  • Introduction to the Enneagram

    Welcome back for Season Two! Today we’re starting a series on one of my favorite things: The Enneagram. This is a tool to grow in empathy and self-awareness. It will help you understand your core motivations and unlock so much more freedom and potential in your life.

    In today’s episode, I’ll introduce you to the system and get us all on the same page for the rest of the series. We’ll talk about the wings, the lines, and the social styles.  

    Follow along on Instagram @yougottatrythispodcast to see a diagram of the Enneagram, and for more Enneagram content throughout the series.

    Check out our Bookshop for recommended resources to go deeper.  

    If you’d like to take an Enneagram assessment (as a jumping off point for your self-discovery, not as the final word on your type!), here is a link to the RHETI assessment I mentioned.
