What is the Enneagram?

Enneagram is a Greek word; “ennea” means nine and “gram” means symbol or drawing. It is a tool created over thousands of years that combines personality traits and their passions with the enneagram symbol. The enneagram symbol has nine points that are associated with nine different core motivations composed of fears, desires, weaknesses, and longings. Each number has a primary passion that it struggles with most. We believe, from those we have trained under and in our personal experience, that you are born your number and you will remain that type your whole life.

Why is Enneagram coaching beneficial?

The Enneagram provides clarity into the why behind our behavior, inviting you to examine yourself in a non-judgmental way. Let’s face it: relationships are a big part of every aspect of our lives, but sometimes we get stuck in unhelpful or possible unhealthy patterns with the people we do life with most. Our coaching provides guidance and clarity to help you understand the motivation behind your actions and reactions and how that impacts the way you move through life. While the Enneagram may be just one tool, we believe it’s immensely helpful when used to understand yourself more fully and to build better communication with others, leading to stronger relationships and personal transformation.

    For me, my introduction to the Enneagram started like a personality quiz. It was fun and almost felt like reading my horoscope, but the accuracy and connection I felt with the initial description prompted me to do further reading and discovery. I found so many answers to the why behind my actions and behavioral patterns. I participated in a yearlong Enneagram Cohort with Suzanne Stabile and have a Your Enneagram Coach Master Class Certification. I’m also a Your Enneagram EIP Endorsed Coach.
