Know Thyself. Figure Out Everyone Else.

We all have our patterns. The ways we react under pressure, the habits we fall back on, and the things we struggle to explain about ourselves. And sometimes, the people closest to us can feel like they're operating from a completely different playbook.

Join Sheena Symone Blackwell for an introduction to the Enneagram, a framework for understanding the motivations behind our personalities and how they shape the way we connect with others. With nine personality types, the Enneagram offers a new lens for understanding why we think, feel, and behave differently.

Drawing on over six years of studying the Enneagram, Sheena will guide us through an engaging lesson and interactive exercise. Together, we'll explore how recognizing our own patterns can help us build deeper intimacy, navigate relationships with greater understanding, and foster stronger connections within our communities.

Whether you're new to the Enneagram or already familiar with your type, this is an opportunity to look beyond first impressions and get curious about what makes ourselves and others tick.

Because knowing yourself is one thing. Understanding each other is where the real connection begins.
