The Impact of Fears and Desires on our Friendships: Intro to the Enneagram
Do you know your Enneagram (personality) type and how your core fears and desires impact your friendships? I understood very little about anything Enneagram related before my interview with Christina S. Wilcox, author of Take Care of Your Friends: An Enneagram Guide to Interpersonal Relationships. I still have a lot to learn!
Consider this episode an introduction to the Enneagram and a reminder that each of us is wired differently through nature, nurture, and life’s experiences. Understanding ourselves on a deep level helps us be better friends because it gives us more patience and grace for others. The Enneagram is one tool towards that goal.

NOTE: There are many resources online about Enneagram tests and more. I took a free quiz here. Please note: I have no idea how this site compares to others!
