Your Personality-Your Passion-Your Purpose:
“Why do we do what we do? Nature and nurture have contributed to who we are, however, it is important to remember that we came into this world with a core personality template. We can explore that template and unlock the key to manifesting the best of who we are. Understanding our own behaviors are key to regaining the passion behind our purpose. We often see ourselves very differently from how others experience us. A human being's capacity to experience themselves as others do is quite limited. We do not all think alike. We do not all behave in the same way and we often come from different backgrounds and therefore, have very different perspectives. Working with the Enneagram can move your head from confusion to understanding, your heart from sorrow to relief, and your reactions from anger to empathy. Options and answers appear that we did not know were possible. This is an experience that will be a gift to you and to everyone that is part of your journey. Be prepared for many “Aha” moments.”
