The Practical Enneagram
Essence, personality, and The Fourth Way method of inner work, with Jason Stern
Show Notes

Writer, publisher, entrepreneur, and inner work veteran Jason Stern (Sexual 9), talks about essence, personality, and the inner work opportunities he offers in the Fourth Way method.  Along with the clarity I found in this conversation, I was touched and inspired by what Jason shared about why he writes. 

  • Jason's business in the world, and Chronogram magazine's reason for being [2.25]
  • What has motivated his seeking [8.52]
  • The role of psychological work and the difference between essence and personality work [11.25]
  • Jason's intention in/when writing the columns for Chronogram [17.35]
  • His thoughts on using a system (i.e. the Enneagram) to map essence [20.40]
  • An overview of Gurdjieff's philosophy [25.43]
  • The practical work happening during the inner work groups that Jason leads [30.20], along with an example of a practice.
