My inbox is regularly filled with Enneagram questions.⁣

These questions are about everything from good Enneagram combinations to how the Enneagram relates to business, sales, marketing, parenting, relationships, friendships, and more.⁣

Listen now⁣


So today, we’re going to answer all your questions!⁣

Remember: the Enneagram isn't complicated but it is very complex. So I’m here to answer your questions and help you integrate what you learn.⁣

Question #1: Are there certain Enneagram types that are a terrible mix?⁣

The quick answer is no: the healthiest version of each type works well with any other type. Because the more self aware you are, the more compassion you have for yourself and others. That being said, there are pairings that flow better than others.⁣

Question #2: Are there certain Enneagram types that are better for certain professions?⁣

I believe that any type can do anything when they’re at their best and in their growth number. While you can play to the strengths of your own number, you can also push yourself to grow into the strengths of your growth number. ⁣
