I met Jessica at the Powerhouse Women Mastermind.
And this Enneagram 5 decided to work one-on-one with me after recognizing there was a missing piece for her.
Listen now
Enneagram 5s in the entrepreneurial space are rare.
But when they really embody and step into that space, there’s nobody like them. Personally, I think they’re the most brilliant on the Enneagram.
Enneagram 5s have the motivational need to know and understand things and value making sense of the world around them.
But this means they can also go down the rabbit hole. They are also master energy and resource hoarders and offer the gift of non-attachment to themselves and the world, which is super helpful in business.
Here’s where they can get into trouble: They can be stingy at times.
They can be stingy with their information and energy. They can also be intellectually arrogant and disconnected from their hearts, retreating to their minds to avoid being intruded on or overwhelmed.
During this podcast, we explore Jessica’s journey and how being typed as a 5 changed her perspective of both herself and her entrepreneurial path.
