Welcome to "the Enneagram of Essence."

This podcast is about reminding us of what is GOOD about us, deep down in our core. Our Essence is something pure, beautiful, and powerful that can never be taken from us, and never tainted, no matter what we’ve been through. It is our True Self, beneath all the layers of defenses, stories, and neurotic habits that we call personality.

Unfortunately, the Enneagram is often used in a way that reinforces our bad habits; it can become one more way to identify with our ego. But the most important thing I’ve learned from my Enneagram teachers is that our Enneagram Type is actually NOT who we are, it’s what KEEPS us from being who we are.

It is possible to embark upon the Epic Journey from our Ego to our Essence, and there are two main tools that bring us there. One is the cultivation of Presence, which means we must be in contact with ourselves in the living moment, the unfolding NOW; by having the courage to connect to our bodies, hearts and minds. The second is to have spiritual disciplines or practices that help us return to this Presence again and again, and there are myriad ways of doing this, as my guests on this show demonstrate through their stories about their own Epic Journeys back home to Essence.

Each person on this podcast is truly amazing and has an important story to tell.
