220: Summer Series: Childhood Wounding in the Enneagram with Ramona Reid

Published: July 23, 2020, 8 a.m.

By nature, all of us have the Child, Adolescent and Adult parts of ourselves...but these parts can look very different depending on our personality and life experience. Through the lens of the Enneagram, we can understand more about our personality and the ways we show up in stress and in health, and in this episode, Enneagram coach Ramona Reid breaks down how the wounds we received as a child affect our personality later in life.

Our Enneagram type is often influenced by the message we did not hear as a child, and we form a personality or mask to make up for that wound. This might look like trying to be good and perfect, getting big and strong or trying to keep the peace with everyone around us, but it\u2019s always an ego response. Ramona does a beautiful job tying the Enneagram into The Adult Chair model and helping each of us understand what our Child, Adolescent and Adult might look like based on our type.

This show was as cool as it was informative! Even if you have never heard of the Enneagram, you will benefit from listening as it will deepen your understanding of your wounding and how you are showing up in the world.

\u201cThe point is not to never be triggered again. It\u2019s to understand that triggers are human and they\u2019re mine...I want to learn how to encounter them with more accountability and integrity and love for myself and my inner child.\u201d - Ramona Reid

\u201cEveryone\u2019s just sort of doing the best they can, and then we internalize that. When we\u2019re little, we think, \u2018This is about me,\u2019 and we create separation from our essence.\u201d - Ramona Reid

\u201cAs children, we are sponges and absorb everything around us...and it becomes ours. It\u2019s why you\u2019ve got to observe everything and pay attention to what\u2019s going on inside of you.\u201d - Michelle Chalfant

\xa0

\u201cThe work from my perspective is getting in touch with what\u2019s actually going on. Notice where our minds are going, where our hearts are going, out of presence...when we\u2019re able to be present, that\u2019s when our core essential qualities will show up.\u201d - Ramona Reid
