BubblegumBabble • 5/18/2024 6:58:15 PM

Hey everyone! 🌟 I've been diving into the fascinating world of the Enneagram and would love some insights on the 9w8 type. As a core Type 9 with an assertive 8 wing, how does this unique blend of traits manifest in day-to-day life? Specifically, I'm curious about: 1. How do 9w8s navigate conflict given their peacemaking core and assertive wing? 2. What strengths and challenges are common for this type? 3. How do they balance their need for peace with the 8's desire for control and influence? Any personal experiences, tips, or resources would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance 😊 #Enneagram #9w8 #PersonalityTypes #SelfGrowth

Hey everyone! 😊 I've been diving deep into the Enneagram lately and am particularly fascinated by the 9w8 type. I know the core motivation of Type 9 is to seek peace and avoid conflict, while the 8 wing adds a layer of assertiveness and strength. For those of you who identify as 9w8 or have close experiences with someone who is, how do you balance the intrinsic desire for harmony (Type 9) with the assertiveness and sometimes confrontational nature of the 8 wing? 🤔 Also, in what ways do you see this unique blend influencing your relationships and decision-making? Any personal stories or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your thoughts and wisdom! 💬 #Enneagram #9w8 #SelfDiscovery

Hey everyone! 😊 I've been diving into the fascinating world of the Enneagram recently and have discovered that I resonate most with the Type 9 with an 8 wing, also known as 9w8. I understand that this combination blends the peaceful nature of the 9 with the assertiveness of the 8, creating a unique personality mix. However, I'm curious to hear from those of you who identify as 9w8 or know someone who does: How does this combination manifest in your daily life? Specifically, how do you balance the desire for peace and harmony typical of 9s with the strong, assertive qualities of the 8 wing? Are there any particular challenges or advantages you've noticed? And how do you cope with conflicts or stressful situations? Thanks in advance for sharing your insights! Looking forward to learning from your experiences. 🌟 #Enneagram #Type9w8 #PersonalityTypes #SelfDiscovery

Hi everyone! 😊 I'm curious about the dynamics of being a 9w8. I've been reading up on how the Type 9's peacemaking tendencies balance with the assertive, protective traits of the Type 8 wing. Are there any 9w8s here who can share their experiences on how this blend affects your daily life and relationships? I'm particularly interested in: - How you manage conflict given the Type 9’s dislike for it and the Type 8's confrontational side. - Ways you stay motivated and driven while keeping inner peace. - Any challenges or strengths unique to this combination. Looking forward to hearing your insights! Thanks! 🙏 #9w8 #Enneagram #Peacemaker #Challenger #SelfGrowth

Hey everyone! 👋 I'm trying to get a deeper understanding of the Enneagram, specifically about Type 9 with an 8-wing (9w8). From what I gather, 9w8s are often described as peaceful yet assertive, blending the easygoing nature of a Nine with the strength and decisiveness of an Eight. For those of you who identify as 9w8, how do you find that the 8-wing influences your typical Type 9 traits? Do you struggle with inner conflicts between wanting to keep the peace and asserting your own needs? Also, how does this combo impact your relationships, especially in situations requiring confrontation or setting boundaries? Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated! 😊 Thanks!

Hey everyone! 😊 I’ve been exploring the Enneagram and recently discovered that I’m a 9w8. I’m curious to hear from others who share this type and wing combination. How do you find that the assertiveness and decisiveness of the 8 wing impact your usually easy-going, peacemaking 9 type? Do you find it challenging to balance these seemingly contrasting traits? How do you navigate situations where your 9 tendencies to avoid conflict clash with your 8 wing’s drive for control and strength? Also, any tips for leveraging the strengths of both types in personal and professional environments would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! 🙏 Looking forward to your insights! #Enneagram #Type9w8 #SelfGrowth #InnerBalance

Hi everyone! 👋 I've been diving deep into the Enneagram and am particularly curious about the 9w8 combination. As I understand it, Type 9s are the peacemakers who value harmony and avoiding conflict, whereas the 8 wing brings in some assertiveness, independence, and a stronger sense of protection. For those who identify as 9w8 or know someone who does, how do you see the dynamics between the core type and the wing playing out in everyday life? Do you find that the assertive nature of the 8 wing helps in setting boundaries more effectively, or does it create inner conflict with the 9's desire to keep the peace? I'd love to hear about personal experiences, struggles, or growth moments for 9w8s. 🌟 Any insights or resources would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! 🙏 #EnneagramJourney #Type9w8
