In this episode, Milton speaks with R. Karl Hebenstreit, an author, keynote speaker, a certified Enneagram coach and organizational development practitioner. Karl discusses how he realized that the Enneagram–which he learned during his PhD studies in Organizational Psychology–could be used as a model for business applications, from team building to conflict resolution. This eventually led to his book, “The How and Why: Taking Care of Business with the Enneagram,” which provides practical tips, tools and techniques to apply the Enneagram to all challenges. He then extracted from the chapter on decision-making to a children’s book, “Nina & The Really, Really Tough Decision.” Karl shares how this book–that is available in four languages–introduces children to the Enneagram to help them understand that there is diversity in perspectives in the world and why it’s important to know each of these nine perspectives, their drivers, motivations and gifts that they bring.

In this episode, Milton speaks with Elisabeth Wurm, a theater director, Enneagram teacher and IT recruiter from St. Louis. Elizabeth was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in 2015, which came with depression and anxiety, and most recently diagnosed with brain cancer. She discusses her journey trying to navigate this as well as the Enneagram work she’s done in the past 10 years. As an Enneagram Type Two, she talks about how she leaned into the Type Eight space to advocate for what she needs and into the space of her security number Four when she’s feeling secure in being alone. She also shares tips on how to be in support and a good friend to someone with a chronic illness or battling cancer.
