Marriage Goals for Busy Couples: Staying Flexible Without Losing Standards with Colton Simmons, Type 1w9 (1-3 Marriage)
Manage episode 519021999 series 2739435
How do busy couples maintain marriage goals without becoming rigid? Christa sits down with Colton Simmons, 1w9, creator of the popular You've Got a Type YouTube channel and podcast, to explore staying flexible without losing standards. As a Type 1w9 married to a Type 3w4, Colton shares practical insights about his own 1-3 pairing dynamics, navigating the tension between "doing it right" and "getting it done efficiently," managing extreme productivity without burnout, and thriving as a high-achiever couple who are also navigating parenthood. They discuss how both partners can be driven without perfectionism killing connection, and Colton also shares about his creative but also uniquely-paced process for thorough Enneagram content (including typing Lord of the Rings characters) and his current series on each type in relationships. The conversation explores teaching without becoming rigid and also learning how many type 1s inner critics really work from the inside out as Colton so graciously and vulnerably shares. Whether you're a busy couple trying to balance goals and flexibility in a high-achiever pairing, wants to find your own balanced rhythm for creating content or teaching or leading others, (or just love deep Enneagram work), this episode offers you an interesting dive!
