Working with the Shadow Mini-Course
While understanding our Enneagram type helps us understand our energy exchanges better, shadow integration allows us to bring our hidden parts into our consciousness. These are often our repressed or denied parts of the Self and when we bring these into our consciousness, we can bring to heal and integrate them into our whole self.
This leads to:
Demistifying why you react negatively to certain types of people
Learning how to have greater compassion for your perceived flaws or undesirable traits
Discerning how to respond more productively in in situations where people/events trigger your fight, flight or freeze response
Deepening compassion for yourself or others for perceived faults or deficits
In this 45-minute mini-course, you’ll explore the psychological shadow from a Jungian and Campbell perspective and how it relates to psychological growth and spiritual integration.
That way you can understand and integrate all of your parts, light and dark, to unlock your full potential.

Hi, we’re Sterlin Mosley Ph.D and Aaron Addonizio M.H.R, M.P.A.
We’ve been studying the enneagram for 21 years. First attending Enneagram courses from Tom Condon, Russ Hudson, Helen Palmer, David Daniels and others and then we began attending Enneagram conferences in 2007 where we met Katherine Fauvre. Sterlin became Katherine’s protégé around the same time and began doing bi-weekly one-on-one coaching to further his understanding of both the Enneagram and his own processes.
In our Master’s in Counseling program, Sterlin and Aaron researched the enneagram personality types, psychopathology and diagnosis, which took us deeper into the work of Claudio Naranjo’s.
From there, we started our first Enneagram business in 2008 where we delivered trainings to counselors and psychotherapists for CEU credits and then began delivering online trainings and classes the same year.
In 2014, we both became certified teachers and coaches with Katherine Fauvre of Katherine Fauvre Consulting. Sterlin completed his PhD in Communication from the University of Oklahoma in 2014 where he conducted several studies on the Enneagram, self-presentation and intrapersonal communication.
Until 2021, Aaron worked for several years as Katherine Fauvre’s office manager. In addition to Aaron’s professional counseling education she received a Master’s in Public Administration in Nonprofit Management.
In addition to Empathy Architects, which we founded in 2019 Sterlin is an Assistant Professor at The University of Oklahoma where he teaches various courses in the Human Relations and Women’s and Gender Studies departments. Sterlin teaches an undergraduate level course on Personality (which is essentially a semester-long course on the Enneagram and other systems such as MBTI, the Big Five, Jungian Archetypes, multiple intelligences, microexpressions, etc). Together, we have delivered countless trainings, workshops and courses.
We both share a love of systems and have a particular aptitude for synthesizing those systems in order to foster greater self and other awareness with the aim of creating greater compassion and empathy for everyone.
