EP185: Client Spotlight: Dr. Valerie Gettings—Unleashing the Visionary in the Multi-Passionate Enneagram 7

Enneagram 7s like Dr. Valerie Gettings have a gift for coming up with outside-the-box ideas. But if they feel disrespected or dismissed, these Enthusiastic Visionaries will stop sharing their innovative spirit.

They may even cut ties and move on.

So, what is the best way to support a 7 in sharing their vision? And how can 7s leverage an understanding of the Enneagram to take action on their best ideas?

Dr. Valerie had a successful career as a public affairs specialist and journalist for the US Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery before becoming a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine. Today, she is on a mission to help women with hormone imbalances restore their health and stay active through natural methods.

On this episode of The Leadership Formula, Dr. Valerie joins me to discuss how the Enneagram 7’s fear of being trapped makes them prone to shiny object syndrome and describe the self-destruction in her life when she was coming from an unhealthy place.

Dr. Valerie shares the two questions she asks to move from vision into execution, leaning on her wings to stay committed when she’s tempted to cut and run.

Listen in to understand how Dr. Valerie is integrating the Enneagram in her business and personal life and learn how to encourage the 7s you love and lead to share their visionary ideas with the world.
