In this podcast episode, Sarajane Case explores the concept of personal liberation through the Enneagram. She emphasizes that understanding our Enneagram type is important, but it shouldn't define or limit us. Sarajane provides specific advice for each type, such as allowing pleasure for Type 1s, loving oneself for Type 2s, and embracing the mundane for Type 4s. She also discusses the importance of self-love, avoiding comparison, and making decisions based on personal fulfillment. Sarajane concludes by reminding listeners that they have the power to choose a different way of being and invites them to join her for the next episode. -- Read more about coaching with me here: https://www.sarajanecase.com/partnership-updated Call/text your enneagram questions to (828) 338-9127 Grab a copy of my books at www.thehonestenneagram.com & www.theenneagramletters.com Check out my YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/sarajanecase Timestamps Personal Liberation through the Lens of the Enneagram [00:02:10] Discussion on how the Enneagram is not meant to drive our behavior, but to allow us to choose different patterns and show up in new ways.
