  • EP 30: Exploring the Enneagram with Jess Gaertner

    05/02/2020 Duration: 56min

    In this episode, Laiken interviews Jess Gaertner on the Enneagram and they talk about how you can get to know yourself a little bit more all in this one little (not really!) number! The enneagram is something that is extremely popular right now, and in our opinon, for good reason. As Jess mentions in this episode, it allows you to see what box it puts you in and also how to step out of it. It's a great conversation about not only the enneagram but also  how we have found ourselves in our lives and how we can now understand why we do what we do and the way we do it because of the Enneagram! We hope you enjoy this episode and make sure you check out Jess over on all of the spaces below!
