Mindful Enneagram

This is another "casual upload" episode recapping what Mindful Enneagram has been for me in 2021, what I'm up to currently, and what I see is in store for my coaching practice and this podcast. Big shoutout to those few of you who have hung with me through 2021. I appreciate you!

In this episode Jerry and I discuss the Enneagram from a clinical perspective. What research has been done to prove out its theories and what experimentation is needed to move beyond correlation. We also cover what makes a good Enneagram assessment and what to look for if you decide a digital assessment would be helpful.

[TW: Suicide] In this bonus, raw, and unedited recording I talk through the loss of my friend Mason to suicide and dealing with suffering and pain from all of our being - not just the intelligence center we overidentify with.  

In this episode I talk with Sarah, my wife, about our story of a Head type and a Heart type choosing each other through all the twists and turns of our relationship. Technical Challenges: This episode fought hard NOT to be published! Even so, the audio quality is not up to my standards. What you'll hear is our conversation as recorded through my iPhone that was supposed to be hooked up to a lav mic... My hope is that the quality doesn't overshadow the conversation. - Steve VK
