Hey Sister! What’s Your Number? Understanding the Enneagram 101 with Suzanne Stabile
For the past several years, there’s been a buzz about a self-assessment tool known as the Enneagram. The purpose of it? To know thyself. It is a system of classifying personality types based on a nine-pointed starlike figure inscribed within a circle. While it may seem the Enneagram suddenly surfaced into the milieu of culture, in fact it has been in existence for centuries. If you’ve ever heard anyone say, “I’m a 2 with a 3 wing,” or “That’s such a 7 thing to do,” chances are you’ve encountered Enneagram-devotees who have used it to further their self-discovery.
Suzanne Stabile is a highly sought-after Enneagram Master who has taught over 500 workshops worldwide. She joins The Sisterhood to teach us the basics of this system: the origin, what exactly it is, how we can use it in our individual lives, how it helps us in relationships, how to understand our motivations, and what it looks like to be healthy and unhealthy in our number. We also address criticisms of the Enneagram and talk through how it differs from the other self-assessments out there.
If you are looking to understand yourself and others better, if you’ve heard about the Enneagram but can’t get a handle on exactly what it is, or if you simply want to learn more about this helpful tool, you’ve come to the right episode. Listen in and learn!

We encourage one another to believe God. Believe who He says He is and what He promises. And then to encourage one another to live from that belief in our daily decisions. We like to say we are encouraging women to "be world changers for good right where they are.” That means believing God can use all of us regardless of our circumstances to influence the world for good.
