The Enneagram is an ancient system of human development that shows us the limiting stories that keep us stuck in unhelpful patterns, and invites us into more expansive stories. For too long, conversations about the Enneagram and its personality types have been centered on and by whiteness. In The Enneagram for Black Liberation, certified Enneagram teacher and trained psychotherapist Chichi Agorom reclaims the Enneagram as a powerful tool for Black women to rediscover our wholeness and worth that existed long before systems of supremacy told us we weren't enough.

I saw myself in this book
Revisado: 08-14-23
I took the enneagram test when I was in undergrad a few years ago, but I didn't fully understand what that meant for me and my life. When I read Chi Chi's book, it made things so clear. I am a 7 and have a lot of work to do and I appreciate hearing her perspective. thank you for writing.

One of my Favorite books Ever
Revisado: 08-02-22
This was phenomenal. As a black woman, I felt these stories. I heard them and I hold space for all of those women as they shared their stories. Black women are just AMAZING. I saw myself in some of these stories. I learned of new experiences. This is going to be a book that I share everywhere

In my book, you will meet a little girl named Viola who ran from her past until she made a life-changing decision to stop running forever. This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose but also my voice in a world that didn’t always see me.

We are living in a world divided. Race and ethnicity, caste and color, gender and sexuality, class and education, religion and political party have all become demographic labels that reduce our differences to simplistic categories in which “we” are vehemently against “them”. But Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis’s own experience - of being the first female and first Black minister in her church’s history, of being in an interracial marriage, and of making peace with childhood abuse - illustrates that our human capacity for empathy and forgiveness is the key.

Revisado: 11-27-21
The different ways that Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis described love was so AMAZING. I love the concept of love and too see the way she talked about it AND gave examples from her own life was just beautiful. "The Spirit of Ubuntu" is what keep reminding myself about everyday. How can I Love Fiercely everyday? As a Black Queer Woman entering into ministry, this book touched my heart in so many ways. Thank you for chapter 6. it was my favorite. I recommend all people read this because I promise it was change you for the better

I loved it!
Revisado: 10-08-21
All of these negative comments are oblivious to great writing. I loved the main character. I understood her lack of self-love, and craving to be wanted. to be affirmed as she states. It is definitely not a book where you can know what is going to happen next. The writing was great!
