1 September 2026, 6:00 am - 47 minutes 56 secondsEnneagram at Work with Megan from A Field Middleburg
In this episode of Enneagram at Work, Joel and Jim talk with Megan Burton, owner-partner of A Field Middleburg, about how understanding her Enneagram type and instinctual stack has shaped the way she leads and builds a business.
Megan shares how identifying as a Type 8 with a Hunter-Farmer-Teamer stack helped her better understand her intensity, need for autonomy, leadership style, and the kinds of people she needs around her as the company grows. The conversation also explores communication with employees, working alongside a Type One business partner, recognizing what is underneath our reactions at work, and building a company around people’s natural strengths.
They also get into Megan’s philosophy around clothing, identity, sustainability, and buying fewer, better things.

25 August 2026, 6:00 am - 36 minutes 20 secondsEnneagram at Work with Halie from Wellspring Counseling
In this episode of Enneagram at Work, Joel and Jim talk with Halie Howells, owner of Wellspring Center for Counseling, about how the Enneagram has shaped her growth as both a therapist and a business leader. Halie leads a growing counseling practice with more than 30 therapists across multiple locations.
As an Enneagram 2, Halie shares the challenge of moving from being everyone's helper and cheerleader to actually taking up the role of boss—setting clear expectations, having difficult conversations, and learning that caring for people doesn't mean doing everything for them.
The conversation explores how self-awareness has helped Halie personalize the way she leads different people, build a healthier team culture, receive difficult feedback, and recognize when her own patterns could become a bottleneck for the business. She also talks about why growth has to begin with the leader: as we become more aware of ourselves, we create more room for the people around us to bring their own strengths to the table.
