Types of Enneagrams
Hello E&K fam! As the last blog said, I will be blogging about enneagrams today. Enneagrams amaze me so much, it is kinda crazy how true they are and how they are like your personality. I have done a lot of research the past month about how they fit you and all the types.
Here are a list and short description of what enneagrams are and how you can figure out yours.
What is an enneagram?
The enneagram is a personality system that aims to reveal emotion, how we engage with others, and what we need and want from other people engaging in our life. There are nine personality types each with a set of strengths and weaknesses. Also opportunity along with growth.
Enneagram types?
Type One: The Perfectionist, ones place a lot of emphasis on following rules and doing things correctly.
Type Two: The Giver, twos want to be liked and find ways to be helpful to others and their community, they seek to love and help people around them.
Type Three: The Achiever. Threes want to be successful and admired by other people and are ver conscious of their public image.
Type Four: The individualist. Fours want to be unique and live authentically, they are highly attuned to their emotional experience.
Type Five: The investigator. Fives seek understanding and knowledge and are more comfortable with data than people.
Type Six: The Skeptic. Sixes are preoccupied with security, seek safety, and like to be prepared for problems.
Type Seven: The Enthusiast. Sevens want to have as much fun on adventures as possible and are easily bored.
Type Eight: The Challenger. Eights see themselves as strong and powerful and seek to stand up for what they believe in.
Type Nine: The Peacemaker. Nines like to keep a low profile and let people around them set the agenda.
Now that you have a quick rundown of what types there are, now you can probably see what type you are if you are struggling to figure it out there are so many tests out there to help you!

My current obsessions
my favorites :)
Hello hello hello everyone, I am so happy to be uploading another blog post! Thank you for all the love in the last two posts, so thankful! Today is going to be all about my favorite current obsessions, I have so many and am so excited to share. I have three main categories, food, fashion and accessories, and a random category. If you would like to share your current obsessions with me check out @eunoiaandknown on Instagram and click the story icon, I would love to see if we have obsessions in common.
Food
✰ my go-to snacks: extra cheddar goldfish and chocolate covered pretzels
✰ a meal I have been loving is: taco lasagna it is so easy and fast
✰ lastly, two drinks I have been loving is strawberry and raspberry lemonade and of course smoothies. My personal favorite is strawberry and banana with V8 juice.
Fashion and Accessories
✰ some crazy stuff but if you have not shopped at Walmart go there!! There are so many cute things for affordable prices, I have been shopping there for about two years now. Another place that is super affordable is Plato’s Closet which is amazing for thrifting and getting high-end brands for cheap (who doesn’t love a good bargain?!)
✰ clothing brands I love from these two places I mentioned are time and tru from Walmart and no boundaries have some super cute clothing options and time and tru also has accessories and shoe options that are so adorable and I have gotten so many pieces from both of these collections! If you go be sure to look at hair accessories along with the jewelry. From Plato’s Closet, I have loved just seeing what brands are there, one of the most common brands I see are Free People and American Eagle. These are of course such cute brands which are normally so expensive although here you can get them for very cheap!
✰ One main piece of jewelry I have been loving lately is a gold dotted choker, it is so cute and was also very affordable. I have gotten so many compliments on it. It was from Amazon for $11.99!!
✰ I am only 15 and don’t carry a purse super often but when I do I always carry a backpack normally! I use a Myra cowhide backpack, it holds so much and looks cute with just about any outfit. It is more pricey but I think it is definitely worth it for how cute it is… sometimes you just have to splurge.:) Anyways this bag is available on amazon or similar ones from the same brand, they have sling purses and normal size bags as well.
Other
✰ one scent I have been loving lately is ‘volcano’ I just recently got a candle on major sale and it was this scent. As soon as I smelt it I fell in love and knew I had to get it! I got my candle from a store called Francesscas, but if you don’t live near one of those stores I just saw amazon carries the candle along with hand cream and diffuser oil. I will most definitely be purchasing those as well.
✰ I am always so interested in what apps people love so I thought I would share mine as well. So some of my favorite apps consist of Pinterest and Tik Tok. If you are ever bored download these two apps and they are very time consuming but very entertaining! I have had Pinterest for many years now and over the years I have created many boards about my hobbies, home decor, hairstyles, lifestyle and so much more if you would like to see my boards my username is- reeseannrowland. Be sure to send me a message on there and I will follow you:)
✰ Last but not least how could I have a random obsession without amazon being in it, haha! My favorite have been hanging plants! I love the look and style these add to any room, it brings in so much abstract and boho feel into your room. Amazon has so many different options and styles!
Thank you so much for reading!
Always remember wherever you are planted to bloom with grace.
much love, Reese :)
How to stay happy:)
I often get questions about my happiness and how I stay positive and honestly it comes naturally to me because I always try and have a positive outlook on ideas, conversations, and my life. It’s hard to explain the ways but, we all have our days where we do get sad, and lonely and that is okay you're going to have those and that is okay.
It is more of how you deal with that, how you handle sadness, and how you don’t let the sadness control more than one day. It might be hard but just know that the Lord is always with you every step of the way.
Some of my coping mechanisms I use include
-taking time to pray
-going outside to listen to worship music outside
-hanging out with the people you love
-organizing a dirty space
-taking a relaxing bath
-journaling your thoughts
-cook something yummy
-working out
There are so many other ways to handle this although these are some of mine, if you have more I’d love to know so shoot me an email:)
This is short and simple but be sure to look out for another blog post coming soon:)
I hope you have a great day, always remember that you are amazing and God loves you:)
Wherever life plants you bloom with grace;)
