Quote:

“The Enneagram is a personality typing system. It's a tool. Nothing more, nothing less.”

“Ideally the goal is to be all nine types, is to have a little bit of all nine types in us, which I believe that we do to some degree. But ultimately you are one specific type. There's no type that's better than the other.”

“If you look at the enneagram diagram, you will see nines are up at the top and it just goes in a counterclockwise pattern around from one back around up to nine. There's nothing sinister or you know hokey or cultish at all with this diagram of the Enneagram.”

“That's part of the work of the Enneagram, is to lean into that wing. And if you feel like you're somebody who's pretty balanced in them, that's cool. That's a great thing.”
