124: The Wisdom of the Enneagram with Holly Krepps

The Cosmic Business Podcast

Today’s episode is all about the wisdom of the Enneagram, which is a system of transformation that classifies human personality into nine basic types. I’ve been fascinated, maybe even low-key obsessed, with this self-evaluation tool for about a decade. Even though it isn’t central to the work I do with clients, I use it to support myself in my self-observation practice.

My guest is the ideal person to help us understand this interpersonal tool that she uses in her work. Join us to learn more!

Holly Krepps is a former client of mine and the founder of Circle Yoga Shala. She is an internationally accredited yoga therapist and a facilitator of the West Wisdom Enneagram. She is an alumnus of Father Richard Rohr’s three-year Living School, a non-dual-based wisdom school in conjunction with his Center for Contemplation and Action in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Holly has facilitated Enneagram groups seeking an authentic relationship with self and others for the past 16 years. In her own words, “I lead a full and content life resulting from fearless, sensitive living and radical acceptance of what is. If a way of ‘being’ has culminated or been reinforced by my engagement with Yoga, the Enneagram, and other perennial teachings, it is that of surrender. Surrender to the Divine and to what is happening in each moment and maintaining a felt connection to Self is the opposite of getting lost in mechanical action as the basis for joy and peace in the midst of this beautiful play of MA(ya).” Holly previously joined the show for Episode 55, Saying Yes to Reality.

Show Highlights:

• Holly’s explanation of the Enneagram as “much more than a personality tool”
• Why the Enneagram is a mysterious wisdom and ancient teaching about how the cosmos works
• How figuring out Holly’s Enneagram number has helped her understand her stress reactions and her “survival operating system”
• Why all of us can be multi-dimensional with more than one number on the Enneagram because of the natural movement in our lives
• How self-observation helps us “see through” our fixations and reclaim our power around them
• How knowing her Enneagram number has helped Holly with business success
• What Holly recommends for those just starting with the wisdom of the Enneagram
• An overview of Holly’s course, programs, and offerings
