As we deepen into this new year and decade, nothing is more important for humanity than awakening and integrating the power of love for transformation in our world.
It’s possible to have love become YOUR way of being... in all your relationships, in your vocation, and in all your actions in the world.
When Gandhi was serving as a force of love in the world, for example, he understood that love is a spiritual path, a practice, a way of life — and that love is our only true identity.
What is LOVE? Most of us assume we know the answer...
From the moment we’re born, though, society actually gives us many wrong ideas about love.
For instance, that love is an overwhelming powerful feeling... often sweeping and dramatic... or perhaps mushy and sentimental...
And so fear, attachment issues, wounds, and emotions are actually what many of us mistakenly describe as love.
What if you redefined LOVE as something you become — rather than something you feel or receive?
What if we all cultivated a deeper understanding of what real love is?
Not only would our lives change for the better — the world would change, too.
In an inspiring video course, renowned Enneagram teachers Robert Holden, Russ Hudson, and Jessica Dibb will guide you to follow the Enneagram’s wisdom for living AS love...
The ancient, multidimensional wisdom of the Enneagram will guide you to understand what love is — and what it’s not.
It reveals the nine ways each of us (unconsciously) distorts love, depending on our Enneagram type — usually from a fear-driven place of ego or separation.
The Enneagram shows you the way out of your delusions and helps you leave behind the suffering of isolation...
... and move into relaxed, abundant, creative, and authentic love, intimacy, and connection with ourselves — and with everyone.
Russ, Robert, and Jessica will draw upon inspiration and practices from the great wisdom traditions, saints and mystics, classic literature, philosophers and poets, leaders and activists, and theatre, music, and even cinema...
Together, you’ll explore what the power of embodied love and relatedness can do in your life — and for life on earth.
Jessica, Russ, and Robert will also walk you through the 3 Stages of Love:
As you’ll discover during this online course — when it comes to love, we’re just dipping our toes into the ocean of what’s possible for our world...
We feel honored that Robert Holden, Russ Hudson, and Jessica Dibb have all chosen to collaborate with The Shift Network to offer this exclusive online training.
Any program with just one of these renowned thought leaders launches to great anticipation and enthusiasm from students... and this opportunity to learn from all THREE acclaimed Enneagram and Consciousness teachers is incredibly rare...
Jessica, Russ, and Robert’s insights and pioneering work are helping us heal and awaken ourselves and our world.
In this 19-part transformational intensive, Robert, Russ, and Jessica will guide you through the fundamental body-mind-spirit skills and competencies you’ll need to BECOME love, moving into an abundant, authentic connection with yourself and our world.
This course will feature step-by-step teachings and experiential practices with Jessica, Robert, and Russ. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to live AS love using the wisdom of the Enneagram.
The shift from seeking love to becoming love is an immense transformational process. In this opening session, you’ll get grounded in the foundational principles you’ll need to embody the power of love for positively impacting your life and our world.
Get ready to start making a quantum shift in consciousness, exploring the 3 Stages of Love and finding out how to develop a way of being where you live from love in every moment.
In this module, you’ll:
Our “Basic Fear” is one of the primary blocks to our full awareness of love’s constant presence. In fact, the Basic Fear is what gives rise to every other fear, including the fear of love.
You’ll identify your own Basic Fear and meet it with loving awareness and acceptance of how it can help you undo every other block to love.
In this module, you’ll:
As you develop your awareness of your psyche, you see that it’s constantly running particular patterns. Both modern psychotherapy and the spiritual traditions behind the Enneagram recognize this, and work with these patterns. In some cases, there are beautiful correlations between the findings of both disciplines.
One such correlation comes from psychotherapy: the study of object relations. Our object-relations patterns form very early in our development, and our ego self is largely composed of these patterns.
As you’ll see, they form a significant root to how you address your needs, and offer enormous insight into your central relationship issues and possibilities. Like much else we encounter on the inner journey, we cannot get rid of these patterns. But with grounded, compassionate awareness of them, you can transform yours into direct paths to experience love.
In this module, you’ll:
All love must include self-love or else it is not love.
— Robert Holden
Your capacity to love others, and to love the world, is mirrored by your ability to love yourself. Why? Because it’s all the same love!
Here we’ll examine nine ways of self-love. We’ll look through the lens of the Enneagram at what self-love really means. We’ll explore why self-love can be so difficult and how we resist loving ourselves more. We’ll discuss how to stop objectifying ourselves in different ways. And we’ll each open more fully to being loved and being love in every moment.
In this module, you’ll:
You’ll explore the ubiquity of trauma and learn to reduce its stigma. We’ll look at some of the symptoms of various forms of trauma — seeing how they alienate us from groundedness in our bodies and hearts — and explore how each of the Enneagram types adopt strategies for coping with trauma.
As we examine types Eight through Two, you’ll understand how the Basic Fear of each type is exacerbated by trauma... you’ll find out how trauma leads each type to move toward its stress point... and you’ll explore ways to bring love and relief to triggers.
In this module, you’ll:
In this module, we’ll continue our exploration of trauma in the Enneagram types, looking at the remaining types, Three through Seven.
You’ll also explore experiential work for identifying and working with trauma patterns, and:
At this point in the course, you’ll be supported by your explorations and experiences of real love, and you’ll have a more profound and precise understanding of how trauma obstructs our capacity to give, receive, and be love.
Now you’ll have the opportunity to be guided with compassion and love itself to unwind your adaptive defense strategies around trauma, and to hold trauma in the field of love, healing, and transformation.
This will be a deeply moving and impactful, experiential session in which you’ll:
Love is natural and easy... until the first wound. And unfortunately, the first wound happens early. The need to forgive the unforgivable arises before we even know how to forgive.
Yet without forgiveness, we cannot love. Forgiveness is a quality of love that enables you to choose love when you’re afraid, wounded, in pain, or facing a dark night of the soul. It’s how you can raise yourself up when you stumble and fall. It’s how you can set yourself free from any hate or revenge.
In this class, we’ll explore how forgiveness relates specifically to each of the nine Ennea-points and Ennea-types.
You’ll discover:
We’ll explore the anatomy of childhood and social roles, and how they play out in adulthood — in our friendships, romances, and work and leadership roles.
Initially, our childhood roles are designed to help us adapt, fit in, be accepted, and love and be loved. But if you hold on too tight to your roles, they can become blocks to love and work against you in your actions and relationships.
This module will guide you to:
With a group of 50 people who committed to a decade of inner-work together, Russ and Jessica identified seven misinterpretations of love, 7 Veils of Love. These are pseudo-versions of love that obscure the true experience and embodiment of love.
In this module, you’ll:
We’ll continue our journey through the veils that keep us from directly seeing love in ourselves and exchanging it with others.
You’ll experience love as holding and responsive… dissolving false merging and isolation.
As you’ll discover, when you examine love as relatedness, your (unconscious) resistance can melt away.
There is only One, it is true. And while this One is infinite and capable of infinite manifestations — they’re all reflections of One, of Love.
Similarly, the nine clusters of the Enneagram form a beautiful map of varied-but-connected expressions. These Essence qualities manifest as particular gifts in each of us... and they support love in every aspect of our individual lives and our collective life.
In this sensitive, deep, and provocative module, you will:
Everyone has an inherent and effortless gift of authentic love that’s present even in pathological states. Using the Enneagram, you’ll become aware of these nine gifts and how each of us can cultivate the gifts we need to create authentic love.
As you’ll see, understanding the nine gifts deepens your maturity to recognize and choose real love, which profoundly impacts every aspect of your relationships. That is, in the presence of real love, you can transform your neural wiring around sexuality, self-preservation, and connection.
In this module, you’ll explore:
Whether you’re celibate, single, or partnered...
... the vulnerability, intensity, sensation, intimacy, and transcendence you can experience by being fully present to yourself and/or another in the sensuality of your body — from love, with love, and as love — is priceless.
The life force of sexuality is one of the most — if not the most — powerful aspects of human life, where you can experience profound and almost unimaginable coherence and oneness.
Yet the somatic, emotional, and cognitive defenses of your Enneagram type can severely limit your contact with this miraculous feature of being human... just as the gift of your Enneagram type can open you to the possibilities of embodied integration.
In this module, you’ll explore:
You’ll let love give rise to your purpose. We all feel most authentic and joyful when our vocation aligns with our purpose in life.
To help you live a life of love in which your vocation reflects your highest reasons for being, you’ll explore:
Every living creature has a unique and organic connection with the source of life. Whether we call that source Biochemistry, Life Force, Evolution, God, Goddess, Truth, Essence, the Universe, or the Divine, the exploration of it is sacred and necessary to the experience of being fully alive.
“God is love,” taught Rumi. “God is love,” said Jesus. “God is love,” affirmed Ramana Maharshi. “God is love,” sang Marvin Gaye.
In this class, you’ll encounter the mystical dimensions. Immersed in Robert and Jessica’s loving respect for your personal belief system, you’ll explore Love as the Mind of God, Love as the Heart of God, and Love as the Divine Energy that makes galaxies spin, bees pollinate, and us humans serve our planet.
Each type is motivated to contact one aspect of Essence. Thus, your type is a preference for one aspect of Source, and an avoidance of others. And by learning to relax out of your type’s view, you can experience all nine domains of Source... infusing your being with the depth, truth, mystery, and oneness we all long for.
In this module, you’ll take a journey to the sacred within you and explore:
Imagine a new generation of politicians, industry leaders, and directors of NGOs and service organizations who demonstrate love-based values — like service and compassion — and who are elected or chosen for their vision, courage, and strength of character.
Imagine economists who offer us love-based policies that eradicate poverty and hunger... medical doctors who teach their patients how to love and be loved... biologists who show us that the survival of our species depends on cooperation, not competition... architects and lawyers who help us build a society on love...
In this module, you’ll explore:
Actualizing love in action, service, activism, the arts — in all human endeavors, with all of life, in every situation, in every moment — is the quantum shift we need.
Having realizations of Real Love is wonderful, but how can we open to the magnitude of love as guidance for humanity to evolve from protecting our small selves to being a loving presence in the world?
As you’ll see, it’s an enormous shift when you live as love, and it profoundly changes the quality of what you contribute, expanding your impact.
In this module, you’ll:
Throughout this course, you’ll have tapped into your willingness, strength, perseverance, receptivity, and curiosity to take a radical and challenging journey... moving from the fear-based ego’s version of love, to being love in every moment of your life.
Living with the implications of being love is a journey of never-ending and profound change. In this culminating module, Robert, Jessica, and Russ will open a circle of sharing and inquiry with our whole class community.
Together, we’ll open to love’s wisdom that’s moving through each of our lives. We’ll listen to one another and ask the questions that have arisen as our perceptions of what love is and what is possible in our lives and for the world have evolved.
You’re invited to bring to the circle:
We’ll conclude with a culminating meditation to receive love even more deeply in this moment and throughout our lives.
In addition to Robert, Russ, and Jessica’s transformative 19-module virtual course, you’ll receive these powerful training sessions. These bonus gifts complement the course and promise to take your understanding and practice to an even deeper level.
Join Jessica and Russ as they encounter the frontiers of how you can be in contact with unity AND completely available to an infinite, ongoing, diverse creativity.
In this guided meditation breathwork practice, you’ll discover how breath takes you directly into integration, and these powerful truths:
Jessica will lead you on a journey to activate all nine gifts of the Enneagram types.
With audio and video formats, you can choose how you’ll take in these teachings so you can more readily embody the gifts of each breath — and each moment of your life.
One of the most important elements of a human life — and one which is often addressed in coaching and counseling — is the issue of purpose.
In this audio dialogue, Robert Holden and Russ Hudson will explore the sense of purpose and meaning using the perspectives of the nine Enneagram points to illuminate different aspects of it.
They’ll delve into the energetic parts each type plays, approaching this work with camaraderie, humor, and gentleness.
This original audio features several couples explaining how learning about their own type and their partner’s type transformed their relationships — helping them overcome seemingly intractable issues, and uncovering enhanced levels of communication and co-creativity.
The Instincts (or subtypes) — and the roles they play in our lives and in our development — are one of the “hottest” topics in the Enneagram field. This teaching from Russ and Jessica examines the rarely discussed topic of the role of the instincts in inner work.
If you’re serious about transforming the specific ways you’ve been pushing love away according to your Enneagram type, then you owe it to yourself, your loved ones, and our world to take this one-of-a-kind training.
You’ll get to welcome Robert Holden, Russ Hudson, AND Jessica Dibb as your teachers — for 19 sessions...

With Jessica and Russ’ expert holding of the space, I was able to grasp what happens to pull me away from my experience of presence, as well as the operation of all of the nine Enneagram energies in me. Puzzles that I had been pondering for years about my relationship to receiving were resolved, as I experienced the energy of my “missing piece.” The term “life-changing” is used a lot I know. But I can’t think of another one that more accurately describes my experience.
