Summary

Today we are revisiting Ian's interview with celebrated Author, Speaker Bob Goff and his wife Maria. Bob is an Enneagram 7 and Maria is a 9.  And even though this episode provides a lot of insight into the worldview of a 7 and 9, the show today is really more about marriage and how two very distinct personality types can create a climate in which difference isn't merely tolerated, but rather is celebrated. 

Now, even if you're not married, you'll still love this episode because it paints a marvelous picture of how two very different Enneagram types, regardless of the kind of relationship they have forged, can come together to form a bond in which the two become more than the sum of their individual parts.  It's a great model. 

Be sure and check out Bob's newest book, Everybody, Always: Becoming Love in a World Full of Setbacks and Difficult People, and Maria's book, Love Lives Here.

Also, check out Dream Big Framework to learn about Bob's upcoming workshop.
