2. The Enneagram, Peacemakers, and Self-Awareness
03/12/20 • 24 min
Today, we’re going to do a brief overview of the Enneagram and how that relates to us as Type 9’s.
So what is the Enneagram anyway? Let me tell you, it’s much more than just a personality test! Even though it’s a “trendy” thing on social media right now, it’s been around for thousands of years. We’re going to dig into what the Enneagram reveals about our true essence and how that relates to our past, present, and future.
I’m going to give you a bird’s eye view of a type 9. And if you are new to the Enneagram and want an overview of the numbers, check out the Enneagram Type Descriptions download I put together for you, below.
We’ll also get to hear from a type 9 friend of mine (Helen) I met through our FB Peacemaker's Community. Helen has her own business as a Virtual Assistant (check her out on the web) where she helps female entrepreneurs handle various aspects of their businesses. Helen and I have a vulnerable discussion about her childhood as a Type 9 and how she has grown to understand how to best show up in the world.
And for a super fun bonus, enter my giveaway for a chance to win “The Essential Enneagram” and a leather-bound pocket-journal!

1. The Peacemaker's Podcast: Trailer
The Peacemaker's Podcast is all about showing up for the Enneagram Type 9. That's significant because many type nines have spent their lives denying their desires or being completely out of touch with what they want.
Showing up might look like acknowledging that your presence in the room matters or speaking out against something that goes against your values. It might mean actually learning what your values and opinions are for the first time in your life. Showing up means we are coming back to our core, our true essence as described in The Wisdom of the Enneagram by Russ Hudson and Don Richard Riso.
Utilizing the Enneagram (a personality typing system), we are going to cover the gamut of topics surrounding the Peacemaker Type Nine. We're going to dive into what it looks like to live in a "healthy" space as a nine. We'll also tackle the shadow sides of our number and learn together how to accept those things we can't change (and don't need to), and ways we can face and move beyond some of the patterns we've picked up along the way that are no longer serving us.
If you're new to the Enneagram and don't yet know your number, I'm going to point you in the direction of some resources to get you started. Just finding out you're a nine or have a stinking suspicion you might be? Been in the Enneagram Peacemaker crowd for a while and ready to grow deeper and join a community of others with similar inner worlds (internal motivators?). If so, you are in the right place!
I am pumped and honored that you are here and am ready to get this party started!

Showing up for MYSELF and for my fellow Peacemakers!

3. Interview with Rachel Pritz (9w8), Certified Enneagram Guide and Life Coach
Welcome back for Episode 3!
In today’s special interview episode, I’m talking with Rachel Pritz.
Rachel is a life coach who specializes in the Enneagram...so of course, we had to chat! She shares her journey to discovering her true type, connecting all the dots in her own life, and how she implements what she’s learned with her coaching clients. It is now the starting point in her coaching process, and she’s seen fantastic results as her clients grow by learning more about themselves.
We discuss perspective and the different definitions of growth. Moving forward and prioritizing the next right step can be hard for us as type 9’s. But we can realign our mindset by understanding our core fears and core desires! Rachel shares an actionable Priorities Worksheet (linked below) that can help us get honest with ourselves and discover what truly serves us and makes us the best version of ourselves. She also shares the value of researching all the types and how it affects our interactions with others.
I truly enjoyed my discussion with Rachel, and I know you will too!
