Around the Circle: An Enneagram Podcast

Jeff Cook and T.J. Wilsonwww.aroundthecircle.org
The Enneagram is a map of the human personality. It’s a tool for navigating relationships. It creates language for what motivates us and helps us look at the way we look at everything else. Most importantly the enneagram is a mirror; because sometimes you need help seeing yourself. This is Jeff Cook and T.J. Wilson going around the circle to discuss various topics and how they affect each type.

Instincts | An Intro

Two years ago, TJ and I wanted to stick our toe into the world of Subtypes, Instincts and Social Energies. We tried our best to come to the topic, not as experts but as travelers inviting others to journey into this world with us. After spending a year and a half meditating on the material, learning more, reviewing all the resources and trying to get our own hearts and minds around the topic: we feel that intro works very well. All the big ideas are here, and we're proud this discussion as a lau...

Inside Out | Part II

We are very excited to jump into our summer film just before the release of its sequel. Inside Out is a major achievement in not only music, character and beauty, but in showcasing our inner life. TJ and I have had a delightful time walking through the beats and themes of this film and found all the beats highly discussable.

We hope you'll share this with folks in your life who are enneagram curious and love the Bible We hope that even those who know nothing about the Bible will give this a try. Sen...
