Why is the Enneagram so useful?
“At first glance, the Enneagram seems to be just another system for pigeon-holing people. But look twice and you see it’s describing something central: your core strategy for making sense of reality, your basic life stance, the axis of your flat earth. As you investigate the system and compare its insights with your own experience, you may be amazed at its depth and accuracy."

It starts with recognising that unconscious suffering has been driving our behaviour, and that our Type is causing the very things that we have been trying to avoid.
We recognise that our outdated Type patterns are making our life, or a particular aspect of our life, unmanageable.

The lies and traps of our type
Deeper Enneagram teaching: The Enneagons of the Lies and the Traps
Lesser-known elements in the Enneagram - the Enneagons of the Lies and Traps - are particularly helpful wisdom in the Coaching context. Not to diagnose our clients, but to notice them in ourselves as practitioners. Sometimes we try to "teach" a coachee our coping strategy, and it is unfortunately a fake cure (Lie) and a Trap. This is a powerful reminder of the fact that we are all looking for the right things, just in all the wrong places.
