This summer, while I continue to heal from surgery and dream up Season 6, I am re-airing our most popular series: Creative Archetypes! If you are unfamiliar with the Enneagram, you can listen to the intro episode from the original 2023 series here. And if you are familiar and know your number, might I suggest you listen to each episode (even those that aren't about your number) to develop empathy and understanding of those who see the world differently. The Enneagram is a powerful tool for personal and relationship transformation, for artists and everyone! If you have episode ideas, dream guest suggestions, or other feedback for me, drop me an email hello@artistsforjoy.org  Original show notes: This week on the podcast, the Creative Archetype Series continues with Enneagram 4. Merideth chats with Lee Fields of Enneagrammatic about life as a 4. Plus, writers Kristin Vanderlip and Mara Eller, and painter Jennifer Hintz Eggers, share their insights on how to move beyond feelings and into doing and what we can all try to channel our inner Enneagram 4 to foster creative joy.  Invitation:  Listen to a few tracks from this album and feel your feelings.  Don't journal or try to fix anything yet. Ask yourself: "How are you feeling today?" and let the emotions come. When you are done, take whatever has come up for you and use it as creative fodder for something small-- a poem, painting, letter, card, or a meal that makes you feel comfort. Respond to whatever feelings you feel by making something.  Mara Eller Website Kristin Vanderlip Jennifer Hintz Eggers Burnout: Completing the Stress Cycle by Emily and Amelia Nagoski David Gate Enneagram Poems Enneagram Workshop with Artists for Joy Buy Merideth a coffee

John continues his conversation with Kelly Greene. In the previous episode, Kelly shared her journey from living with chronic illness to becoming a certified resilience coach.

And a lot of people get this very confused. You don't have to be successful to be a high achiever.” “A healthy mind is like a mansion … big open space, private rooms … If something happens and you can't deal with it, you put it in a room and close the door. Later, you open it, bring it out, and process it. A healthy mind knows when to suppress and when to process.” “You can't lead others unless you take care of yourself. You're not going to lead anyone if you die of a heart attack. You have to have integrity with yourself, learn how to be honest with yourself, and know where you need help, where you need to work, and where you need to grow.” “Your life is determined by what you believe… If you believe that you've got something great in you that needs to be shared, then there's something great in you that needs to be shared.” “People die every day because they don't know that their chronic illness is tied to their traumatic events.” “There's a difference between thinking something and believing something.” “Don't get coached by somebody who isn't being coached.” “It's very easy to feel like you're alone as an entrepreneur, especially if you're not surrounded by them.” “Don't pretend to be something you're not.” BOOKS MENTIONED: Letting Go, Finding You: Uncover Your Truest Self through the Enneagram and Contemplation by Hunter Mobley (https://a.co/d/eOuafdq) The Discovery Of The Unconscious by Henri F.

Send us a textThat moment when you realize your behaviors are sending you a message about what's still unhealed within - this is where our journey begins. Have you ever noticed how the things we do to hurt ourselves are actually reflecting deeper wounds crying out for attention?Today's episode dives deep into the uncomfortable truth from spiritual teacher Shri Prem Baba: "It's important to eat well, breathe well, sleep well, meditate and engage in healthy activities to nourish our body's health. And if you don't do that, it's anger toward yourself because of some unresolved issue that still makes you want to hurt yourself." This revelation struck me profoundly as I found myself slipping back into old patterns despite believing I had overcome them.Using the ancient wisdom of the Enneagram as a guide, I share my raw experience as an Eight with addictive tendencies, revealing how awareness becomes our most powerful ally in transformation. The journey isn't about perfection but about noticing – seeing clearly when we're caught in those familiar loops of self-sabotage. Through a powerful metaphor of choosing between life as a predictable merry-go-round or an exhilarating roller coaster, we explore why the spiritual awakening path feels so intensely challenging yet ultimately rewarding.What makes this evolutionary journey so unique is that we're all being called to it simultaneously. The matrix systems are dissolving, requiring each of us to step into our authentic selves with courage and vulnerability. As Joe Dispenza wisely notes, "We're not here to chase but to become. Not here to wish, but to embody." This distinction between external seeking and internal embodiment forms the cornerstone of true spiritual growth.Wherever you find yourself on this path of becoming – just beginning or well along the way – know that you're not alone. Take a moment this weekend to pause, connect with nature, and acknowledge the tremendous courage it takes to choose the roller coaster over the merry-go-round. Your journey matters, and your light is needed now more than ever.Support the show

When we talk about the Enneagram, so many misunderstandings seem to circulate—whether it's calling it just another personality test or believing our type changes depending on the day. In this solo episode, we'll break down the most common misconceptions and explore why the Enneagram can be a much deeper tool for self-reflection and real growth.We'll dig into what personality really means, why no two people with the same type look exactly alike, and why our type isn't something we get from an online quiz or a book. The real work begins after we identify our type—when we start to notice our patterns, get honest with ourselves, and build the range and compassion to show up differently. If you're curious about using the Enneagram as more than just a label, this conversation is for you.Resources:Listen to the Tools to Work Your Way playlist for deep dives into other frameworks and assessmentsListen to the Let's Talk About Labels playlist for discussions around the labels that we use to define ourselves and our behaviorsListen to Episode 42.

In this week's episode, I sit down with my friend Julie Honeycutt, a licensed professional counselor, certified IFS therapist, and approved clinical consultant. Julie has been integrating faith and counseling for over 20 years, and in this conversation, we explore how our attachment styles, parts, Enneagram, and developmental stages all shape our prayer life and spiritual connection. Julie shares that our attachment patterns and spiritual experiences are deeply linked, and how IFS offers a pathway to spirituality and how our different parts, even those with doubts We explore the idea that prayer doesn't have to look a certain way. It can show up in movement, in gardening, in painting, or even in those “texting prayers” we send up throughout the day. As Julie says, “What would it be like if our prayer life could reflect the unique way that God made us?” Julie also introduces the idea of the “levels of faith” and how parts of us may sit at different levels. Some of our parts may still hold early beliefs that we've outgrown, but they are still worthy of attention and care.  We talk about: How our parts have different attachment styles in prayer Why anxious parts often get exiled in spirituality The connection between the Enneagram, personality, and prayer How our developmental stage impacts how we experience faith Why meeting ourselves in our prayer life without shame changes everything How gardening and movement can be a spiritual practice Julie reminds us that all parts are welcome: “Even that part is welcome.” About Julie: Julie Honeycutt is a licensed professional counselor, certified IFS therapist for over 15 years and an Approved Clinical Consultant for the IFS Institute. She's been practicing the integration of faith and counseling for over 20 years in her private practice as well as in workshops and retreats.

Ruth (SX/SO 9w1 973) joins us for a luminous and radical exploration of the Sexual 9's longing for union — with God, with others, and, ultimately, with herself. From an early age, Ruth's life was shaped by profound mystical experiences: claiming Jesus at three, and at nine, encountering a vision of him entering her body — not metaphorically, but viscerally, as a wave of physical love. These moments left an imprint, becoming the compass by which she navigated the world — always reaching for a love that could hold her entire being. We explore how this early spiritual intensity tethered her to external sources of nourishment — church, relationships, ideals — while a deeper hunger for selfhood remained dormant, waiting to be reclaimed. Her story takes a sharp turn in her late 30s, when a “rude awakening” forced her to prioritize self-care and embodiment. What unfolds is a quiet revolution: the shift from merging to individuation, from numbing to sensation, from floating in spirit to landing in body.

This week I've got returning guest, Doug Lynam, joining me on the podcast to talk about his new book, Taming Your Money Monster: 9 Paths to Money Mastery with the Enneagram. Despite his wishes, Doug's publisher edited out all references to both Doug's personal psychedelic experiences and how they brought growth and maturity to his relationship with money, but also a chapter he'd originally included about the psychedelic history of the Enneagram. To counter this editing, Doug requested that we do a "coming out of the psychedelic closet" interview on the podcast to coincide with the release of the new book, and here it is! 

Today, we're sitting down with Doug Lynam - Marine, monk, money coach, and author of Taming Your Money Monster. Doug doesn't just help people build better budgets. He helps them untangle the deep wounds, attachment patterns, and spiritual beliefs that shape how we handle money. We talk about money not as a neutral tool, but as something we carry stories about - stories that often go back to childhood, shaped by shame, fear, or control. Doug shares how the Enneagram and attachment theory can help us make sense of our financial habits and, more importantly, heal them. He offers a vision of financial health that's rooted in authenticity, generosity, and service to a broken world. If you've ever felt anxious around money, avoided looking at your bank account, or struggled to align your finances with your deepest values join us. Doug Lynam graduated at the top of his class from Marine Corps Officer Candidate School in 1995, then turned down his commission to become a Benedictine monk. During his 20-year monastic journey, he headed the mathematics department at a prestigious private school while helping his community recover from bankruptcy. After leaving the monastery in 2017, he joined LongView Asset Management in Santa Fe, New Mexico—a sustainability-focused B Corp—where he helped manage over a quarter-billion in assets.

Tired of the mental exhaustion that comes from constantly wondering what others think of you? In this episode, bestselling author and pastor Sharon Hodde Miller, Enneagram 7 (7-3 pairing) reveals why examining our life without just gazing inward, but also up at God and outwardly to others can also help us to break free from the self-focused scripts that keep us trapped in insecurity. Although some Enneagram patterns fuel self-preoccupation, others fuel giving in excess so today we talk candidly for all types about what it looks like to find true rest in our relationship with God rather than our performance. Whether you're a perfectionist who can't stop self-critiquing or someone whose marriage triggers more anxiety than peace, this conversation offers a grace-filled path to freedom from the exhausting cycle of self-focus that keeps us from truly connecting with God and others.

This summer, while I continue to heal from surgery and dream up Season 6, I am re-airing our most popular series: Creative Archetypes! If you are unfamiliar with the Enneagram, you can listen to the intro episode from the original 2023 series here. And if you are familiar and know your number, might I suggest you listen to each episode (even those that aren't about your number) to develop empathy and understanding of those who see the world differently. The Enneagram is a powerful tool for personal and relationship transformation, for artists and everyone! If you have episode ideas, dream guest suggestions, or other feedback for me, drop me an email hello@artistsforjoy.org  Original show notes: This week in the Creative Archetypes Series, we hear from Enneagram 3s. Merideth chats with Ashley Hall-Tighe, trumpet player and certified life coach, Nii Codjoe, product researcher and career coach, and Tombo Hite, attorney, whose biggest claim to fame is that he's Merideth's older brother. :) They explore the 3's secret weapon for getting things done, how to calm the chaos when you're going 100 mph, plus how to find your true worthiness outside of your achievements. Invitation: 3's Super Power—The To-do List Before you start your day or a creative session, make a list of things that you'd like to accomplish. Imagine what you'd like to say you've done by the end of the day. Hold the list loosely. Check in with yourself as you work. Let the list push you forward when you are feeling uninspired or unsure of what to do next. And if you get to the end of the day and your list is unfinished, take a deep breath and try again tomorrow. Remember: you are not defined by all you get done or don't.

As we begin wrapping up season 5, we're answering the question, "What now?" We've looked at all seven types through the lens of three influential models, but how do we actually apply it? As we say our goodbyes, we ask our six teachers how their models contribute to growth and transformation, as well as their hopes for the future evolution of the Enneagram.Awareness to ActionEnneagram on Demand - Certification ProgramMario Sikora: IG: @mariosikoraTikTok: @mariosikoraWeb: mariosikora.comSubstack: mariosikora.substack.comMaria Jose Munita: IG: @mjmunitaWeb: mjmunita.comPodcasts:Awareness to Action Enneagram in a MovieThe Narrative TraditionTerry Saracino:Web: https://www.narrativeenneagram.org/team/terry-saracino/Christopher Copeland:Web: illuminatingpaths.comNarrative Podcasts:Heart of the EnneagramThe Somatic EnneagramFrom Armor to EaseThe Enneagram InstituteGayle Scott: Email - gayle@enneagrammysteryschool.comMichael Naylor:Web - enneagrammaine.comYou Tube - Enneagram Maine Interviews—Fathoms | An Enneagram Podcast: Serious Growth for Unserious Humans—Help Fathoms, By Supporting Us Here: Fathoms Membership CommunityCo-hosts: Seth Abram, Seth Creekmore, Lindsey MarksProduction/Editing: Liminal PodcastsFollow us on Instagram: @fathoms.enneagramFollow Abram:

In Part 2, we unpack our thoughts on what the Enneagram teachers shared in our last episode. You'll hear us compare and contrast the models, and share what resonated with us, as well as what we'd like to see evolve, and we explore how we plan to synthesize all we've learned and carry it forward. We are so very grateful to our six teachers for their gift of time and knowledge, and their incredible generosity.
