108: Why you are mistyped on the Enneagram and why that is so common

With the popularity of the Enneagram comes a lot of misinformation.⁣⁣If you really want to use this beautiful, incredible, amazing, life-changing tool that is the Enneagram, the wrong information can defeat the purpose.⁣⁣⁣Listen now⁣⁣⁣If you’re not using the Enneagram the way it’s supposed to, then you may be taking yourself down a road that doesn’t serve you very well.⁣⁣I spend most of my days coaching and leading people to their right Enneagram type, helping them feel seen, heard, and understood.⁣⁣I help them discover who they are and allow others to see them for who they are.⁣⁣The problem with taking online assessments.⁣⁣Taking an online test is a great starting point, but oftentimes people take the type that’s returned to them as the holy grail.⁣⁣But 65-70% of the time, these assessments are inaccurate. The more people dig into the type they’ve received, the more they see a disconnect. They want to believe that it’s a great tool, but it’s not clicking.⁣⁣Here’s why so many people are mistyped.⁣⁣There is one online assessment I like better than the others, but it’s still inaccurate most of the time.⁣⁣For someone who’s spent countless hours with people unpacking the Enneagram and getting them on the right path, I’ve realized the value in having someone lead you through some questioning: because it’s hard to be objective with ourselves.⁣
