Episodes

  • Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes discuss how early childhood development is impacted by Enneagram types. As adults, if we make the connections between our current struggles to unattended needs that come from childhood, it can make behavioral changes easier.

    This valuable theme is taught in the CP Enneagram Academy’s professional Enneagram Skills workshop, which is offered online each year.

    They reference Sigmund Freud, Claudio Naranjo, Karne Horney, and many others who have paved the way to understanding this relationship between nature and nurture.

  • Humility is an important concept in inner work according to many spiritual traditions. In some ways, it’s a key part of what the Enneagram is about, which is disidentifying with ego.

    Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes will discuss how humility is commonly understood but also how we might understand it when we are using the Enneagram for inner work. They discuss how pride shows up in all nine types and all three dominant instincts, and how humility can help us discern the difference between ego and our true selves.

  • Our personality is a defensive coping structure to protect us from pain, including traumatic injury. This defense mechanism was necessary when dealing with trauma at the time, but afterward, we tend to have problems that flow from that defense that block our growth. It becomes like a wound that hasn’t been healed and creates challenges for change. Uranio Paes and licensed psychotherapist Beatrice Chestnut share specific cases they had with clients of each Enneagram type when healing trauma.

    CP Enneagram Academy has Enneagram inner work retreats that use trauma healing to help students.

  • The whole process of working with the Enneagram to grow and transform is based on observing what’s really happening to us. Self-observation and self-reflection sometimes sound simple, but as a psychotherapist, Beatrice Chestnut knows from working with clients that it doesn’t come naturally to us. People are often very surprised at what they find when they intentionally try to observe something in themselves.

    The Enneagram helps point out patterns in our personality that we can intentionally observe. Once we make our unconscious patterns conscious, it’s almost like our personality loses its reason for being. Because the personality is a self-defensive structure, shining a light onto our unconscious patterns makes it easier to eventually work on letting them go.

    Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes provide practical ideas about what to do for each of the nine Enneagram types to notice our personality patterns and how to make them more conscious.

  • Pulling from the theory of Claudio Narajano, Bea and Uranio share some common myths and misconceptions about Enneagram types when subtypes are not understood.

    When referring to subtypes, they are not referring to Wings. They use instinctual subtypes, which describe the mix of the passion of the type and dominant instinct, which is either self-preservation, social, or sexual. It is easy to think people of the same type are similar because they share a common passion. However, the dominant instinct influences the passion, and the subtype places a spotlight on the traits that make people different within each type.

    For decades, Bea and Uranio studied the instinctual subtypes in-depth, but they also put the subtypes to the test by helping individuals and seeing subtypes work in practice. This is a great episode that can help prevent mistyping and guide people to their distinct growth paths.

  • Most people use the heart center superficially, meaning they use reactive and conditioned emotions, like an emotional reflex. In this episode, Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes go through each of the nine types and describe ways in which all Enneagram types can Activate their Heart Center and truly feel the four core emotions: fear, anger, sadness, and happiness. Activating the Heart Center is important for all types, including Heart types. It’s a sign of emotional maturity. It is when someone can deeply feel a range of emotions rather than disconnect from them, avoid them, or express them reactively.

  • Every Enneagram type has a head center. While types Five, Six, and Seven overuse this center, the Body and Heart types underuse it.

    In this episode, Uranio Paes explains that the majority of people use the most basic part of the lower Head Center too often and during inappropriate times. It is the mechanical part of the brain that is used to memorize information without critical thinking or reasoning. In this mode, people are vulnerable to confirmation bias because anything that challenges the current way of thinking is avoided. Uranio describes the phases of developing the Head Center and how it can test our understanding of the world around us.

    Also, this episode’s Top Five is light-hearted. It is the top five most interesting things that Uranio Paes noticed about Beatrice Chestnut.

  • We are not our personalities. However, when we are unaware of our lower selves, it’s easy to identify with our personalities. In this episode, Uranio Paes goes through each of the nine types to give examples of how to fool the personality so that we can be free from its hold on us.

    Each of the nine Enneagram types has an over-developed Center of Intelligence. Uranio talks about The Fourth Way, an approach to self-development created by George Gurdjieff. Gurdjieff was the pioneer who brought the Enneagram to the West. He taught that the first way is the way of the body, the second is the way of the heart, and the third is the way of the mind. The Fourth Way is mixing these three Centers of Intelligence so our personality doesn’t control how we react and we can be a more complete human beyond the confines of our personality.
