#67 Teaching, Presence and Ethical Enneagram Work. Rania Hussein

In this episode of the Enneagram Insights Podcast, host Flemming Christensen speaks with Rania Hussain about the nature of teaching, the role of presence in learning, and how the Enneagram can be taught and used ethically for personal and relational growth. Their conversation explores what it truly means to teach beyond content delivery, the influence of culture on how we perceive teachers, and the importance of grounding Enneagram work in real human connection rather than stereotypes.   What You'll Hear in This Episode: ✔️ Teaching is more than content Rania explains how teaching always includes the teacher's personal experience and presence — making each teacher unique and shaping the learning process from the inside out.   ✔️ We are all teachers Rania discusses how, even without a formal title, we teach each other daily through how we show up, share ourselves, and influence others' discovery and growth.   ✔️ Cultural perspectives on teaching Talking about her experience in Egypt, Rania reflects on how cultural expectations shape the teacher–student dynamic and how global exposure is shifting these norms.   ✔️ Teaching the Enneagram ethically The Enneagram is a powerful tool, and Rania stresses that ethical teaching must focus on human connection, self-awareness, and mutual understanding — not stereotyping or manipulation.   ✔️ Foundations of Enneagram learning Rania recommends beginning with the three centers of intelligence (head, heart, body) as a fundamental structure that supports deeper engagement with Enneagram work.   ✔️ Maturity over knowledge Real teaching requires more than intellectual understanding. Rania highlights the importance of maturity, readiness, and integration before we can truly facilitate others' growth.   ✔️ A hope for the future Rania shares her wish that the Enneagram community continues to honour its original intention as a unifying tool that supports self-awareness and empathy globally.   Read more: https://www.flemmingchristensen.com/enneagram-insights-podcast-interview-with-rania-hussein.html
