Episode Synopsis

In this episode of The Tyler Dickerhoof Show, host Tyler Dickerhoof sits down with bestselling author and Enneagram expert Ian Cron as he breaks down the surprising ways addiction shows up in our daily lives—from workaholism to perfectionism to success addiction.

Ian opens up about his personal journey, including his relapse during COVID, and shares how the 12 Steps offer a path to freedom—not just for addicts, but for anyone looking to break free from destructive habits. They also discuss how leadership, personal growth, and even the Enneagram tie into overcoming addictive patterns.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in unhealthy cycles or wondered why certain behaviors keep holding you back, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what addiction really means—and how to move toward true transformation.
