Podcast appearances and mentions of leigh kramer

Today we are kicking off a summer series from the What Should I Read Next? archives: we're sharing the first episodes and sometimes the very first conversations Anne had with readers that are now members of our team. Many of you know our team members by name, and you have a good sense of their reading tastes, too. But we also know that many of you are new around here, or haven't yet had the chance to listen to all 400-plus episodes, so you don't know our team members as well.  Whether you've heard these episodes before or you're hearing them for the first time, we're certain you'll enjoy these introductions to some of the people who help make the book magic happen around here. The first episode in our team series originally aired as Episode 9 from all the way back in 2016 as Anne talks with now-Modern Mrs. Darcy editor and social media manager, Leigh Kramer. At that time, Leigh was living in San Francisco, where she identified herself as a full-time book nerd, fried pickle connoisseur, and lifetime White Sox fan. While Leigh lives in Chicago now, she still has strong opinions about her books, which makes for a delightful conversation.  In this episode, Leigh and Anne discuss the nearly perfect novel that she adored and happened to be all wrong for Anne. Leigh also shares the books she read at just the right time and a variety of very real bookworm problems, before Anne recommends titles for Leigh's next read. This episode was a really interesting time capsule because Leigh and Anne discuss some books that Leigh wouldn't choose and Anne wouldn't recommend for her today. We'll discuss those changes in her reading life more over on Patreon. Find the full list of titles mentioned today, along with links for other places you'll find Leigh and our team, over on our show notes page at whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/436.

Four romance reading friends embark on a romance history reading project, based on a BookRiot list, and in this episode, two of them — Leigh Kramer and Hannah Hearts romance — have Flames on the Sides of their Face when talking about the Flame and The Flower by Kathleen E. Woodiwiss. To keep things interesting, we talk less about the book itself and more about questions of reader reception and the relationship between the 1972 text and the romance texts that followed. Have we come a long way, baby, or are we still wallowing in the same whirlpool of sludgey emotions?--Shelf Love:NEW!

Romance novels have long been a source of collective societal derision: the over-the-top covers, the euphemisms, the punny titles. However, they're also a financial boon for publishing houses ... which means there's a *lot* of secretive reading happening out there. But why is it such a secret? Leigh Kramer joins us in the fourth chair for a fun debate about the merits of reading romance and offers recommendations for everyone from the easily embarrassed to the carnal connoisseur. We also play a lightning round of would you rather: two good things and talk about how we do (and don't do) condiments. View this episode's show notes here.

Meredith and Kaytee are back with SO many books my fingers are cramped (this is becoming a theme…). You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each of us: family presentation at homeschool group and going into a new book completely blind. Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. We’ve got five current reads this week, and they are sci-fi/fantasy heavy, which is WEIRD for us! Lots of strong opinions here! We’ve got an update for you on our Slow But Steady reads and what’s been happening in the past week. Also a short grammar lesson on “Swifties”. For our deep dive this week, we had a number of listeners (and real life friends) request our favorite parenting books. This will span everything from pregnancy/birth to infanthood to growing children to adding siblings. Plus one funny pick for when you just want to laugh it off. Finally, this week, we are Pressing Books into Your Hands. We’ve got books “with caveats” this week. So, stay tuned and listen closely to see if they are actually right for you!

We’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about the Enneagram recently, so I thought it was high time we devote part of an interview to explaining what it is and why it can make such a difference to understand. Truly, understanding the Enneagram has changed so much of my perspective on life and has improved my relationships, my compassion toward others, and has helped me to embrace the way that I am wired and see it as a gift, instead of something to be embarrassed about. My friend and virtual assistant, Leigh Kramer, is joining me to share more because she’s passionate about the Enneagram and she has helped me to process through what my number is and why it matters. Leigh will explain each of the nine Enneagram types, as well as how to figure out what yours is (and why taking online tests isn’t the best way) and how this knowledge can help you become a healthier person. In This Episode: [00:25] – I just got back home from helping out at a 7th and 8th grade camp in Kentucky… where I shared a cabin with 20 other girls/women and we had a cereal party, karaoke, and even glow-in-the-dark dodgeball. [03:37] – My kids have testing this week so they wanted me to make homemade energy bites. We love these so much! [05:06] – I have a confession to make: I didn’t read a single book last week. Can you believe it? But I share an app/site that’s been helping me stay more motivated to read (which might sound funny since I didn’t finish any books last week! But listen in for more details!) [09:08] – Ready for better mornings? Try my free 5 Days to a Better Morning Challenge! [09:56] – I’m excited to have Leigh Kramer joining me today for a conversation about the Enneagram! [12:47] – How did Leigh first discover the Enneagram system, and why is she so passionate about it? [14:57] – For listeners who are new to the Enneagram, Leigh explains more of the history of the Enneagram and what each of the nine types are. [18:35] – One of the things I love most about understanding the Enneagram is that it gives you a path to being more emotionally healthy as a person. [19:59] – What’s the best way to determine what enneagram type you are? Leigh talks about why online tests often give inaccurate results and what she recommends instead of taking a test. [23:16] – Leigh is one of the most voracious readers I know. She shares why she reads so much plus two books she’s finished and loved recently. She also shares something that’s saving her life right now: the perfect mugs! [28:04] – Ready for today’s Q&A segment? It’s all about setting goals, specifically whether Jesse also does monthly goals (like I do). [33:31] – If you need practical help with setting goals, check out our Make Over Your Year course.

Leigh Kramer is a former medical social worker, and the author of a brand new novel about life, love, and loss called A Storied Life. Today Anne digs deep with former social worker and current author Leigh Kramer to discuss a tough, nuanced topic: grief. From instructive texts, to descriptive fiction, to tales-of-caution, the bookshelf has a lot to say about this universal human emotion.This is a great conversation, but you should know that some of the books we discuss grapple with things like cancer, death, miscarriage, and other trauma. If these topics are triggering for you, or if you are currently recovering from a loss, please take care of yourself by listening with caution, or simply putting this episode aside for a later time.Connect with Leigh: Book | Blog | InstagramClick over to the podcast website for the full list of titles discussed in this episode, or to leave a comment letting Jen know what YOU think she should read next: http://whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/137

What can you learn about your internal motivations and drives from the Enneagram? We're kicking off a series on this fascinating personality theory. In this introductory episode we will explain what it is, and then talk through each type with writer and enneagram enthusiast Leigh Kramer. We're also joined by Christopher Heuertz, author of The Sacred Enneagram, who shares some of the history of the enneagram, it's spiritual origins and modern psychological iterations, and how our childhood fears and wounds shape our personality. It's a fascinating episode that we hope will inspire you to join us on this journey of exploration. To take the test to find out your own type, you can visit this site for a quick, free test, or buy the $12 Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator test at the Enneagram Institute for a more thorough assessment and explanation of your secondary types. (We recommend springing for the paid test.) Here are some books we talked about in this episode: The Wisdom of the Enneagram: The Complete Guide to Psychological and Spiritual Growth for the Nine Personality Types by Riso and Hudson The Complete Enneagram: 27 Paths to Greater Self-Knowledge by Beatrice Chestnut The Sacred Enneagram: Finding Your Unique Path to Spiritual Growth by Christopher L. Heuertz 

The long awaited Enneagram episode is here!!  We are thrilled to have Leigh Kramer on the show and she's going to walk us through an overview of The Enneagram and show you how you can use it to know yourself and others a little bit better.  Leigh is a writer and administrative assistant currently living in Minneapolis with a background in social work.  She also has passion for and expertise in the Enneagram and we are thrilled to have her on the show today! If Minimalism is all about spending your time and resources on the things you most value and letting the rest go, then this takes a lot of self knowledge.  This is where things like the Enneagram can really be helpful.  There are a lot of personality testing systems but we love the Enneagram because of it's flexibility and accuracy.  This episode is perfect for you if you love the Enneagram and want to gain a more in-debth understanding.  You'll also enjoy this episode if you are new to the Enneagram and want to see what all the fuss is about.  Either way, we hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed making it!  

This week, Leigh Kramer returns to the show to continue our Enneagram conversation! Leigh gave us an incredible introduction to the Enneagram system of understanding personalities back in episode 12 of Sorta Awesome. Today, she returns to answer your questions about wings, arrows, deciding on your type, and why we are attracted to certain types more than others! Make sure you've signed up for the show's newsletter to hear even more insights from Leigh in this week's edition: http://tinyletter.com/sortaawesome Find Leigh on her blog, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram!
