Summary

We did it! We took a personality test and we are sharing it all in today’s episode. We have been seeing a lot of educators discuss their Enneagram online and we thought it would be fun to take an enneagram ourselves and discuss what it means for our productivity as teachers. An Enneagram personality tests describes personality in terms of nine types, each driven by their own set of core emotions, fears, and beliefs. The free test which can be found here takes about 10-15 minutes to complete and asks you a series of 105 questions in which you place your response on to a scale of least to greatest. This was Bridget’s first time taking the test and Michelle’s second time. Listen in as we discuss our Enneagram types and whether or not we agree with the results.

0:12.5	Guys, today's episode is going to be a fun one. Michelle and I recently took the Enneagram personality test, but we haven't shared our results. And I'm going to have
0:22.8	to try to contain my laughter throughout the entire thing, because it's funny, just my results
0:27.6	overall. So in this episode, we're going to be revealing our results to one another and all of you.
0:33.2	And we are basically just going to discuss the similarities and the differences and how they relate to our
0:39.4	productivity as teachers. And when we say we recently took a personality test, we mean like 10 minutes
0:45.2	before we recorded this because we both forgot that we were supposed to do this episode.
0:50.3	Thankfully, Bridget texted me. And she's like, hey, just so you know, we're supposed to take
0:53.5	that Enegram personality test. But it's all good. We're both done and ready to share the results.
0:58.9	But first, let's hear a TSAH from Stacy. Stacey says her time-sucking hurdle is having access to the

1:11.6	plans, email, digital assignments, etc. I create digital resources, assignments, lesson plan,
1:17.6	and grade on the weekends. I mean, who doesn't? It's all too tempting to take a quick break
1:22.5	to do a little online shopping, but five minutes can easily become 20 minutes and costly. Not to mention, I then
1:29.7	start measuring all the rooms in my house and budget a remodel in the process. I try to stay
1:35.1	focused and sometimes I'm successful, but other times the internet wins. Is retail therapy

1:49.0	I am definitely that person that gets stucked into the Instagram ads.

1:56.0	I'm looking at all the reviews.
