À propos de cet audio
What’s it like to talk with a Type 8? Passionate. Direct. Powerful. And sometimes, intense. In this episode, Kelly shares from her own experience as a Type 8—what works, what doesn't, and what eights most need from you in communication. Damon helps us see how that energy can feel to others, especially when it gets misunderstood. Whether you're an Eight, love one, or work with one, this conversation unpacks the heart behind the boldness and the vulnerability behind the strength.
Episode Highlights:
- Why directness is a strength—but also a challenge—for Type 8s
- Kelly shares how texting “OK” nearly caused a crisis
- The difference between being blunt vs. being clear
- What Eights really mean when their volume goes up
- How to hold space for a powerful personality without backing down
- Why protecting people and causes drives how Eights communicate
- How to gain trust and connection with a Type 8 (and what breaks it)
- Damon’s reminder: “Don’t match intensity—just be yourself.”
- What Eights want you to know but won’t always say out loud
