Episode 244 This episode is extra special — Katie Ruley was one of my very first guests back when this podcast was audio-only, and now I get to sit across the table from her on video! Katie is the founder of EnLighten Enneagram, and in the five years since we last recorded, her coaching business has grown in ways neither of us could have predicted. We talk about the "scary yes" that started it all, what makes the Enneagram so different from every other personality assessment, and how understanding her family's wiring transformed Katie's marriage and her relationships with her four kids. Her reminder that "a better me is a better we" hit home for me — I think it will for you too. Connect with Katie: enlightenenneagram.com (she's also on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn — and yes, you can even text her; the number is on her website). Today's sponsors: Five Star Painting of Tulsa (fivestarpainting.com/tulsa) and Colonial Title (colonialtitle.com).
