The unexamined life is not worth living”, Socrates tells us. This rings true both for the Big Concepts we’ve tackled on this podcast so far, and the invitation to know ourselves as we seek out meaning with those we love. In many ways, the pursuit of wisdom is as much about our inner world as it is about the outer world of ideas and beliefs. 

Many have dubbed Suzanne Stabile “The Enneagram Godmother”. She's been a student of this ancient system for over 30 years, which has made her an accomplished author and much sought-after speaker. Suzanne’s unique story-based teaching style radiates a desire to help people learn who they are so they can get out of their own way and love others better. 
In this episode, we invite Suzanne to share her wisdom about what comes on the other side of the theory itself.

John has had a massive impact on the language and concepts that we use on this show and we still can't quite believe that he was willing to chat with us. This is a conversation that we will not soon forget. 

We hope you get as much insight from it as we did.

We can talk about philosophy and religion forever (and we just might) but we also need to engage in other ways that aren't so exclusively intellectual. Lectio Divina is an ancient practice of reading a text in a meditative posture, allowing your intuition to guide you rather than approaching the text analytically. The result can be really impactful and meaningful and can reveal surprising insights. 

In this episode, Ryan brings a lovely poem from the Irish writer John O'Donohue. 

We hope some of you will try it along with us.

There is an old trope in theology that, “familiarity breeds unfamiliarity, and unfamiliarity breeds contempt”. For many of us who grew up Christian, the Bible has been presented in such sanitary ways that we miss the deep wisdom it contains in its patterns for us today. But perhaps there is still a way of entering into the scriptural world that orients to eternal truths, regardless of where we’re at in our belief system (or lack thereof).

In today’s episode, Landon leads us through a sacred reading of Philippians 4. After a time of contemplation, we share what this passage is speaking to each of us about gratitude, discipline, and attention.
