That Sounds Fun with Annie F. Downs

Y'all aren't even ready for the high level of awesome our #EnneaSummer2020 Enneagram 3s bring today. Confident but humble, kind and thoughtful, Candice and Taylor are genuinely two of the best. I've watched them up close for years- as they have led and served- and I can promise you these are two friends you want in your corner. Grateful for their thoughts, grateful for their honesty, and grateful for all the ways that represent the heart and mind of 3s.. . . . .Listen to : EnneaSummer2019: ThreesMusic from Ryan O'Neal : http://www.sleepingatlast.comExpert words from Seth Abram : http://instagram.com/integratedenneagramOur hashtags :#EnneaSummer2020#thatsoundsfunpodcast ... join in the conversation wherever hashtags are welcome. :). . . . .We also have koozies for each number over at shopanniefdowns.com.

Today's conversation with the Enneagram Ones absolutely blew my mind. I learned so much from Sarah and Dan and I just absolutely loved that they both showed up with the questions answered on a piece of paper, printed out, ready to go. Ones are just the best- bringing their truth and heart. Whether you are a one or if you love a one, this show will be so helpful. . . . .Listen to : EnneaSummer2019: OnesMusic from Ryan O'Neal : http://www.sleepingatlast.comExpert words from Seth Abram : http://instagram.com/integratedenneagramOur hashtags :#EnneaSummer2020#thatsoundsfunpodcast ... join in the conversation wherever hashtags are welcome. :). . . . .We also have koozies for each number over at shopanniefdowns.com.
