The Enneagram for Troubled Times- 10 week webinar
Those familiar with the Enneagram know what a powerful tool for self-discovery and insight it can be. This course will give seasoned Enneagram explorers the opportunity to take a deep dive and develop new perspectives about the use of this medium in spiritual direction and other helping professions, while honing new skills and approaches to their practice and calling.
It is in these particularly trying times that we most need revolutionary tools like the Enneagram to help us shift our perspectives so that the Beyond can permeate us, and “God can get in,” as Fr. Richard notes. Walking together through this Global Dark Night of the Soul, we can take stock of our collective spiritual toolbox. And by practicing with the innovative and versatile Enneagram, spiritual directors and companions can continue to benefit from its ageless wisdom.
This unique online course offering from SDI offers spiritual directors and companions the opportunity to connect with peers who are on the leading edge of the Enneagram field. Explore the session presenters below! Attendees will have the opportunity to interact with the presenters, receiving encouragement and inspiration for their own practice

Introduction to the Enneagram Workshop
Come learn about the Enneagram for the first time, or brush up on your knowledge! Anyone age 16+ is welcome.
Journeying With the Enneagram
Journeying With the Enneagram is a 5-month experiential Enneagram course, for your personal transformation, supported by intentional community. In this course, you will apply the wisdom of the Enneagram to your everyday life, learning to get in touch with your True Self. The result of doing this work together is deeper understanding and compassion for self and others, and an improved relationship with yourself, others and your spiritual life. By committing to show up with willingness and honesty each week, you will shed habitual patterns of suffering through the cultivation of contact with supportive and loving mindfulness, aka “Presence.”
Deepening With the Enneagram
It is possible to be free from the persecutions of our personality, and this course has been developed for this exact reason: to move us up the Levels of Development so that we can find more freedom, joy and ease in our lives, and let go of stress and suffering.
This course is for people who already have a firm foundation in Enneagram knowledge.
Book Launch Party for "Blessing My Demons"
I am publishing my first book, and I'd love to have you come celebrate with me! Bring along your book (purchased on Amazon) to be signed!
This book has been a long time coming, and I'm so proud of how it turned out! Blessing My Demons: How to Name, Tame & Transform Your Inner Critic is a teaching memoir that will help you stop negative thinking, remove barriers to self confidence and love, and provide you with practical tools to help heal your relationship with the Inner Critic's voices of shame, fear, doubt, and rage.
Journeying With the Enneagram Course
In the fall, I will be teaching a five-month course called Journeying With the Enneagram. I have intentionally designed this course to integrate the Enneagram and Presence to bring about real and sustainable change into your life. I have taught this course to four different cohorts, and almost every participant decided to immediately take the course again. Some people even took it three times because it was so impactful to have the ongoing accountability in a consistent and dedicated community, to continue to deepen their Enneagram knowledge, and to deepen their capacities for Presence, kindness, self compassion, curiosity, and ability to learn to Let Go and live with more ease and freedom from their personality. I've seen drastic changes in many people and I really believe in the particular format of this course to change people's lives.

“I’ve taken numerous intro to enneagram workshops with Chelsea and each time, I come away with brand new learning about my default operating system and the power of this tool. Chelsea is an engaging, wise, and nimble teacher. She teaches to the humans in the room! I leave her workshops with simple tools to use that make a big difference in my daily life. It’s hard to learn new ways, and it’s worth it.”

Taming and Nurturing our Instinctual Drives (Working with the Enneagram Subtypes)
All humans have three primary instincts that keep us alive: self preservation, sexual and social. They are all beautiful and necessary, but the problem is that they become distorted by our personality. We each have an imbalance within these three instincts that leads us to be biased towards one and to repress another, and this leads to all sorts of chaos in our lives! Almost every relationship “problem” we encounter (with family, spouse, coworkers, etc) stems from a misunderstanding of our instincts.
In this workshop, we will learn the intricacies of each of these instinctual drives and why they matter to build flourishing relationships, physical health, purpose and spiritual development. You will learn practical tools to tame your over-dominant instinct, nurture your neglected instinct, and work with your inner critic beliefs that get in the way of real and sustainable change.
Bring a friend or your partner! This workshop is quite fun!

Balancing our Centers: Tapping into the Intelligence of our Head, Heart and Body
There’s so much more to balancing our three Centers than simply being aware of thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations. A whole deeper layer of self awareness and healing awaits! Depending on our Enneagram Type, we overdo one Center, and repress another. It is this imbalance that keeps us under-resourced from finding the vitality, intuition, belonging, love and inner guidance that we desperately crave.
This course will help you connect with the deep intelligence of each of your three Centers, remove blocks to connecting with them, and discover the spiritual benefits of anger, fear and sadness locked within each Center.
When: Four Tuesdays April 4, 11, 18, 25
Time: 6:30-8:00pm CST
Where: Zoom
Cost: $90 for Early Bird registration before March 21st. $110 after
