Around the Circle: An Enneagram Podcast Jeff Cook and T.J. Wilson
-
- Religion & Spirituality
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 launching point for all the stuff we want to say this summer about Instincts and beyond.
The one change we would make is that we started with a heavy focus on subtypes, and by the end-and still today--we prefer to elevate the idea of Instincts and Social Energy as primary.
Over the coming two months, we will be walking through the three instincts, interviewing experts and laying out our theories for discussion.
As always, if you are interested in talking shop with us, we meet monthly on Zoom, find the links to all our stuff at Aroundthecircle.org
Do share this with those you discuss enneagram with, send us your thoughts on instagram, and we always appreciate stars on spotify, itunes and the rest.
Dear listener, we continue to be immensely grateful for your support and attention. Our deep hope is that these podcasts point you toward happiness and well being. We hope they make you a better person and your relationships more rich and fruitful.
We continue to record with these hopes firmly in mind, and want you to know we are cheering for you, for your strength as you overcome the obstacles ahead, for contentment, grace, and maturity through all life throws your way.
Dear listener, on this day, may every good thing be yours. -
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. -
