How to call a spade a spade (and actually move forward) |
Do you have a built-in radar for fake people? Let's talk about sniffing out inauthenticity and moving forward. ππ§
If you have any Enneagram 8 in your personality, you know the absolute intolerance for inauthenticity. We have to call a spade a spade and address the elephant in the room.
But we can't just get stuck pointing out the problem. As we discuss in this clip, the goal is figuring out how to heal, live with it, and actually enjoy each other again. Sometimes, our biggest superpower is sniffing out the BS instantly, but having the patience to just sit back, let the situation play out, and quietly enjoy the pride of knowing we were right all along.
