She helps women, mamas, and entrepreneurs use the enneagram, but she combines it with a faith-based perspective. She encourages you to make wholehearted rhythms to overcome burnout, reduce overwhelm and live according to your design. She also created the Wholehearted Summer Workshop, which is what we're talking about today: how to plan a summer where you and your family can thrive.
