323 - Your Enneagram Summer Plan with Amy Wicks
1w ago00:51:00Tap to summarizeI am so excited to share this conversation that I had with Amy Wicks. She is a certified faith-based enneagram coach, speaker, author, and the founder of Simply Wholehearted. 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. I hope you love the conversation as much as I did.
