Episode Highlights:
[1:59] At first, Diana was extremely skeptical about something that ended up changing her life. “I almost had to pull over on the side of the road… it almost took my breath away”
[5:15] We hear how Diana started her Enneagram journey, and what helped her to understand her own Enneagram type. She has a great book recommendation for beginners.
[6:24] “It really helped me understand the why behind my behaviours.” Out of all the different types of personality tests, why is the Enneagram the one that Diana gravitated to?
[8:00] What is the difference between transparency and vulnerability? Diana shares her perspective on these two terms, and how her own personal Enneagram journey helped her to understand them.
[10:07] “Now I am actually able to respond, instead of react.” Learn how you too can achieve the freedom of leaving snap reactions in the past, and begin to respond how you truly want to, even in difficult situations. “The best part is when I see them get it.”
[12:58] Diana shares a recent coaching experience, and how it helped her client. “The relief that it gave to her, and the understanding that it gave to the other family members… it is powerful.”
[16:20] “I was trying to push her to be just like me.” Diana shares a personal experience of how understanding the Enneagram types has allowed her to be a better parent.
[17:53] “It’s so easy to overlook this.” If you are interested in learning more about loving yourself well, listen to Diana’s recommendations and advice for your next steps.
