Why We Do What We Do: A Gentle Introduction to the Enneagram


Listen Later

Why do two people do the exact same thing for completely different reasons?
In this episode, I’m sharing one of the tools that has helped me better understand myself, my relationships, and even my work as an educator and mom: the Enneagram.

This isn’t just about personality. The Enneagram helps uncover the deeper motivations behind our behavior — why we respond the way we do, what drives us, and how those patterns show up in our relationships, parenting, teaching, and everyday life.

In this episode, I walk through:

  • what the Enneagram actually is
  • the 3 intelligence triads (doing, feeling, and thinking)
  • why motivation matters more than behavior
  • how understanding my own type has shaped the way I support students and navigate struggle

If you’ve ever wanted to understand yourself and others with a little more compassion and clarity, this episode is a great place to start.
