    Ep 31 Enneagram 7: Finding freedom from the Type 7’s traps (Interview with Milton Stewart)

    Listen in as Evolving Enneagram Founder Nhien Vuong interviews Enneagram professional Milton Stewart (Enneagram Type 7) (TN USA) about his personal, spiritual journey with the Enneagram. An Enneagram consultant, Milton is an internationally accredited Enneagram professional, Host of the Do It For The Gram Podcast, Founder of Kaizen Careers, Coaching and Consulting LLC, and IEA Global Board Member. In this interview, Milton opens up about his religious upbringing, his lifelong journey as a wisdom seeker, how he has come to a different understanding of (the Enneagram-based) Holy Ideas of Holy Wisdom and Holy Plan, learning to trust more and more that life will provide without his needing to compulsive plan ahead to ensure his good will come to him. Related, he shares about learning to "surrender" to healing and heartfelt connection and his coming to "know" God as a God that transcends any religion. Throughout this interview, Milton shares candidly about his grappling with the idea of being “superficial,” his recent revelations during a very recent trip to Egypt, his default tendency to positively reframe negatives as well as to imagine or plan for a good time and how those tendencies have masked his fears and past pain, keeping them from being healed. Milton also offers us useful advice and practices that have helped him to become more trusting and rooted, including the practice of breathing in and down, which has helped him to feel the constriction of fear in his body long enough for that fear to actually release.   ------ Learn more about Evolving Enneagram: www.evolvingenneagram.com IG: @evolvingenneagram   youtube.com/@evolvingenneagram.com  https://www.linkedin.com/company/evolving-enneagram/  Evolving Enneagram’s mission is to transform human ecosystems for a more compassionate and awakened world.

    Ep 29 Enneagram 5: Grabbed by the heart (Interview with Dr. Khaled El Sherbini)

    Listen in as Evolving Enneagram Founder Nhien Vuong interviews fellow Enneagram professional Dr. Khaled El Sherbini (Type 5) (EGYPT) about his personal, spiritual journey with the Enneagram. Dr. Khaled El Sherbini is the founder and chairman of “Enneagram Egypt,” the first and largest IEA accredited Enneagram school in North Africa and the Middle East. He is also the founder of “BeCon, the Consciousness Academy,” a dedicated academy focusing on human development and spiritual transformation. In this interview, Dr. Khaled shares about journey as a “well qualified” Five with multiple academic and professional credentials with a mere “hobby” around this quest for metaphysics to experiencing a split that caused him to take a “jump” of faith. Listen in as he shares his powerful journey to the “Holy Land” where he felt that he was undergoing a time of “cleaning” from his old life and self. Dr. Khaled, who identifies as a Muslim, opens up about his studies of the Enneagram, Reiki, integral theory, and more. He describes his mystical journey –one that which took him literally “up the mountain” (the holy Mount Sinai) and discusses his shift from emphasizing intellectual knowing as knowing the highest order to opening the gate to the energy (and messiness) of his heart making way for personal revelation, how the Enneagram connecting the spiritual to the material has helped to map his journey, and how his journey of honoring the intelligence of his heart and gut has begun to allow for a deeper "gnosis" or knowing--and embodied and more compassionate wisdom. ------ This interview is part of a 9-part Transformation By Type Interview series in which Rev Nhien Vuong interviews 9 Enneagram professionals from different spiritual traditions around the globe about their personal, spiritual journeys with the Enneagram.
