2022-01-0834 minEnneagram TypecastUsing the Enneagram for ChangeIn this episode, we'll be talking about putting the Enneagram into use for real, personal, change! Personal change is the ability to comfortably demonstrate new behaviors that produce new results in your life, which in turn cause you to feel differently. Lee and Caryn ask, can you take Enneagram knowledge and make a real, long-lasting transformation in your life? We discuss why change is challenging, complex, uncomfortable, and a non-linear journey. We get honest about personal wins, failures, and talk about how we've seen our paths change for the better by doing the work.

This thinking group, which is home to Enneagram Types 5, 6, and 7, is also referred to as the "Fear Triad."

These types have a strong desire for safety, competence, and predictability.
All Head Center types deal with fear or anxiety. However, each type confronts or addresses fear/anxiety very differently. Type 5s tend to be anxious internally about the...

2021-10-021h 20Enneagram TypecastThree Centers of Intelligence – The Gut CenterIn this episode, your hosts Lee and Caryn will introduce you to the Enneagram's Three Centers of Intelligence. This week we're kicking off with "The Gut" or "Body Center." This instinctual group, which is home to Enneagram Types 8, 9, and 1, is also referred to as the "Anger Triad." The body center copes with their dominant emotion of anger in the way they respond to gut feelings or physical sensations. Type 8s express their anger outwardly, 9s deny, push aside, and/or likely feel threatened by these emotions, and 1s repress, try to control, and/or turn these emotions inward.
