The Sidekick Gets Her Moment | A MidSummer Enneagram Journey with the Other Bennet Sister
4w ago00:46:33Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThe Other Bennet Sister finally gives Jane Austen's most overlooked sister the story she's always deserved, and we're having far too much fun talking about it.In this special midsummer detour, Amy is joined by Payge Wicks and Annaliese Hinkin for a lively conversation about Mary Bennet's long-overdue redemption arc, the personalities behind the Bennet sisters, and, of course, our unofficial Enneagram typing of everyone from Mary to Mr. Hayward, Mr. Ryder, and females in the Bennett family.Together we explore what it means to move from the sidelines into your own story, why Mary has spent so long believing she was meant to be overlooked, and the beautiful moments that mark her journey toward confidence, agency, and belonging. Along the way, we debate the great romantic question...is it Team Hayward or Team Ryder?Whether you've recently read The Other Bennet Sister, watched the BritBox adaptation, or simply love a good character study, this episode is a joyful blend of literary discussion, personality insights, and a celebration of the quiet people who discover they were never meant to remain in the background.Because sometimes the most compelling hero isn't the loudest person in the room; it's the one who's finally learning to believe her own story matters.Amy LOVED the book and is having fun sharing it with her people... find a copy here.*Or stream on BritBox**These are affiliate links which help to support the podcast, but don't increase the cost for you!Support the showRESOURCES FOR YOU:Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wickshttps://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicksNot sure about your Enneagram Type?

The Enneagram Six and Faith | Church, Community & "All Shall Be Well" with Sarah Jackson
Jun 3000:35:19Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailWho can I trust? Is this community safe? Is this the leader they say they are?Wholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types | Type 6 | Episode 4 of 4These aren't just anxious questions for the Enneagram Six; they're the constant, exhausting background hum of how a Six moves through the world. And nowhere does that hum get louder than in the church.In this closing episode of Six month, Amy sits down with Sarah Jackson, licensed pastor, spiritual director, seminary graduate, and Type Six, for one of the most theologically rich conversations in the entire series. Sarah brings both her professional formation and her lived experience as a Six navigating church hurt, leadership dynamics, and the lifelong work of learning to trust God, community, and herself.She talks about the Six's defense mechanism of splitting, how it quietly applies to God himself, and what it means to hold nuance instead of constantly dividing the world into safe and unsafe, good and bad. She introduces the grief practice that quiets the inner committee when nothing else will. She draws on Julian of Norwich, "all shall be well" as the deepest expression of what a Six most longs to believe. And she offers one of the most practical spiritual tools in the series: the welcoming prayer.This is a beautiful close to a month that has asked a lot of the Six and offered even more in return.In this episode:Why the Six is one of the hardest types to self-identify, and why the Six resists hearing descriptions of herselfChurch hurt through a Six lens on how to differentiate the institution from the people in itThe Six's constant "vibe check" all in or deeply skeptical, with not much in betweenPerformance community vs. genuine community and why the distinction matters so much to a SixAnger as anxiety in disguise, what Sarah's husband sees when she's scaredGrief is the quieter of the inner committee and the most unexpected spiritual practice in the episodeSplitting as the Six's defense mechanism and how it applies to GodJulian of Norwich and the Six's deepest longing: "All shall be well"The welcoming prayer, a practical liturgy for releasing control and receiving loveMoses, as the Six's biblical hero, was scared but went in anywaySarah Jackson is a licensed pastor, spiritual director, and Enneagram practitioner serving with her husband who leads the Communion of Saints church in Colorado Springs.Connect with Sarah: https://threehere.com/ Support the showRESOURCES FOR YOU:Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wickshttps://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicksNot sure about your Enneagram Type?

6 or a 7? What I'm Learning About Self-Awareness at College | a conversation with Payge Wicks
Jun 200:35:07Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailWholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types Bonus Episode 6-7Two 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 stageSupport the showRESOURCES FOR YOU:Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wickshttps://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicksNot sure about your Enneagram Type?
