In order to make sense or find meaning in our lives in early childhood, we develop narratives that sort of explain our life experiences. We often choose specific incidents that we string together into the plot we now live.\\xa0 But, have you ever stopped to ask yourself if the story you are living is true?

In today\\u2019s episode with singer/songwriter Ryan Stevenson, we really tackle the concept of owning your own narrative and challenge whether the interpretations of your own story are in fact true. And if they\\u2019re not, the Enneagram can help provide you with some clarity about the story you\\u2019re living in right now.

We hope this episode encourages you to reflect on your own story.\\xa0 To get started, simply ask yourself:

• Are my interpretations about who I am and the way the world is true?
• Is my story helping me simply \\u201csurvive\\u201d life rather than to live it fully?

And remember, you have the freedom and the power to change your story.\\xa0 You can revise your interpretations and see your true story through a new lens.
