Hi Reader, Type "Diet Books," into Google and you'll get a staggering 711 million results. That's a massive amount. Clearly, dieting is big business. In an age when there are more diet products available than ever before, more of us are overweight. Something isn't right. To date the idea has been that we all gain weight for the same emotional reasons. I believe our Enneagram types strongly influence why we gain weight (and how we can lose it). Personally, after spending the first half of my...

Dear Reader I have to apologize for being so very absent in the past few months. I've been busy preparing my talk on Art and the Enneagram for the International Enneagram Association's Annual Conference which starts today. It's been a huge (and painful), learning curve, from writing, creating the video, and finding out how to edit.

Just finished this live interview with such a stunning woman, Svenja Krauer from on Women in Growth, on the Enneagram in general and Sex and the Enneagram. Thought you may enjoy. Feel free to comment or ask...

Hi Reader, The Enneagram is a paradox. On one level it appears fairly easy to understand, but as we delve deeper, we find more subtle nuances. When it comes to the Enneagram of Personality, over and above our core type, there are variations that personality types use to play out their particular neurosis. Today we're going to look at Tritypes (the name given by Katherine Chernick Fauvre the prime innovator on the Tritype) and how they affect you. I've put together this short video. Enjoy your...
