41. The Types of Grief No One Talks About with Grief Coach, Olivia Myles, Type 7

I never thought I'd see the words Grief Coach and Type 7 in a sentence together, so when Olivia Myles reached out and told me which type she most identifies with and what she did in her business, I had to hear more about her and her work.
On the Enneagram, Type Sevens are also called The Enthusiast, The Adventurer, and The Optimist.
They are known for their glass-is-half-full and rose-colored glasses outlook on life. They bring joy, fun, and energy to any room they walk into.
The reason behind a lot this is because deep down, Sevens are running from uncomfortable feelings. You'll find them busy in their business or out for an adventure because sitting still with their own thoughts and what might come up is too much to handle.
Their core defense mechanism is reframing so that even when painful or uncomfortable situations do occur, they retell themselves (and others) the story, but with a positive spin on it (#toxicpositivity)...
"Well, at least you didn't run over two dogs!"
"What are you complaining about? You could be in [fill in the blank with third world country] right now!"
"Don't be sad, there's so much else to look forward to!"
"They could have stolen double that!"
Like any type on the Enneagram, the more self-awareness and intentional personal growth a person pursues, the less like the stereotype they'll look and that's exactly what my guest today has done.
In this episode with Grief Recovery Coach, Olivia Myles, you'll hear:

her journey of loss and grief of a child
after years of living the same day over, how she learned to keep his memory alive without the pain
why the saying, "Time heals all wounds" is untrue and what you actually need to heal
the many other types of grief outside of loss of a loved one that most people are have experienced at some point in their lives
the unhealthy expectations our culture has created around grieving and what we should really be doing instead
how she uses her gifts of a Type 7 in her grief recovery work with clients

For anyone needing to process grief of any kind - a loss, a move, a career change, a relationship change, etc. Olivia hosts grief recovery groups and works with clients 1:1 to process in a healthy, healing way.
Learn more about her work and reach out with any questions about grief and how she can help you process and heal.

43. What's Your Orientation to Time? And How to Use It in Your Marketing, Leadership and Personal Growth

When a challenge comes up at work or home do you tend to:
A) reflect back on how things went the last time something like this came up, looking to the past to help you determine how to handle this situation ?
B) focus in on the problem right in front of you to determine what needs to be done right now, sometimes forgetting that you've overcome challenges like this in the past and that it will eventually sort itself out in the future?
C) look to quickly move through the challenge, even if it's not fully resolved, so that you can get to a goal or ideal situation in the future?
Depending how you process and react to these challenges most of the time (not every time), will give you clues into which orientation to time you're using in your relationships, your work, and even in your marketing strategies.
Listen it today Episode 43 to learn more about what Orientation to Time is, how to find out which one you are, and how it can help you grow and better understand your teams and your buyers.
