💫 Description
In this deeply honest and insight-filled conversation on The Shifted Podcast, Amira welcomes certified coach and founder of Ari Coaching, Danielle Smith, for a powerful discussion on midlife transition, identity, and the transformative clarity the Enneagram can bring.
Danielle shares how her own midlife questioning led her into coaching, and why so many women hit a point where long-held roles—achiever, caregiver, peacekeeper—begin to feel too tight. Together, they explore how the Enneagram helps uncover the motivations beneath our behaviors, the stories we’ve carried since childhood, and the patterns that once kept us safe but now hold us back.
