After listening to this 2-Part series with  Mario Sikora, my Enneagram mentor, former International Enneagram Association President, and current Founder and CEO of Awareness to Action Enneagram, you'll have earned your credits in Enneagram History 101.
 
In Part 1 you'll hear the answers to and topics on:

• Where - and who - exactly did the Enneagram came from? 
• How old is the Enneagram (spoiler alert - it's not 2,000 years)? 
• Myths and misconceptions around the origin of the Enneagram 
• Why is it important to understand the approach you're learning from?
• The skipped Enneagram class that birthed the idea of Wings
• Why Mario doesn't teach Wings and what he recommends instead

Tune in next week for Part 2, diving into the evolution and the future of the Enneagram!
