Catherine Bell
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Catherine Bell is an Enneagram teacher, facilitator, and the author of The Creative Moment: Awaken Your Creativity Through the Enneagram with Russ Hudson, two audiobooks from SoundsTrue on the Enneagram with Russ Hudson, and The Awakened Company. She has spent the last two decades guiding individuals, executives, groups, communities and teams toward deeper self-awareness, creative liberation, and the kind of inner freedom that makes authentic expression possible.
Catherine's work sits at the intersection of ancient wisdom and creative practice. She brings the Enneagram alive not as a static personality system, but as a dynamic map for navigating the inner landscape of inspiration, resistance, risk, and voice. Her teaching is grounded, compassionate, and deeply practical - whether you are a seasoned artist facing a creative block, a leader seeking innovation, or someone who has quietly believed you simply are not the creative type.
Drawing from contemplative traditions, somatic awareness, and the lived wisdom of the Enneagram, Catherine creates learning environments where insight becomes embodied and theory transforms into practice. Her approach invites participants to meet themselves exactly where they are, discover the unique gifts hidden within their patterns, and step into creative expression with courage and authenticity.
Catherine has presented at retreat centers, conferences, and workshops around the world. She is known for creating safe, transformative containers where profound insight and genuine joy coexist. Her work has been described as both deeply grounding and unexpectedly liberating: a rare combination that invites real change without forced effort.
Catherine has a degree in Sociology from Western, an MBA at Queens, is a Certified Yoga Instructor, and has many Enneagram Certifications. She has also led a secret 4th way group for years.
When she is not teaching or writing, Catherine can be found walking in nature, playing tennis, windsurfing, spending time with her sons and husband, writing poetry, exploring her own creative edges, and continuing the lifelong journey of becoming more fully human. She holds a deep belief that everyone is creative, and that the Enneagram is one of the most powerful tools available for remembering who we really are.
