Let's do this thing.

Happy Thanksgiving. It is Thanksgiving day. Happy Thanksgiving. It is Thanksgiving Day. I know that you may not be listening today, or maybe you are cooking up your turkeys and gathering around family, or maybe you're spending it alone, which I did many, many, many years and after I got divorced. Whatever the case is for you, I want you to know there is somebody out here that is thankful for you, and that is me. Seriously, I'm so grateful that you have chosen to, you know, tune in to hear what I have to say. There are moments I'm like, I hit record. I'm like, who the hell really wants to hear from me? But you've told me that you have gained something from it, and for that, I am thankful for. Today, I thought I'd do a fun little show about all the things I'm thankful for based on their Enneagram type. Because one of the things that really helped me, you know, really learn from other people and have compassion for other people and humble myself enough to know, like, you know, the things that I think I'm great at. Yes, I am. But it's kind of the delivery and the expression of what I'm great at that makes all the difference. And understanding the framework and system and integrating the Enneagram into my life has been the game changer. And it's why the relationships that I choose to have, whether it's personally or professionally, are all really, really solid. And I will say, most people walk away from me feeling completely seen, heard, and understood. But I needed to find all the things about the other eight types that I was thankful for. In my early stages, when I was like, I don't understand how the hell you even operate, right? Number one was being my daughter, who's an enneagram7. And it was in understanding and learning about the other Enneagram types that I became thankful for. The gifts that all of the other ones brought to the table. And I know when you're dealing with people that don't think like you or operate like you, you can become little Judge Judy, right? And it isn't the most humbling experience. So I wanted to bring you the things you can be thankful for for each Enneagram type in your life. So, my Enneagram Ones, my reformers, my improvers, I like to call you the sheriff in town. What I am most thankful and what we can all be thankful for, is your integrity. You guys always operate at the highest of integrity. You're straight shooting right or wrong. You follow the rules, you raise the standards up way high, so you make us all better. And. And your attention to detail seriously keeps me from just like, plowing through life. So my Enneagram Ones out there, I want you to know I'm thankful for you. I hope that you are giving yourself a break today and, you know, having a little fun. My Enneagram Twos. We are thankful for your very warm heart and your focus and commitment to relationships and your ability to connect human souls. You really keep the heart in what we're all here to do. And I know raising an Enneagram to son has allowed me to understand what true compassion looks like. And because he leads by example, it makes me lean into it more too. I hope that you are doing something for yourself, though, today. You know, you are the helper, but your worth isn't in what you do for other people. I want you to do something totally that is only for you. That this week, just know we are all thankful for you. The Enneagram 3, the Achievers. Oh my goodness. Do we appreciate and admire you. Your ambition, your resourcefulness, your grittiness, and your work ethic really raise the bar for all of us. We all admire you. We really, really do. And I know all my Enneagram Threes are like, hell yeah, you do. I'm the best. And even though you're saying that, I know you don't always believe it. But I want you Enneagram Threes to know that we are thankful for your gift. And you are not worthy just because of those. I want you to know that we think you're amazing. Not because of what you do say, or what you achieve or how you appear. We are thankful for you just because you. You really just show up to life. And I want you to show up for you too. Not just what you do. All right. Enneagram Fours. The individualist, the romantic. You guys. The Enneagram Fours. You bring heart to the matters of everything. You really make us all feel all the things. I know the Fours in my life. You drive me crazy. But you also make me feel things that I really have worked hard to not. And that's not always a good thing. You guys are courageous, and you bring a beauty and essence to the world that nobody else does. You are the creatives, you are the artistic ones. You are the the best storytellers and hold space emotionally better than anybody else. On the Enneagram, I want you to know that you have everything that you should ever need. There is not something missing in you. You are unique and authentic. Just know that for my Enneagram Fours out there, there's nothing missing in you. All right. Our Enneagram Fives, what we are most thankful for you is your inventive mind, your wisdom, your ability to be objective and disconnected emotionally. Right? Like that is a gift sometimes, because when things get heated, emotions can take over. Your calm, stoic presence and your independence really keep the main thing the main thing. And I've said this before, if I was to be stuck on an island with any Enneagram type, it'd probably be a 5. I admire your willingness to really become an expert at anything that excites you. I hope that you know that you have plenty of resources and energy and that you spend time with people that love and adore you. You don't need to isolate in order to be filled up energetically. You don't need to hoard all that. So please, just let us experience your brilliance and wisdom, too. My Enneagram Sixes, my bestie in my life is a six. So I am super thankful for the Enneagram Six. And what we love about you and are thankful for is your devotion, your preparedness, the trustworthiness, your attention to detail as well. You keep us all out of a hell of a lot of trouble. And so for somebody who's a more assertive, you know, bull in a china shop kind of personality, the Sixes in my life really allow me to slow my roll a little bit and not have as much wreckage. The Sixes work so well with other people that they make collab fun, beautiful, easy, and not a terrible experience. We are grateful for you for my Enneagram Sixes, though. I want you to really know that even if things don't go exactly how you. You thought they would, that there's something beautiful in that experience for you. I know that for the Enneagram Sixes, that's like, that's the last thing that they want, but I want you to know that sometimes the biggest gifts come in the journey and that can sometimes include you didn't see coming. So just kind of buckle up and enjoy the ride. All right. The Enneagram Sevens. We are so thankful for your enthusiasm, the optimism that you bring to any situation, the free spirit. You bring innocence back into all of us. And for somebody like me that had to grow up way, way, way, way, way before, I should have had to. Even though I didn't always understand or Respect the enneagram7, you guys are my great. You really, really are. You bring the innocence and playfulness back out in so many of us. You let us believe and you show us that anything is possible and that we can have fun doing hard things. So I would just want to thank all of my Enneagram Sevens out there. And as a reminder, if you are an enneagram7 that you know, just because you're optimistic and enthusiastic and look for fun all the time, I want you to know that you can have an off day and we don't expect you to be on 24 7. And that it is okay for you to have hard feelings and you don't have to run from them or escape them or bounce from thing to thing just to not feel them. You know, speaking up and using your voice and letting those around you love you and let them be the positive poly for you from time to time will allow that free spirit to flow more harmoniously through your life. I love you guys. You Sevens are amazing. My enthusiastic visionaries. All right, my fellow eights, the protective challengers. I appreciate you. It's like we speak the same language. We're a very rare breed. And I appreciate the other eights that I know that have that decisive, take charge, protective, no bullshit, straight shooting, directness. I'm a bottom line me kind of girl. My friends used to call me bottom line me because I don't want bullshit, just bottom line me straight shoot me. No mixed signals. I appreciate that. About the enneagram8 I love also, we are all thankful for the eights that will go into a burning building and not think about the consequences. The eights that will put on the gloves and stand up for the vulnerable and the innocent and protect those that maybe can't protect themselves. For my fellow eights out there, I want you to know also that your real strength and your real power comes in your ability and willingness to be vulnerable and say that you're scared or that you need support from time to time. I still work on that one every day, but that actually is where our power is at. So my. My fellow challengers, I love you. And finally, our Enneagram Nines, the adaptive Peacemaker. I am so thankful that I have a nine wing. First and foremost, you keep me out of trouble, but the ability to see the bigger picture better than any of the other Enneagram types. You sit at the top. You're the kings and queens of the Enneagram. So you have a vision that the rest of us do not have. I am thankful for your open mind, your bigger picture vision, and the ability to make everyone not feel judged and feel included. It is a beautiful gift that you bring to the world. You have the ability to care deeply, but also challenge directly when you are looking out for what's great. So it's a win win for everyone. For everyone. And you do it in such a way that is elegant and filled with grace and class. And for that, I am grateful. Again, I am so thankful for all of you and all your different Enneagram types and how you allow me to step into a greater version of myself. I learn something from each and every one of you. Your gifts, your talents, your fears, your vulnerabilities, your strengths all humble me every day. It really, really does. And you allow me, by you showing me your heart and your soul, you allow me to become better for all of you too. And I'm so grateful. I hope you all have a beautiful, beautiful Thanksgiving. I am so thankful that you choose to tune in in the millions and millions of podcasts that are out there. The fact that you are even listening for two minutes of a podcast of mine, it does. I don't take that lightly. I take it very seriously. It is a beautiful reward in my life. And with great reward comes great responsibility. And my goal is always is to help you become the ultimate leader in your life. And if you are wanting to dive deeper into your journey on the Enneagram or any parts of your life, you know the Enneagram is just a tool that I use. I do deep, deep, deep diving so that you can become bulletproof in your life, so that you can handle anything that comes your way without a pile of wreckage.
