Awaken Your Inner Wisdom
The Enneagram Sage Approach to Leadership and Life
As an Enneagram professional specializing in leadership development and relationship guidance, I’m passionate about helping people uncover their true strengths, break free from limiting patterns, and lead with authenticity and purpose. With over 30 years of experience as a leader in healthcare, I’ve guided high-performing teams and cultivated cultures of trust, growth, and excellence. Human connection has always been at the heart of my work. As a Type Two, I’m naturally attuned to the needs of others—a trait that shaped my leadership style and fuels my commitment to mentoring with intention, warmth, and care.
Throughout my career, I’ve learned that the most transformative growth happens not just in what we do but in how we understand ourselves and show up for others. Self-awareness is the foundation of great leadership and healthier relationships. The Enneagram has been a “golden key” in my journey—a powerful tool that helps us make sense of our inner world, understand our strengths and blind spots, and build deeper emotional intelligence and empathy.
To provide the highest level of support, I’ve completed over 600 hours of immersive training with the Chestnut Paes Enneagram Academy, becoming a CP Certified Professional Enneagram Coach, learning directly from world-renowned experts Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes. This rigorous program has refined my ability to guide clients in developing clarity, confidence, and connection in both their professional and personal lives.
My approach to coaching is grounded in real-world experience. I know what it’s like to navigate the complexities of leadership while holding the responsibility of guiding others. I’ve dedicated my career to mentoring leaders and equipping them with Enneagram-informed tools to communicate more effectively, navigate conflict with confidence, and cultivate teams that thrive.
The Enneagram has also profoundly impacted my personal life. Like many Type Twos, I once believed that if I gave and achieved enough, I’d finally be enough. But the Enneagram taught me that my worth isn’t tied to how much I can do for others—it’s something I’ve always had. That journey toward self-awareness, compassion, and freedom is ongoing, and it’s one I walk alongside my clients every day.
Whether you’re stepping into a new leadership role, strengthening your relationships, or simply seeking personal growth, I’m here to support you as you step into the fullness of who you are. Let’s discover your truth, uncover your unique strengths, and build a life and career aligned with your deepest values.
Warmly,
