Description
There are many personality tests out there, and the one of which most are aware is Myers-Briggs. It was published in 1962 and was considered the gold standard for many years, but it is really just a tool that analyzes behaviors. The Enneagram, however, takes a deep-dive into one's personality and provides a course of true self-discovery. The modern Enneagram, which has origins that go back hundreds of years, has enjoyed a resurgence in the last thirty years.Deni Tato was the ever-optimistic, middle child of eleven siblings. She managed to escape the chaos of her sometimes tumultuous childhood through idealizations and finding the good in her everyday reality. Leaving the house right after high school, Deni married young, divorced, and remarried. After twenty-two years of running a very successful business, having beautiful children, and the handsome husband, she had, what she says, was the perfect made-up life.Hitting midlife Deni knew she was still looking for something to fill the void she felt. Inadvertently, she discovered the Enneagram of Personality, and it spoke to her in a way that nothing had before. She learned that her always-sunny perspective on life was really her way of shielding herself from pain. Her own path to self-discovery became her side hustle and eventually the foundation for Deni's very successful career as an Enneagram coach and consultant to companies and individuals all over the country. Corporate Consciousness helps organizations and individuals achieve higher levels of emotional intelligence and create collaborative, effective work environments by offering models that improve internal communications and reinvigorate company culture.In this episode Deni and I discuss:Everyone has a core type (1-9) that develops by the time we are 7 years-old.
