 7w8 type especially intriguing, so I wanted to get some insights from those of you who identify as a 7w8 or know someone who does. From what I understand, Type 7s are known for their enthusiastic, adventurous, and spontaneous nature, always seeking new experiences. The 8 wing seems to add a layer of assertiveness, confidence, and a bit of a tough exterior. How does this blend play out in real-life situations? For those who are 7w8s: 1. How do you balance your desire for fun and new experiences with the assertive and sometimes dominant traits of your wing? 2. Do you find it difficult to slow down and stay grounded, especially when challenges arise? 3. How do the 7 and 8 traits manifest in your relationships and work life? And for those who know a 7w8: 1. What stand-out characteristics have you noticed in them? 2. How do they handle stress or conflict given their dynamic personality? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences! Thanks in advance. 🙏 #Enneagram #7w8 #PersonalityTypes

Hey everyone! 👋 I'm diving deeper into the fascinating world of Enneagrams and have been exploring the Type 7 wing 8 (7w8) combination. I understand that Type 7s are often enthusiastic, spontaneous, and adventurous, always seeking new experiences. On the other hand, the 8 wing adds assertiveness, confidence, and a bit of a protective nature. My question is: How does the 8 wing influence the typical behaviors and motivations of a Type 7? For those of you who identify as 7w8 or know someone who does, what strengths and challenges have you noticed? Do you find that the assertive nature of 8 helps in grounding the often scattered energy of a 7, or does it create tension and conflict? Also, how do you see the balance between seeking freedom and taking control playing out in your daily life? Looking forward to hearing your insights and experiences! 😊 Thanks!
