One of the gifts that the enneagram has given me is not to put myself in a box. To not limit who I am capable of being. Most of us enter into the conversation around personality from a place of, ‘this is just how I am.” But as you deepen your enneagram practice, you start to see that there is always room to expand. I, at one point, thought wholeheartedly that I would never settle down in a home or a city, but here I am beaming about the roots I am literally planting in the city I grew up in. I am still, in many ways, the same adventurous, impulsive, and exploratory being I’ve always been, but I’ve learned to do it in a way that is more sustainable and more grounded. At the start, the enneagram teaches us so much about who we have been, and who we thought we had to be. But as we learn more, I think the greatest gift is the expansion of who we get to become. All of the versions of ourselves that show up when we no longer have to play the same old role we’ve always played. What is something you do now that you could have never predicted?
