Derailers (the things that can get us off track) can be some of the most challenging aspects of our personality patterns to confront.For Type 7s, growth often starts with the willingness to stay — to stay with the hard thing, the boring thing, or the uncomfortable emotion, rather than jumping to the next exciting idea or distraction.Sevens are known for their energy, optimism, and visionary thinking. They bring lightness to heavy moments and possibility to stuck places. But when that drive to avoid pain or limitation takes over, it can become a subtle (or not-so-subtle) barrier to real progress — especially in work environments that require follow-through, emotional depth, or patience.These derailers represent common challenges for Sevens. While they may not apply to every individual Seven or all the time, they reflect general tendencies that can show up when things feel too slow, too serious, or too emotionally vulnerable.If you're still narrowing down your dominant Enneagram type, a few of these tendencies might help guide your reflection.If you already identify as a Type 7, what helps you get back on track when you find yourself avoiding discomfort, resisting structure, or losing steam halfway through a project? Share your tips — they might be just what another Seven needs to hear.Have a request for a future episode? Drop a text here!

Derailers (the things that can get us off track) can be some of the most challenging aspects of our personality patterns to confront.For Type 4s, growth often starts with the realization that your depth, creativity, and emotional insight — the very qualities that make you so uniquely powerful — can also become obstacles when left unchecked.It's not always about changing who you are, but rather noticing how your patterns show up at work. Do you find yourself withdrawing when you feel misunderstood? Comparing yourself to others? Getting stuck in what's missing?Real progress comes not from becoming someone different, but from learning how to navigate the emotional waves without letting them steer the ship.These derailers represent common challenges for Fours. While they may not apply to every individual Four or apply all the time, they reflect general tendencies that can arise when we're feeling emotionally off-center or disconnected from purpose.As a Type 4 herself, Coach Brenda Brown co-hosts this episode to share her real-world experience with each of the derailers. If you're still discovering your dominant Enneagram type, noticing a few of these might help guide your exploration.If you already identify as a Type 4, what helps you get back on track when you're feeling unmotivated, unseen, or stuck in comparison mode? Your insights might be just what another Four needs to hear.Source: Awareness to Action Enneagram Have a request for a future episode? Drop a text here!

Derailers (the things that can get us off track) can be some of the most challenging aspects of our personality patterns to confront.For Type 5s, growth isn't about having all the answers — it's about learning to step out of your head and into the moment, even when it feels uncertain or emotionally demanding.Your ability to observe, analyze, and think deeply is a major strength. But when those gifts become a way to disconnect or protect your energy at all costs, they can quietly hold you back at work — especially in environments that call for collaboration, visibility, or emotional presence.These derailers represent common challenges for Fives. While they may not apply to every individual Five or apply all the time, they reflect general tendencies that can surface when you feel overwhelmed, under-resourced, or overly self-reliant.If you're still figuring out your dominant Enneagram type, noticing a few of these patterns may offer some helpful clues.If you already identify as a Type 5, what helps you get back on track when you find yourself withdrawing, overthinking, or disconnecting from the team?

Derailers (the things that can get us off track) can be some of the most challenging aspects of our personality patterns to confront.For Type 6s, growth often means learning to trust — not just other people, but also yourself. Your thoughtfulness, loyalty, and ability to anticipate problems make you an incredible asset on any team. But when those strengths get tangled up in fear or worst-case-scenario thinking, they can start to work against you.Derailers for Type 6s often show up as overthinking, second-guessing, or struggling to move forward without full certainty or reassurance. And while those patterns may feel protective, they can quietly erode confidence, momentum, and trust — both in yourself and in your team.These derailers represent common challenges for Sixes. While they may not apply to every individual Six or all the time, they reflect general tendencies that can emerge under pressure, stress, or uncertainty.If you're still figuring out your dominant Enneagram type, seeing some of these patterns in yourself might offer helpful insight.If you already identify as a Type 6, what helps you get back on track when fear, doubt, or overanalysis start taking the wheel?

The Enneagram isn't a crystal ball, but no personality assessment is.We recently came across an article titled “Why You Shouldn't Always Trust Personality Tests,” and it hit a nerve—in the best way.In this quick episode, we unpack why the Enneagram isn't a tool for making predictions (especially not in hiring or promotion decisions), and how it's much more useful as a problem-solving and growth-guiding framework.It's not about labeling people. It's about understanding what's underneath the behavior so we can lead and collaborate better."The Enneagram doesn't tell you what will happen—it helps you understand why something did happen."--> Psychology Today Article: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/clearer-thinking-today/202504/why-you-shouldnt-always-trust-personality-testsHave a request for a future episode?

Derailers (the things that can get us off track) can be some of the most challenging aspects of our personality patterns to confront.It's easy to admire the drive, efficiency, and results-oriented mindset of a Type 3. But growth for Threes often isn't about achieving more — it's about slowing down long enough to notice why they're pushing so hard in the first place.Real growth doesn't always come from doing. Sometimes it comes from being honest about the patterns that are quietly running the show underneath our successes — the ones that can lead to burnout, disconnection, or chasing validation over authenticity.These derailers represent common obstacles for Threes. While they may not apply to every individual Three or apply all the time, they reflect general tendencies that can surface when we're out of alignment with our core values or worth.If you're still figuring out your dominant Enneagram type, seeing a few of these patterns in yourself might help narrow things down.If you already identify as a Type 3, is there anything you'd add to the “getting back on track” section?

It's often easier to talk about the strengths and generosity of a Type 2 — their rapport-building, willingness to help out when needed, and desire to support and develop others. But personal and professional growth for a Two doesn't always mean doing more of that. Sometimes it means recognizing when those same strengths might be working against you.Our growth path is often less about adding and more about uncovering — removing what's in the way of becoming the most effective, balanced version of ourselves.For Type 2s, this means reflecting on the recurring patterns that may stem from their core desire to be liked, needed, or appreciated — and how those patterns can unintentionally derail them at work.These derailers represent common obstacles for Twos. While they may not apply to every individual Two or show up all the time, they reflect general tendencies that can surface under stress or when we're not fully aware of our patterns.If you're still figuring out your dominant Enneagram type, noticing a few of these in yourself might help bring some clarity.If you already identify as a Type 2, is there anything you'd add to the “getting back on track” section? What helps you reset and reconnect with your healthiest self when you feel yourself slipping into people-pleasing, overextending, or resentment?Have a request for a future episode? Drop a text here!

Derailers (the things that can get us off track) can be some of the most challenging aspects of our personality patterns to confront.It's easier to share the strengths and skills of each Type, but most of the time our path for growth isn't about getting better at something. It's more about removing what's in the way of where we are now so we can get to where we want to go.Taking an honest look and reflecting on where some of our recurring challenges are isn't easy. But it can be incredibly helpful in our personal growth and in our professional development.These derailers represent common obstacles for Ones. While they may not apply to every individual One or apply all the time, they reflect general tendencies that can arise for this Type.If you're still working to uncover your dominant Enneagram type, seeing a few of these in yourself may help you narrow it down.If you already identify as a Type 1 is there anything you'd add to the "getting back on track" section that's been helpful for you?Have a request for a future episode?

Episode Summary:  In this episode of For Love & Money, Carolyn Butler-Madden is joined by Chris Hudson, Founder & CEO of Company Road, to explore how his own personal purpose has driven his work in catalysing organisational change. Chris shares his journey from childhood to the Ad Agency world, through corporate marketing to entrepreneurship—driven by curiosity and a deep desire to challenge the status quo. They discuss how leaders can embed purpose into their work, create meaningful cultural transformation, and reimagine traditional business models through curiosity, storytelling, and innovation. This conversation unpacks the emotional and strategic aspects of change-making, exploring how work can become more than a means to an end and instead a space for experimentation, personal fulfilment, and systemic impact. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Discover how Chris Hudson's personal purpose inspires him to drive business transformation, challenge leadership norms, and create innovative workplaces. How personal purpose can lead your work choices and inspire new business ventures. Why curiosity and questioning assumptions are essential for both innovation and leadership. The concept of 'intrapreneurship' and how employees can drive change within organisations. How designing customer experiences can be an experience itself. The parallels between performance in music, art, and leadership at work. How work environments can be stretched beyond conventional structures to foster engagement, creativity, and impact. The need to challenge traditional leadership archetypes and embrace humility in leadership. Why leaders must deeply understand their teams to create productive and fulfilling workplaces. Key Themes Discussed: Curiosity as a Leadership Skill: Chris reflects on how his innate curiosity has inspired his career path and his belief that curiosity is a critical tool for fostering change. Intrapreneurs as Rebels: Chris highlights how intrapreneurs are the 'rebels' of an organisation, pushing against the norm to drive meaningful change from within. Work as an Expansive Concept: The conversation explores how traditional work structures can be stretched and reimagined to create environments that promote innovation, fulfillment, and purpose. The Experience of Designing an Experience: Chris discusses how designing a customer experience can be an enriching experience for the people creating it, not just the end users. The Art of Leadership as Performance: Using music and art as an analogy, Chris draws parallels between great performances and the leadership required to create an engaging work culture. Challenging the Alpha Leadership Model: Chris calls for a shift away from the traditional dominant leadership style, advocating instead for consultative and humble leadership that fosters collaboration. Understanding People to Drive Productivity: Leaders need to invest time in truly understanding their teams to create a work environment that is both high-performing and human-centered.

Now, with leadership roles at RAKBANK, FinMir.ai, and beyond, he's proving that the real flight plan for success is innovation.Key Highlights of Our Interview:The Foreigner's Lens“Being an outsider brings a unique perspective—an untainted view of industries and cultures. It's about seeing things differently, learning from fresh angles, and questioning the norms others might take for granted.”“Being an outsider has its perks and pitfalls. It offers clarity but also means navigating unfamiliar landscapes. The key is turning the so-called disadvantage of not ‘belonging' into a powerful tool for change.”Immigrant Wisdom - The Dual Edge“Living as an immigrant since my twenties taught me resilience and adaptability. You're always learning, always adjusting, and that shapes how you approach leadership and problem-solving.”From Fear to Understanding“People don't resist change because they don't want it. They resist because they don't understand it. The journey is about removing fear by turning a ‘no' into a ‘know'—helping them see the benefits and feel confident about the new direction.”The Advantage of Experience - Ask the Right Questions“In the generative AI era, older employees often have an edge—they know how to ask better questions. This ability to craft meaningful queries is a huge advantage, especially when navigating tools that rely on prompt engineering.”“While younger employees might excel in technical adaptability, seasoned professionals bring a different kind of skill: the wisdom to ask the right questions.

We've all been there—a group project where one person (possibly a Type 3) takes over like they're leading a Fortune 500 company while another (let's say a Type 9) quietly disappears into the background.So, why does this happen? And more importantly, how do we fix it?In this episode of Enneagram at Work, we're breaking down:Why Type 3s naturally take charge (and sometimes overdo it)Why Type 9s drift into the role of silent supporter (or fully check out)How this dynamic can lead to burnout for Type 3 & disengagement for Type 9Simple fixes to create balance, clear roles, and actual teamworkHow to make sure Type 3 doesn't ‘redo' everyone's work & Type 9 doesn't fade into oblivionIf you're a Type 3, this episode will help you lead without steamrolling. If you're a Type 9, this will help you stay engaged without feeling overwhelmed. If you're neither but manage people, this will help you better understand and address challenging group project dynamics. Have a request for a future episode? Drop a text here!

This week, on Today In Space...our first 'Tech Talk' about AI & Business (with some aspirational takes on the role of AI in Humanity's future on Earth and in Space). Our guest David Hirschfeld, CEO of Tekyz, shares the knowledge of his 35-year career in software, including his origin story founding a vending machine software company that grew to 800 customers in 22 countries! We discuss business and AI; including Tekyz's take on the importance of product-market fit and early customer engagement given that "95-98%" of startups fail. David introduced "Launch First," a strategy for pre-launch sales to validate market demand, sharing success stories of securing $70,000 in 60 days for a real estate product and $250,000 for clinical trial software. Long story short - David was a wealth of knowledge and practical expertise, and we talked about almost anything and everything tech, AI, and even philosophy and business along with some laughs! With the way 2025 is shaping up, AI and technology will continue to make a difference in our lives. Our goal is to dive-in head first, try to understand the unknown and talk to experts along the way and share it with you. Our goal is to face our fear of the unknow and try to understand the magic behind it, using the scientific mindset as our guide. If AI's promise of impact is anywhere close to humanity discovering fire, then every little bit of understanding we have will help us make a better future for the world tomorrow. While we definitely recommend you do your homework, all you need to do is get comfortable, get ready to listen, and dive in with us. Alex shares some of his thoughts and concerns about AI, and the two have a great debate of ideas and topics, some of which include: The Value-Add for AI and how it can help you Concerns about AI and Corruption The Quality of data used to train AI models The Energy consumption of AI at scale  The future of AI in Space Travel Examples of real life applications of AI to make life better for individuals and businesses We thank David for joining us and being such a great guest! We look forward to checking in with him in the future and see if any of his predictions were spot on.

The discussion revolves around the relationship between empathy and people-pleasing, emphasizing the importance of maintaining healthy boundaries and self-awareness to avoid falling into the trap of prioritizing others over oneself. The host explores how people-pleasing behaviors can stem from past experiences, such as childhood conditioning or societal influences, but stress the need to assess whether these behaviors still serve a positive purpose in one's life. The podcast highlights the detrimental effects of excessive people-pleasing on one's sense of self-worth, authenticity, and mental well-being. It discusses common myths held by people-pleasers and the misconceptions surrounding the belief that pleasing everyone guarantees approval and acceptance. The conversation emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, learning to set boundaries, practicing self-love, embracing authenticity, and prioritizing one's own needs without guilt to break free from people-pleasing tendencies. The episode addresses how people-pleasing behaviors can contribute to feelings of anxiety, stress, and overwhelm by constantly prioritizing others' needs over one's own. It explains how the fear of disappointing others or being judged negatively can perpetuate a cycle of anxiety and overthinking, leading to burnout and feelings of inadequacy. The host offers practical strategies for managing stress associated with people-pleasing, such as cultivating self-awareness, practicing assertiveness, and nurturing self-compassion.
