​About this MIDWEEK practice

​What drives someone to say, “I’m fine with whatever” when choosing where to eat or to be so in tune with others’ perspectives that they struggle to know their own? Welcome to the world of Enneagram Type Nine, also known as “The Peacemaker.” Type Nines are fueled by a deep desire for harmony, inner calm, and avoiding conflict. But what’s really going on beneath the surface?

​In this MIDWEEK, we’ll take a closer look at the Enneagram Type Nine. You’ll learn what motivates this type, what they fear, and why their go-with-the-flow approach to life is both their superpower and their biggest hurdle. We’ll explore the incredible strengths that make Type Nines inclusive, accepting, and natural mediators, as well as their challenges with self-assertion, procrastination, and maintaining their own priorities amidst the needs of others.

​Whether you’re a Type Nine yourself, love someone who is, or just want to better understand this unique personality type, this session will leave you with insights and tools to appreciate their perspective and support their journey. Come discover what makes Type Nines tick.
