Become the next version of you: The Enneagram Revisited with Heather Warnke

Nov 18, 2025

This week, I’m joined by our newest Brilliant Balance coach and a certified Enneagram expert, Heather Warnke, for a conversation about the transformative power of the Enneagram. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the Enneagram or just curious about this buzzworthy tool, you’ll discover how finding your true Enneagram type can catalyze profound self-awareness, compassion, and growth.

We’ll break down what the Enneagram really is, why we sometimes mistype ourselves, and how uncovering your correct type can reshape the way you lead, love, and live. For years, I thought I knew my Enneagram type, until Heather walked me through a new assessment, and everything changed.

This episode offers a glimpse into how discovering your core motivations can impact every part of your life, and practical wisdom to embrace your essence. Plus, I’ll tell you how you can experience this next-level clarity for yourself with a unique opportunity to work directly with Heather and Brilliant Balance!
