The Enneagram of the Holy Ideas
Just as the Gut Center holds the Instincts and the Heart Center holds the Virtues and Vices, the Head Center holds the Holy Ideas and Fixations. We are continually living out of all three centers whether we are aware of it or not. As our awareness around these centers increase, we are invited to notice where ego has led us, and what truth calls us back to.
A Small Group
The nine Holy Ideas within the Enneagram are certainly challenging, even unsettling, but some would say they offer us freedom that is real freedom. Each Idea is connected to a particular Enneagram type which can grasp the truth held within. Over 20 ninety-minute sessions we explore each of the nine slowly and honestly, unafraid to work with our resistance in order to make real movement forward. We use Facets of Unity, The Enneagram of Holy Ideas, by A.H. Almaas to guide and support us.

Enneagram and Work
In any organization it is the employee who delivers the service or product; investing in employees will result in the improvement of both. A very effective way to invest is by offering self-awareness training which invites employees to see themselves and understand how they impact their work environment. The Enneagram is an effective tool for creating this self-awareness and general emotional intelligence in employees. This awareness has impact beyond the improvements within a team and the organization extending to improvements in both social and family relationships. Through this workshop, your organization will gain self-awareness, increased teamwork, and retention.
Module One
This 4-hour overview includes an introduction to awareness and personality development and an overview of the nine Enneagram types. For effective use of knowledge gained through this introduction, Module 2 is highly encouraged.
Module Two
Using the foundation of Module One, we will take a deeper look at each of the nine types using the information to map out improved personal and team interactions.
Ongoing Consultation
This offering can be used following Module One or Module Two. An organization can invite any of its employees to interact with the information of the Enneagram as they explore how to approach issues and people differently.
Individual Coaching
One cannot lead where one has not been. Leadership has a trickle-down effect. Investing in the leadership of any organization has dividends throughout the organization as a whole. Individual coaching or supervision is available for executives or middle management to address specific issues of concern and for ongoing development.

Grit to Great
Enneagram training for people in generational poverty
Generational poverty is another way of saying generational lack of opportunity. Employment has been seen as a way out of poverty, a way toward opportunity. While taking on the training for the needed soft and hard skills it is also important that those seeking to succeed first discover their natural gifts and build the internal infrastructure needed to support the addition of the soft and hard skills.
Module One
This 12-hour workshop is designed for those who have historically received far too little positive feedback or opportunity in experiencing themselves in positive and life-giving ways. Using the Enneagram, participants will identify both the natural gifts they possess which are needed in the world, and the defensive strategies they have developed over time to protect themselves. Understanding both will help as they differently navigate the world around them leading to more opportunity and more success.
Module Two
Using the self-awareness from Module One, ongoing discussions and insights into what positively and negatively drives interactions are explored in a small group setting resulting in corrections and reinforcements.

Enneagram and Students
The call to educate our students is broad and includes how they conduct themselves in the world. Adding self-awareness to a quality education helps students go the distance. The Enneagram is an effective tool for developing this needed self-awareness. This workshop is designed for high school and college aged students who want to grow in self-awareness and understanding about both the gifts they bring and the defensive strategies they have developed and why. With this greater awareness comes greater options as to how to live out their best self.

Wine and Enneagram: In Vino Veritas
Observing human interaction can intrigue us, frustrate us, and even delight us. However, this observation affects you, it can be helpful to learn that there is rhyme and reason to all we observe. Exploring the Enneagram is a particularly useful way to make this rhyme and reason clear. An evening of Wine and Enneagram allows participants to explore the nine different personality styles in the company of friends and family.
Module One
Up to 12 friends can join to explore the Enneagram, powered by spirits: in vino veritas! (“In wine there is truth.”). This informal gathering is an opportunity to grow in self-awareness with friends, colleagues, and family.
Module Two
Awareness gained through an introduction to Enneagram is often followed by a curiosity to explore further. Additional training is available for participants who want to dig deeper and understand more about their type and the types of those around them.

Out of Judgement, Into Love Through the Enneagram
The Enneagram invites us to see what is happening inside of us and then outside of us. This is only possible through the lens of Love. Without being aware, we more often use the lens of judgment which impedes our seeing accurately. In this workshop we will explore and wrestle with Love and Judgment as competing forces that influence the degree to which we are able to be self-aware.
Module One
This two-hour session requires participants to have a prior overview of the Enneagram. The powerful dynamic of judgement will be made clear and the counter-offering of Love will be explored.
