A panel of parents of young children (infants to third graders) will share the insights they have gained through Enneagram-focused parenting classes taught by Karen and Heather. The workshop will open with an overview of the EnneaGuide to Parenting syllabus and the coaching and personal development methodology used in the training adapted from Integral Coaching. They will then present highlights of the insights and results from the parent participants.
During the panel discussion, parents will relate their stories about how their Enneagram type influences their innate approach to parenting, what is easy and challenging for them as parents, and what parent/child interactions particularly push their buttons and evoke their best. They will also describe the ways in which they have learned to observe their reactivity triggers and how “catching themselves in the act” has helped to loosen their habitual responses. Finally, they will share stories about learning to appreciate the parenting styles of the other Enneagram types, especially as it relates to co-parenting with their spouse and learning from other parents.

She has an MBA and has completed Ginger LapidBogda’s Enneagram in Business Train-the-Trainers program.
