Hi everyone! 🌟 I'm curious about the dynamics of the 7w8 type. As I understand, 7s are often described as enthusiastic, adventurous, and seeking new experiences, while the 8 wing brings in assertiveness and a desire for control. How do you see these two aspects playing out in real life? For those identifying as 7w8 (or knowing someone who does), how do you balance the spontaneous, fun-seeking nature of the 7 with the bold, sometimes confrontational characteristics of the 8 wing? Does the 8 wing significantly influence your decision-making or ways of dealing with stress? Are there specific situations where you feel more 7 or more 8? I'd love to hear personal stories, examples, or any insights you might have about navigating this unique blend of traits! If there are any resources you recommend for better understanding the 7w8, I'd be grateful for those too. Thanks so much! 😊 #Enneagram #7w8 #PersonalityTypes #SelfGrowth #Insights #Questions Looking forward to the discussion!

Hey everyone! 👋 I'm curious about the dynamics of being an Enneagram 7 with an 8 wing (7w8). I've read that this combination can be a bit more intense and assertive than other Type 7 wings. How does the 8 wing influence a Type 7's usual traits of seeking fun and avoiding pain? Specifically, I'd love to hear from any 7w8s out there: 1. How do you balance your adventurous spirit with the assertiveness and need for control that comes from the 8 wing? 2. Have you found any particular strategies that help you manage the potential for conflict that can arise from this combination? 3. Do you feel that the 8 wing helps you in any specific careers or relationships? Any personal experiences, tips, or insights would be greatly appreciated! 🙏 Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone! 😊 I'm delving deep into the Enneagram and would love to hear your insights on the 7w8 type. From what I understand, a Type 7 with an 8 wing combines the adventurous and enthusiastic spirit of a Seven with the assertive, protective qualities of an Eight. How does this combination manifest in daily life, relationships, and career choices? For those of you who identify as 7w8 or know someone who does, what strengths and challenges have you observed? 📚✨ Additionally, how do you balance the need for variety and spontaneity (traits of Type 7) with the desire for control and assertiveness (traits of Type 8)?

Hey everyone! 🌟 I've been diving deep into the Enneagram and have a question about Type 7 with an 8 wing (7w8). I know that 7s are often described as enthusiastic, spontaneous adventurers who love exploring new possibilities, while 8s are assertive, confident, and protective. How does the 8 wing influence a typical 7? Does it balance the 7’s constant search for new experiences with more assertiveness and decisiveness? Also, how do 7w8s typically handle stress and conflict compared to pure Type 7s or even 7w6s? Looking forward to hearing your insights and personal experiences. 🌈✨ #Enneagram #Type7w8 #PersonalityGrowth
