Enneagram in Real Life

On this week’s episode of Enneagram IRL, we meet with Dr. Jerome Lubbe. Dr. Jerome is referred to as the “Patient Doctor” because it was his own quest for neurological well-being that led him to specialize in complex, unresolved neurological cases. His practice explores how functional neurology, neuroplasticity, and tools like the Enneagram can improve holistic well-being. Dr. Jerome created and released the first-ever neuroscience-based model of the Enneagram in his book, The Brain-Based Enneagram. Being a functional neurologist has shown him that the healing we once thought was impossible is actually possible. Neuroplasticity tells us that we are capable of change. If we understand the function of the brain, we can improve our way of life.Grab His Book:The Brain-Based Enneagram: You are not A number by Dr. Jerome D.

On this week’s episode of Enneagram IRL, we meet with Kate Hallock, a writer who loves taking non-fiction topics and turning them into engaging fiction. Her Debut novel, Nine Ways to Die: An Enneagram Murder Mystery, takes the concepts of the Enneagram, and displays them in the fun puzzle of a murder mystery. Kate lives in Peachtree City, Georgia where she drives a golf cart everywhere usually with at least one of her three daughters in tow, sometimes her husband and occasionally their scruffy dog. She spends most of her free time inventing worlds and characters and writing about them. Luckily, she can do a lot of it in her head while she runs carpool, shops for groceries, and endlessly sorts socks.Grab Kate's Book: Nine Ways to Die: An Enneagram Murder Mystery with Author Kate Hallock. 🔗 Connect with Kate!💻 www.katehallock.com📷Instagram: @katehallockwrites🔗 Connect with Steph!💻 https://ninetypes.co/📷 Instagram: @ninetypescoHere are the key takeaways:Kate’s introduction to the EnneagramHow Kate became a writer & exploring her research processTaking up space as a Type Nine writerThe development & writing process of her novel“What would cause a Nine to kill?”“What would cause a Three to kill?”Discussing the challenges and eases of writing about the types“Killing your Darlings” Resources mentioned in this episode:The Road Back to You by Ian CronJosh Radnor’s Shift from the Outside In (Typology Podcast)Scrivener Tool for writingTenfold More Wicked PodcastThe War of Art by Steven PressfieldOn Writing by Stephen KingIllustrated Enneagram by Deanna TalwalkarThe Enneagram of Emotional Intelligence by Scott AllenderJudy Bloom Masterclass Want to stay up to date with all things Nine Types Co?
