Often we wonder what we've carried forth from childhood in our Enneagram and relationship work, as well as wonder what we may have incidentally left behind in our quest for pleasing our family of origin. Today on this special episode with marriage and family therapist (and likely one of your fave Instagram therapy accounts) Michael Shahan, we take a tour around the Enneagram to walk through the Enneagram inner child theory derived from Sandra Maitri and others, also called the Soul Child theory. We do this to make sure you're running on all healthy cylinders as much as possible with your relationship growth, and we talk through ways you can do this work with your spouse or partner, too. No matter your type, join us for this deep dive into growth for every personality!   Watch on YouTube!   Michael's website   Michael's poyvagal courses    Michael's heart-mind-body Costa Rica trip   Follow Michael's Instagram here!   Head on over to enneagramandmarriage.com to check out all of our Enneagram & Marriage freebies and resources!
