​About this MIDWEEK practice

​What drives someone to sign up for three new hobbies in one week or trade in their phone the moment a new one comes out with more bells and whistles? Welcome to the world of Enneagram Type Seven, also known as “The Enthusiast.” Type Sevens are fueled by a deep desire to experience joy, avoid pain, and keep their options open. But what’s really going on beneath the surface?

​In this MIDWEEK, we’ll take a closer look at the Enneagram Type Seven. You’ll learn what motivates this type, what they fear, and why their endless enthusiasm is both their greatest strength and their biggest challenge. We’ll explore the incredible strengths that make Type Sevens optimistic, creative, and visionary, as well as their struggles with staying grounded, facing discomfort, and following through when things get tough.

​Whether you’re a Type Seven yourself, love someone who is, or just want to better understand this unique personality type, this session will leave you with insights and tools to appreciate their perspective and support their journey. Come discover what makes Type Sevens tick.
