Enneagram Type and Wing 8w7

BubblegumBabble • 5/31/2024 11:44:41 PM

Hey everyone! 🙋‍♀️ I’ve been reading up on Enneagram Type 8 and its wings, particularly 8w7, and I’m curious to hear personal experiences from those who identify as 8w7. How do you see your 7 wing influencing your core Type 8 traits? Do you notice a significant difference in your behavior or thought patterns compared to a "pure" Type 8 or an 8w9? For instance, do you feel the adventurous, spontaneous side of the 7 wing complements or conflicts with the assertive, controlling nature of an 8? Also, how do you handle stress and relaxation, knowing that 8s often go to 5 in stress and 2 in growth? I’d love to hear your stories, insights, and any practical tips you have on balancing the dual energies of the 8 and 7 personalities! 🙌🏼 Thank you! 😊 #Enneagram8w7 #Type8with7Wing #EnneagramJourney #SelfDiscovery

Hey everyone! 😊 I've been diving deep into the Enneagram and am curious about the Type 8w7 ("The Maverick" or "The Challenger with a Twist"). I understand that Type 8s are typically strong, assertive, and protective, while the 7 wing brings in a sense of adventure and spontaneity. How do you think the combination of these traits manifests in real life? Specifically, I'm interested in: - How do 8w7s balance their dominant, assertive nature with the more fun-loving, impulsive side from their 7 wing? - What challenges or strengths have you noticed in 8w7s, either in yourself or others? - Are there any particular strategies or practices that help 8w7s maintain balance and healthy relationships? Would love to hear personal stories, tips, or even recommendations for further reading on this dynamic combo. Thanks in advance for sharing your insights! 💡 #Enneagram #Type8w7 #PersonalityTypes

Hello everyone! I've been diving deep into the Enneagram recently and find myself really resonating with Type 8w7. As we know, Type 8s are known for their assertiveness, leadership qualities, and desire for control, while the 7 wing adds a sense of adventure, spontaneity, and enthusiasm to the mix. I'm curious to hear from other 8w7s or those who know them well. How do you balance the strong, take-charge nature of the 8 with the fun-loving, impulsive side of the 7 wing? Do you find that one aspect tends to dominate over the other in certain situations? How has this combination impacted your relationships, career choices, and personal growth? Looking forward to your insights and experiences! 😊 Thanks!

Hey everyone! 🌟 I'm diving deep into the Enneagram and I'm really curious about the 8w7 type. I understand that Type 8, the Challenger, is characterized by a strong, assertive, and protective nature, while the 7 wing adds a sense of adventure, spontaneity, and a desire for new experiences. For those who identify as 8w7 or know someone who does, how do you balance these intense, sometimes opposing drives? Do you find the 7 wing softens the 8’s assertiveness or does it amplify the need to be always on the go, seeking new challenges and excitement? How do you manage the potential stress of constantly pushing boundaries while also seeking freedom and joy? Looking forward to hearing your experiences and insights! 😊 Thanks in advance for sharing.

I've read a lot about the core traits of an Enneagram 8 and the influence of the 7 wing, but I'm hoping to get a more personal perspective. If you identify as an 8w7 or know someone who does, can you share: - How do you balance the intense, protective nature of the 8 with the enthusiastic, spontaneous tendencies of the 7? - What challenges do you face in relationships, work, or self-growth? - How do you manage stress and what strategies have worked for you? Thanks in advance! 😄 Looking forward to learning from your insights.
