That Time I Heard the Enneagram’s Call

For over two decades, I’ve been on a remarkable journey with the Enneagram—a path that began before I even knew it would call upon me. You could say it’s in my blood. 

This ancient model has been both my guide and my muse.

I was around twenty years old when I first stumbled upon my mother’s well-read Enneagram books, filled with hand-scribbled notes and reflections. They were displayed on shelves that welcomed guests in the foyer at her home—almost as if they were calling to me each time I entered.

My mother, a visionary who studied with the original legends of the Enneagram, founded The Embodiment Tradition—a visceral approach that piqued my interest. 

Her influence was a light that drew me to the mystical world of the Enneagram.

On a steamy Florida morning, I had the opportunity to attend one of her day-long Enneagram workshops. It was a whirlwind of insights, exercises, and profound connections. I found myself drawn into this intricate realm, feeling both challenged and enchanted by its complexity.

But that was just the beginning. 

That hot summer workshop marked not just an introduction but a portal into a transformative journey. I couldn’t have known then how those ancient symbols and concepts would take hold of my heart, igniting a lifelong passion.

I went on to study with many of the Enneagram teachers of the 2000s, delving into various perspectives. However, as I immersed myself in the traditional approach over the years, a restlessness began to grow within me—a hunger for something more nurturing, more holistic, more real.

This inspired me to evolve the Enneagram beyond insight, into a practical guide—emphasizing wholeness and healing through essence. As a somatic psychotherapist I already had a wealth of resources to explore healing beyond cognitive analysis. Somatic therapy techniques emphasize bodily sensations, nurturing nervous system awareness and wellness. 

Knowing how to cultivate real and lasting transformation through the body is essential for tapping into essence.

This approach is profound yet practical—integrating the ancient wisdom of the Enneagram and the modern science of somatic psychology. And it all began with that time I heard the call of the Enneagram, guided by my mother’s wisdom as I set forth on a path all my own.

A journey that I now invite you to join.
