Summary
You know your Enneagram number. But do you know what it's been quietly telling you about what you need in bed? Following the success of last week's Love Languages episode, Scott and Brittney go deeper with the framework that actually explains why you want what you want — not just what you want. The Enneagram goes beyond behavior into motivation, which makes it uniquely revealing when applied to intimacy. In Episode 32, they walk through all nine Enneagram types — what each one needs in intimate relationships, what they bring to a partner, where they get in their own way, what growth looks like for each type, and which Coelle session is built for exactly what they need. Then they share their own types and what they recognized about themselves and each other. If you and your partner have different numbers — this episode explains some things.
