Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we’re diving deep into the Enneagram with our special guest, retired psychotherapist and Enneagram expert Marilyn Wolf! Together, we'll discover how and why the Enneagram is a powerful tool for self-awareness, ultimately helping you develop deeper connections and more fulfilling relationships!

We’ll start by exploring what the Enneagram is and why it stands out from other frameworks and systems like astrology or the Myers-Briggs. Marilyn will then walk us through the nine distinct Enneagram types, highlighting the unique characteristics, motivations, and frustrations of each one, sharing why it's our difference that present opportunities for growth and connection.

We’ll also touch on the concept of wings in the Enneagram, providing insight into how these adjacent types influence our core personality.

Whether you're new to the Enneagram or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode will equip you with the knowledge to navigate your relationships with greater awareness and intention.

I hope you'll join us for an engaging discussion that promises to enhance your self-discovery journey and interpersonal dynamics. Let's do this, flirties!

Bio: In 2020, Marilyn had a dream in which a man on the beach told her it was time to turn to the Enneagram to learn about herself. She dove in and has been involved ever since. Even though she has been teaching for many years, she still considers herself a student because, as she says, "The Enneagram is a bottomless well." 

Over the years, Marilyn has facilitated introductory and advanced workshops, weekend retreats, staff development programs, and has led many small group studies including one that has been meeting continuously since 2016. Her emphasis is always on using the Enneagram as a map for deeper self-awareness and more awakened living including greater compassion for self and others.
