Being human is a messy endeavor. Learning about ourselves can be the hardest and most life giving work we do. Many times, we feel we have to do this ourselves. However, there are tools designed to help us understand ourselves better. There are guides. This is not a DIY life.
The Enneagram is one tool that helps us become curious about how we can see and love ourselves in a more meaningful way. This self-discovery allows us to more lovingly accept others.
This week, join us as we talk with Beth McCord, Enneagram expert, speaker, and teacher. She combines spirit and grace with the Enneagram tool to help people live and lead with more empathy. She has witnessed transformative and profound results in her work.
Beth is the founder and owner of Your Enneagram Coach.
She says, “When you start to see people from their personality lens, you realize you see the world differently and it allows you to have compassion and grace.” (5:55)
Listen and learn about how you can use the Enneagram as a practical and spiritual tool for gaining more clarity and understanding in your life, parenting, marriage, and relationships, both at work and at home.
The Enneagram helps us release the shame we have around not being perfect. It allows us to feel God’s grace so He can work in us and through us and lead us to our purpose.
Here’s what we connect on:
- What is the Enneagram, why it is valuable for relationships, parenting, living, and leading, and how we can use it as a tool to become our best reflection of God (3:05)
- Beth’s personal story of how the Enneagram came into her life and how it can be integrated into any family life (8:11)
- Exhibiting empathy: treating ourselves with compassion and grace so that we can do the same for others (18:10)
- Learning how to fully surrender to God and step into our gifts with a bigger sense of trust (20:49)
