Are you familiar with the Enneagram? If not, you’re in for a treat! Each of us embodies certain aspects of all nine Enneagram types, but we emerge from childhood with one dominant type. I’m a 2 wing 1, which means I’m a perfectionist-giver. It also means I have my therapist on speed dial. So, if you’ve ever wondered why you interpret the world or emotionally react in certain ways, read on to discover your Enneagram type.
The Enneagram doesn’t put you in a box. It shows you the box you’re already in and how to get out of it.
