The Hard Truth About Making a Marriage Work |
Is love just an emotion, or is it a daily choice? In this clip, we break down why love is an action word and how different personality types handle conflict and growth in a relationship. It's easy to love someone when you wake up feeling great, but what happens when the "unicorn farts and rainbows" fade? We discuss the real, actionable side of love and dive into a classic Enneagram relationship dynamic. Watch as we explore what happens when an Enneagram 8 (the Challenger who wants to push and get things done) navigates life with an Enneagram 9 (the Peacemaker who tends to withdraw). Michael and his wife's dynamic perfectly illustrates how two entirely different approaches to conflict can actually help balance a relationship—teaching the 8 to find their softer side, and empowering the 9 to embrace action and boundaries.
