Did you know each enneagram type has a unique pattern of child-parent relationships?

In this episode, I'll cover the general patterns each type follows in regards to how they related to their maternal & paternal figures as children. Please note: I'll discuss these patters in broad terms of health and disfunction. If I say something like "Type 1s felt disconnected from their fathers" please do not take that to mean your father was a bad person or that you and your father did/do not have a healthy relationship today. All that to say, take whatever is hard to hear as a sign post pointing you towards something to examine more after the video. These parent-child relationships create patterns & perspectives we'll carry with us our entire life.

Each enneagram type tends to experience a unique childhood pattern. In the second part of this two-part series, I'll describe what Types 6-9 tend to experience when they're children and how that shapes their present day personalities.

As your host, Colton Simmons, I'd like to give you a brief introduction to the show, to myself, and give you a wee bit of a disclaimer before the Enneagram takes us on a rather...intense journey towards self-awareness, and eventually, self-acceptance. 

Ready?

Let's get into it!

If you've stumbled onto this podcast, then chances are you've heard about the Enneagram as a personality assessment. 

Well, truth be told, the Enneagram isn't actually focused on your personality.

So before we dive into the deep end of the enneagram pool, let's clarify what the Enneagram actually is in this brief episode. 

There are three names you'll hear over and over again when it comes to the question of "Who created the enneagram?"

But I'd like to introduce a fourth name...the often forgotten, overlooked, or disputed founder of the Enneagram. 

Ready to find out who I'm talking about?

Let's get into it!

There are several key terms you need to know before diving into the actual Enneagram personality types themselves.

In this episode, I'll briefly cover: 

• Instincts

Don't let the dense terminology fool you! These concepts are extremely easy to grasp and are essential for understanding the ways in which each Type functions.

Alright, here's your fly over view of the 9 Enneagram Personality Types. 

It's a mix of dense Enneagram terminology, and total fluff. But if you're curious about any of these topics, then get ready for a doozy of an episode. 

I'll cover each enneagram type's:

• Core Desire

Whew...you ready? Let's get into it!

The Enneagram, much like Red Bull, gives you wiiiings.

Your wing is a key component of your personality type, and it may be the reason why you feel so different than your friends that say they're the same type as you...
