Hi friends, welcome to another episode of That Sounds Fun. I'm your host, Annie F. Douth. I'm so happy to be with you today. It's one of my favorite times of year here at That Sounds Fun.

Today we're kicking off our special series called Anya Summer 2021. The Anya Gram is a tool that we love around here that helps us to know ourselves better and love our people better.

It is just a tool, one of the many that can help with personal growth, but one that we find really interesting and helpful.

So if you're newer around here and haven't listened to any of summer before, we're going to spend the next few weeks hearing from a male and a female who identify as each of the types one through nine.

These are my friends or friends of friends who are just normal people who've taken time and done the work to understand themselves and use the Anya Gram as a resource to help them with that.

This is our third summer talking about the Anya Gram. So you can go back and listen to Anya Summer 2019 and Anya Summer 2020. But we're doing something a little different during Anya Summer 2021.

We're focusing in on where each type goes in stress and where they go in security. I am learning so much you guys from our friends that are on these shows and all these conversations.

I know you're going to learn a lot as well and I have a little surprise for you that any summer 2021 episodes will show up in your podcast app wherever you love to listen on Mondays and Fridays.

And you're going to hear a regular episode on Wednesdays. That's right friends. That sounds fun is going to three days a week.

Q the confetti cannons. Let's go Monday Wednesday and Friday. So again, that's any summer shows on Mondays and Fridays this month and a regular episode with a guest that we love on Wednesdays.

So today on the show we are kicking off our Anya Summer series with an expert. We do this every year. And this year it is Anya Gram coach, Haley Watkins. Now listen, she is one of my best friends on this planet. We've been friends our whole lives.

She's also an Anya Gram coach and I think you're really going to enjoy and learn from her perspectives. She's going to give us an introduction into our Anya Summer series, especially talking about where each number goes in stress and where each number goes in security.

You guys are going to love this conversation. So get ready. Anya summer 2021 starts right now with Anya Gram coach, Haley Watkins.

Haley Watkins, Anya Gram coach. Welcome to that sounds fun. Thank you. I guess welcome back to that sounds fun. I'm returning guests. You're returning guests. You've already done this and Christmas party.

No, 12 days of Christmas 2019. Yes, you have had friends. So it was easier.

And like come moderate. And what does that make me in this story, Haley? What does that make me?

You're like in charge like that. We it was like us who are uncomfortable and you who are comfortable. What the world needs to know. Number one, will you back up and tell a little bit about your Anya Gram coaching experience?

Like what do you do? What do you love to do? How do you get trained? Like kind of tell us who you are in the Anya Gram coaching world?

Yes. So I have been deep in Anya Gram for about four years. I was introduced to it by you. I think I got. I think I got interested in it. I remember us eating at Tokyo.

Tokyo tsunami. Yes, you talking about it. And I remember thinking, dang, I wish I knew that much about myself. Like you like we're learning about yourself. I think watching you grow really got me interested.

And then the first I took a test did not test correctly. And then but the first time I heard the nine described it was like somebody's in my head. Wow.

And especially Nines, because we don't think about what's going on inside very often. I think Nines kind of can go deep pretty quickly because we're like, what is this?
