Show Notes:
0.00: Curiosity around human nature and what makes us tick led Sarajane Case to the Enneagram as a tool to understand our shadows, our light and who we think we have to be in life. "My hope was that it was written in such a kind and compassionate way that it would al written in a kind way that it could alter your experience with your own inner voice, so that you would be hearing my language as you thought about the things you wanted to grow through."
7:00: Sarajane defines the Enneagram: a map of the human psyche broken down into 9 distinct personality types. "The way I like to describe it is that it's telling you what you thought you had to be. Every type has this message in their life of what they felt like they had to be in order to be ok, loved, accepted, survive... and the Enneagram is about breaking that open and realizing that we put this thing on and we don't have to wear it. We don't have to be that to be ok.
14:50: Sharing the Enneagram on Instagram as a side hobby, and how Enneagram and Coffee blew up (in 3 days!) and turned into a brand. How brand builders, content creators and marketers can resist the temptation to chase the trend at all costs and cut through the clutter to the real.
23:55: How content creators can best produce and create using the wisdom of the Enneagram. "When we know the things that hold us back - if I've learned this little puzzle piece of what I've always thought I had to be, then I can start to notice how that's keeping me limited."
30:00: Sarajane's typical day: silent mornings, having the world to herself, journaling, reading and inspiration trackers.
36:15: What Beth, Char and Sarajane are so into and what they're currently consuming.
