Interview - Self Awareness Educator Suzanne Dion on the Enneagram System

Today we speak with Suzanne Dion, a brilliant, lovely researcher dedicated to her craft, which justhappensto be the Enneagram system of self-awareness. With origins going back to the Sufis and the later the spiritual teacher George Gurdjieff, Suzanne studied at the well known current Enneagram school, TNE, The Narrative Enneagram.
With psychiatrist, Dr. David Daniels, Adjunct Clinical Professor Emeritus Stanford University Medical School, she has written a major tome on the topic, “The Enneagram, Relationships, and Intimacy: Understanding One Another Leads to Loving Better and Living More Fully.” 
On today’s show, she gives us an introductory understanding of the system, using the 16-year old environmental activist, Greta Thumberg, as an example of how it works, with particular reference to issues of righteous anger and shaming.
Suzanne, as a founding board member of Enneagram Prison Project, took the Enneagram into the California jail and prison system, helping hundreds of marginalized individuals process their deep traumas.
 
One key difference with the Enneagram from say, Astrology, is that you ascertain your own personality type, rather than external factors, like your birthdate and location. So for example, Mrs. Future, though an Aries by birth, is actually a ‘7’, her ‘bon vivant’ personality traits revealed via the Enneagram. An educational and fun show, enjoy!
