Are you a fan of personality tests? These types of tests can help you learn more about yourself, and in turn, support how you navigate your relationship with yourself and others. The Enneagram is a deep dive personality test that helps you do just that by offering nine different perspectives of the world. Today, I am chatting with Amy Wicks who works with Enneagram tests to help mothers.
Amy Wicks is a faith-based Enneagram Coach, speaker, and writer who lives in Kansas City with her tree-climbing arborist-husband and three kids who can be found on the limbs of a tree, themselves.
She is the voice of the weekly Simply Wholehearted Podcast and is the author of Should Christians Use the Enneagram (2021). She loves giving her time to help female entrepreneurs create life rhythms and a business they love with the help of the Enneagram!
In this episode we talk about each of the personality types, how it can make you more self-aware, the way it applies to motherhood, and how to raise your kids with the Enneagram in mind.

- Amy’s story of being involved with Enneagram.
- An overview of what the enneagram is and how it can be helpful for your relationship with yourself and others.
