Strength, Softness and the Soul of the Enneagram 8 - The Challenger

In this episode of STILL YOU, we’re diving into the bold, intense, and secretly tender world of Enneagram Type 8 — The Challenger.If you’ve ever been called “too much,” “too direct,” or “intimidating,” this one’s for you. We’ll explore what drives the Type 8’s need for control, their incredible protective instincts, and the surprisingly soft heart underneath all that armor.We’ll laugh through the classic Eight behaviors (because… we’ve all been steamrolled by one), unpack their light and shadow sides, and explore their wings — the firecracker 8w7 and the gentle bear 8w9.Plus, we’ll talk practical growth practices that help Eights build trust, release control, and lead with love instead of fear.It’s part funny, part deep, and fully Type 8.Listen if you: Love a Type 8 (and are a little scared of them) Are a Type 8 who’s learning to soften Or just want to understand why your Eight friend can’t not lead every group projectSchedule a 1on1- Copy & paste link: https://calendly.com/bundy-katelynn/30minTiktok: @stillyoupodYouTube: @stillyoupodResources: The Wisdom of The Enneagram & Personality Types by Don Richard Riso, Russ Hudson
