Dr. Deborah Egerton on How to Read Your Enneagram Chart EP 512

Passion Struck with John R. Miles

In today’s Passion Struck episode, we have the privilege of exploring the transformative world of the Enneagram with the brilliant Dr. Deborah Threadgill Egerton, affectionately known as Dr. E. As an internationally respected psychotherapist, certified Enneagram teacher, and a trailblazer in inclusion, diversity, equity, and anti-racism (IDEA), Dr. E brings her unique perspective to this conversation.

As the founder and president of Trinity Transition Consultants, Dr. E has spent over two decades helping individuals and organizations break free from limiting beliefs to embrace a more compassionate, connected way of living. Her latest book, Enneagram Made Easy, masterfully breaks down the nine distinct personality types—Idealist, Helper, Achiever, Individualist, Investigator, Loyalist, Enthusiast, Challenger, and Peacemaker—and how this powerful system can be used as a tool for personal growth, conflict resolution, and emotional intelligence.
