EPISODE 1

Introducing the Enneagram with Richard Rohr

In this season-opening episode of Everything Belongs, the CAC team returns to one of Richard Rohr’s most foundational teachings: The Enneagram—an ancient tool revealing how our wounds lead to our wisdom and our work in the world. Richard shares the surprising story of how The Enneagram “found” him and how it transformed his work and spiritual teaching. The hosting team —CAC Dean of Faculty Carmen Acevedo Butcher, Drew Jackson, Paul Swanson, Cassidy Hall, and Mike Petrow — reflect on their own “origin stories,” sharing how this tool has shaped their healing, relationships, and solidarity with others. Whether you’re brand new to the Enneagram or a longtime seeker, this warm, insightful conversation invites you into a season of curiosity, compassion, and contemplative growth. Welcome to a journey that helps reveal how everything — and everyone — belongs.

Everything Belongs, and the CAC in general, is my go-to source for wisdom, meditation and spiritual practices. I feel SEEN here. The teachings fill my soul and bring me home to myself. I highly recommend, and thank the CAC and all of the gist speakers for sharing their wisdom with the world!
Internal Family Systems (IFS) & episode 4’s shadow work

For anyone looking for practical ways to meet , befriend, and help shadow parts grow more fully, you may want to look into Internal Family Systems (IFS) or “parts work” originated by Richard Schwartz, Ph.D. I also really enjoyed his book You Are The One You’ve Been Waiting For which outlines this work for couples.

Hello, I just started listening to the latest episode of Everything Belongs podcast. It begins with Fr. Richard quoting Pope Leo. The quote has been debunked, determined to be fake. I suggest check my assertion, pull that section, pull that section out and re-edit the episode. We are ALL going to need to check and recheck our sources as the fake news attempts are increasing. Once I have heard a fake quote it makes it hard for me to continue listening. It discredits you/Fr Richard. It erodes trust. I just wanted to let you know what I discovered and u hope you will address it as soon as humanly possible. Eric

Love the podcast! Love the book! P.S. I keep hearing Fr. Richard mention spiral dynamics and I would love for him to do a whole podcast on that subject. Especially in light of current events.
