Publisher's summary

This is a personal transformation book rooted in the wisdom of the Enneagram system of personality types. It is a book about waking up and growing into the best version of yourself. It is a book that shows you how to discover who you are and what you can be. It is a book about finding your path, facing your shadow, and discovering your true self.

It is a good news - bad news - good news story. The good news: You survived childhood. The bad news: In order to grow, you are going to experience some pain. The really good news: You can use your negative habits as a springboard to move beyond them. With a commitment to self-observation and reflection, you can develop greater self-awareness and open yourself up to a life filled with exciting choices and opportunities.

Each of the nine chapters includes these features:

  • The problematic perspective, the process of self-discovery, and the path forward for that type
  • How the main issues for that type get played out in three different ways
  • The three distinct sub-types of the main type (necessary for pinpoint accuracy in describing your personality and your path of growth)

Loved This Book

A wonderful deep dive into Enneagram types, of which I gleened a great deal. I'm a type 5 and am working on myself. This book helps to create the pathway to a better me.

One minor thing: in order to enjoy the narration I put the speed to 1.3. I guess that's not really a negative, as everyone is different.

Excellent Content!

I’ve listened to this book several times and gain more insight each time. I listen to the narration at 1.2x and it is a much better tone and cadence. If someone has a problem with the narration I suggest speeding it up, it really helps! I love audiobooks because it’s easy to skip back 30 seconds or more when the mind inevitably wanders. This book is a great addition to the Complete Enneagram by Beatrice Chestnut.

Poor and boring narrator

Just couldn't listen.
The narrator's voice made it difficult to listen. I enjoy learning about the enneagram and read and listened to a couple books on the topic. Unfortunately this narrator was hard to follow and painful to listen. No disrespect intended.

Can't stand the haughty tone of narrator.

I am trying to stay with - as I love the enneagram but this narrator is intolerable - I can't tell what I think of the information - safely returning
