Summary

Today Glenn sits down with Carole Whittaker, a teacher on the Enneagram (which is a fascinating tool for personality typing).  Carole experienced a crisis of faith from her Catholic upbringing while she earned a PhD in Chemistry and began seeing that life outside her cultural faith bubble was different that what she had previously believed.  After some great personal challenges, Carole experienced a spiritual reawakening, and the Enneagram played an important role.   Part one of this conversation explores Carole’s background and story of faith crisis.  Part two goes into more depth on the Enneagram and the neurological habits we develop that color the different ways we view and experience the world.  It is a fascinating two-part series.  Enjoy.
