How We Create Stories

In this episode of the Awareness to Action Enneagram podcast, Mario Sikora, María José Munita and Seth "Creek" Creekmore talk about the inner triangle of the Enneagram and how it leads to change. The psyche is constantly functioning on autopilot but tries to create a story when we encounter something that causes friction or anxiety. The three hosts explain how this can be a useful thing and how each type writes their stories.

“The work is all about recognizing our stories.” -Mario [08:39]


It is fascinating to see how people see behaviors, but always have a story around that behavior.” -María José [25:48]


“When the story becomes static is when it becomes a problem.” -Creek [29:09]
