Here "Ego" Again...

In this episode of the Awareness to Action Enneagram podcast, Mario Sikora, María José Munita and Seth "Creek" Creekmore talk about ego, what it means and some of the misnomers. They discuss how it differs from personality and how people can work with the ego rather than against it.

“We can’t reject our Enneagram type, and we shouldn’t try. We should not demonize our bias to rely on one of the strategies more than the other Eight.” -Mario [13:08]

 “When you see it as a whole package, which has light and dark aspects, you start feeling better about yourself.” -María José [19:09]


“What I think is important to name is that self-acceptance is not a light switch.” -Creek [19:36]
