    6 or a 7? What I'm Learning About Self-Awareness at College | a conversation with Payge Wicks

    Send us Fan Mail Wholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types Bonus Episode 6-7 Two years ago, Payge Wicks sat down with her mom right after graduating high school, a 17-year-old still figuring out who she was. Today, she's just finished her junior year in college, studying psychology in Phoenix, 18 hours from home, and she has something real to say about what it actually looks like to be a Seven in the most formative years of your life. In this conversation, Amy and Payge pick up the thread they started two years ago, including the great Six vs. Seven question that Payge has been quietly wrestling with ever since and explore what personality awareness, faith, and genuine formation actually look like when you're living in a dorm, navigating roommates, building independence, and figuring out who God made you to be without your family right down the hall. This is a different kind of Seven conversation. Not an expert looking back from a distance, but a Seven in the thick of becoming, with enough self-awareness to name what's actually happening. In this conversation: The 6 vs. 7 question what made Payge wonder, and what living independently finally clarifiedHow FOMO shows up in college in ways you might not expect, including why staying connected to home is genuinely a Seven thingThe psychology of staying: how a Seven commits to something long-term without feeling trappedWhat Payge has discovered about God in the last two years that she couldn't access at 17Roommate dynamics through a Seven lens and how community can actually push a Seven toward growthSelf-awareness as a practical tool: why knowing your type matters when your day feels inexplicably awfulWhat Payge would tell every incoming college student and every parent watching their kid walk across that stage Support the show RESOURCES FOR YOU: Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

    Send us Fan Mail Wholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types | Enneagram Seven | BONUS When most people picture an Enneagram Seven, they think confetti cannons and perpetual motion. They do not picture a serious, introverted giraffe who goes a full seven days without leaving the house and runs three coaching calls a day by phone. And yet! That's exactly who Alli Worthington is. In this bonus conversation from Seven month, Amy sits down with author, business coach, and Enneagram Seven Alli Worthington for an honest, unscripted conversation about what the Seven actually looks like when she's self-preservation subtype, and what that means for how she works, leads, and builds community. Alli shares the moment the Enneagram finally clicked for her on the plane. She was weeping over The Road Back to You and realizing that everything she had built her professional life around was designed to destroy an Enneagram Seven. She talks about what it means to achieve for freedom rather than for achievement's sake, how she has built a business that genuinely fits how she's wired, and why curating the right community has been the through-line of everything she's done. It's a lighter, more conversational episode & a bonus in the truest sense. Pull up a chair, friend.  In this conversation: What a self-pres Seven actually looks and feels like, and why it surprises peopleThe serious giraffe vs. the confetti cannon, debunking the Seven stereotypeHow entrepreneurship became an accidental personal development journeyThe Road Back to You plane moment that changed everything professionallyAchieving for freedom vs. achieving for achievement's sake the Seven's real motivationBuilding a business and a life that fits how you're wired, not how you think you should workWalt Disney as a Seven entrepreneurial heroThe 2010 Hotel 71 piece of paper and what's still true 16 years laterHow to curate a community well and why the wrong community will destroy everythingAlli Worthington is a business coach, author, and host of the Alli Worthington Show.

    The Seven and Satisfaction | Subtypes, Relationships & Learning to Want What You Already Have with Christa Hardin

    Send us Fan Mail Wholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types | Enneagram Seven | Episode 4 of 4 The Enneagram Seven's longing for satisfaction, fullness, and aliveness is real and God-given. But what happens when that longing drives a relationship instead of enriching it? And what does it look like when a Seven finally learns to receive what's already in front of them rather than planning for what's next? In this closing episode of Seven month, Amy sits down with Christa Hardin, Enneagram expert, host of Enneagram in Marriage, fellow Seven, and author of the upcoming The Three Desires, for a conversation that is warm, specific, and full of the kind of insight that only comes from someone who has done deep personal work and spent years helping couples do the same. Together, they unpack how the three Seven subtypes show up very differently in marriage and close relationships, where the Seven's fixation on planning creates friction even when it's well-intentioned, and what it looks like to let God meet the longing rather than letting the longing run the show. Christa also shares her own faith story — including a season of disillusionment with the church, how her husband quietly brought her back in, and why she eventually chose to build her platform inside the Christian space even when it cost her listeners. This one is a beautiful close to Seven month. In this episode: The Seven's core gift in relationship — and the planning fixation that can quietly undermine itHow the three Seven subtypes show up differently in marriage: self-pres, sexual, and socialTime hoarding, family preservation, and the self-preserving Seven who looks like a Five or SixThe sexual Seven's depth and imagination — and the cautionary note that comes with itThe social Seven's nurturing energy — and the blind spot for overcommitmentWhat healthy satisfaction looks like for a Seven in a relationship — vs. what drives a relationship off courseGoing to the Five space — how solitude, gratitude, and reflection anchor the SevenChrista's faith journey — church wounds, a husband who opened the door, and why faith is her foundation for everything she buildsWhat people who love Sevens most need to understand — and the inner critic nobody sees comingA preview of Christa's upcoming book, The Three Desires, releasing February 2027Christa Hardin is the host of Enneagram in Marriage and author of The Three Desires: Reshaping Your Connection, Intimacy, and Teamwork in Your Marriage (February 2027).

    Running vs. Remaining | Understanding the Enneagram Type Seven with Heather Berg

    Send us Fan Mail The Enneagram Seven's instinct is to keep moving. More plans, more options, more yes. Yet underneath it all is a quiet, exhausting belief that if they slow down long enough, something painful will catch up with them. In this episode, Amy sits down with Heather Berg, a Wholehearted Enneagram Coach, trauma-informed practitioner, and Type Seven, to walk the Victim, Villain, Hero, Guide framework through the Seven's unique lens. Heather brings both her professional training and her own deeply personal story: betrayal trauma, a dark night of the soul, a season of chronic pain that literally stopped her in her tracks, and the retreat moment where Amy looked at her and said, "Heather, do you think you could be a Seven?"  and then something clicked that felt like meeting herself for the first time in years. This episode is for every Seven who is tired of running and suspects there might be something worth finding if they stopped. It's also for everyone who loves a Seven and wants to understand what's really happening underneath the energy. In this episode: The Seven's victim role, which can look like "monkey" mind, hypervigilance, and the longing to know who will look after me?Why Sevens can't outwit, outlast, or outplay pain, but what happens when they finally stop tryingThe villain role: self-abandonment and how the reframing that protects you can also hurt the people closest to youHeather's betrayal trauma story and the moment she realized she'd been MIA to her own kidsPost-traumatic growth and the heart behind Heather's Created to Move coaching practiceThe fastest way to daybreak and why it means running toward the night, not away from itBig T, little T, and chronic T trauma, and why you don't have to have a dramatic story to feel lostHow to love and support the Seven in your lifeHeather Berg is a trauma-informed Wholehearted Enneagram Coach and founder of Created to Move.

    Send us Fan Mail Wholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types | Type Seven | Episode 2 of 4 What happens when the Enneagram Seven's greatest superpower becomes the very thing keeping her from healing? In this episode, Amy Wicks moves from host to guest, sitting in the heartseat as her spiritual director and friend, Deanna Sudom, leads the conversation. It's one of the most personal episodes in the entire series. Amy shares how she finally recognized herself as a Seven, what she most wanted to avoid about it, and how her gift of reframing quietly became a form of spiritual bypassing, a way of rushing past pain that still needed tending. She talks about the year joy was her word, and how the Lord used it to form something far deeper and more rooted than she expected. About EMDR, grief, Dark Saturday, and the season, she sat in stillness for two to three hours at a time — not doing anything, just being held. If you're a Seven who has ever wondered what it costs to slow down (and what's waiting on the other side), this conversation is for you. In this episode: How Amy finally recognized herself as a Seven and why she quietly sat on it for a whileThe family member who made her not want to claim the typeReframing as a superpower and as a spiritual bypass, but learning the differenceThe year joy was her word, and what the Lord did with itWhat it actually felt like to slow down, grieve, and stayEMDR, Dark Saturday, and the U diagramAmy's season of stillness: waking early, sitting with an open Bible and a cup of coffee, being heldDeanna's reflection on five years of walking with Amy and what growth really looks likeA closing word to every Seven who has been told they're too muchDeanna Sudom is a spiritual director and co-teacher on the Wholehearted Enneagram Podcast.
