“I met Annie in a lady’s bible study and was drawn to her compassion. When she talked about her personal faith journey, I knew she experienced a deeper level of understanding scripture and Jesus’s teaching than most of us in the room. I had also heard of the Enneagram from my husband, who quoted “Learn all you can about God and learn all you can about yourself and then give all you know about yourself to God”. Before we met for my first coaching session, Annie unlocked my Enneagram type and I was excited to hear what she had discovered and why.
My favorite part about working with Annie is that I can never predict what questions she is going to ask. Every step of self-discovery is a revelation about my own motivations and insecurities. I feel encouraged and for the first time in my life, I can see the transforming power of seeking Christ.
The biggest realization about myself is that I withdraw from others when stressed and enjoy spending time thinking alone. This has been a game changer in understanding relationships at work and at home. My husband and I have had a revival in our marriage because we are more empathetic to each other and love each other better.
The biggest surprise that was revealed while working with Annie is that unconscious childhood messages did impact my adult self and relationships.
I would recommend having Annie as an personal coach because she will help you become your best self.”
“I would recommend Annie to any friend of any age. She came recommended to me from older female family members who found a new way of understanding themselves and I saw so much growth in them that I was eager to experience for myself! I just started my career and am starting a family and Annie and I worked on tools to help better understand the people I work with and the people closest to me. Annie taught me how to consider other peoples motivations and feelings and was patient and understanding with me when I struggled to understand my own. Annie considers her client's personalities and personally tailors the experience to the person she is working with. I will continue to sing her praises and work with her for years to come.”

“I find that learning about the Enneagram with Annie was extremely helpful. It helps to know how you function when you are feeling good or bad. It's also nice to have a coach to help you navigate your way to be the best version of yourself. I highly recommend this coaching program!”

“Working with Annie has been such a gift. She is one of the most kind, empathetic, delightful, wise, and encouraging people I know. She pours her heart into her work, and makes her clients feel known and cared for.
As a mom of two elementary kids, I found myself struggling to make sense of my purpose, direction, and next steps. I had learned quite a bit about the Enneagram before, but Annie's wisdom and guidance brought new light and understanding. She helped me to find my strengths and passions again, and reminded me to choose self-compassion in the process. I always looked forward to our time together, and appreciated the questions and simple assignments she gave me to continue learning and growing between sessions. I know doing my own work was, and is, vital to being the mother I want to be. I am so grateful for Annie's coaching that helped me get to a place where I feel more joy, direction, and peace. Guaranteed, you will laugh and cry together!”

“I had done some enneagram work previously and was familiar with the concepts and found them helpful. Going through a difficult period in family relationships, I needed help. I needed more tools to understand myself and the people I care about and a family member suggested working with Annie as we are the same type. My favorite part of working with Annie is that she can relate so well to me, being the same type and that she is so encouraging. Also, having the Christian perspective is really important to me.
My biggest transformation or realization - how common certain things I knew about myself are across all nines. And delving into the true meaning of sloth/indolence for me as a 9 and how sloth has impacted me and held me back all of my life. A few things that surprised me, along with learning about the impact of sloth, was learning about all the other types and how that helps my relationships with them. And that the goal of this work is to channel behaviors from other types as needed to be your best self, so that it's not clear to an outsider what type you are.
I would recommend working with Annie to anyone - individuals, groups, couples, etc. She is so helpful, encouraging, knowledgeable and has a knack for understanding what words are helpful in the moment.”

“Annie is a professional with a passion for this work. She comes with research, practice and experience, but what sets her apart from other Enneagram coaches is her authentic care and investment in who I am as a person and my holistic well-being. She is in it with me through the ups and downs of the inner-work journey!
I wasn't sure exactly how this intentional work around the Enneagram would help me in my life and work. But it has given me very practical tools and frameworks to assess my relationships, improve communication and understand the complex factors that drive my motivations.
My favorite part of working together has been Annie's love, care, humor and trust in the process. I have benefitted so much from her natural gifts in coaching and teaching.
Annie is an excellent one-on-one Enneagram coach and she has been an asset for our work team as well! We are a team of 25 non-profit grant professionals. Her Enneagram training has given us language and tools to be more effective and integrated as we work toward our goals and objectives as an organization, which include cultural and relational competencies.”
