“In the midst of brokenness, we find the seeds of our greatest strength.” - Tami Imlay

PODCAST #11

Before we jump into the Enneagram journey, I want to share a quote that encapsulates the essence of our exploration: 'In the midst of brokenness, we find the seeds of our greatest strength.' These words reflect the profound truth that has guided my own journey and the mission of 'Her Restored Spirit' podcast.

As a widowed mom who has traversed the valleys of loss, I intimately understand the transformative power of embracing brokenness and finding strength in vulnerability. Through this podcast, my aim is to walk alongside you on your journey of restoration, offering insights, encouragement, and a guiding light towards reclaiming your restored spirit. 

Key Takeaways:

  1. Embrace brokenness as the catalyst for inner strength and growth.

  2. The Enneagram offers a unique lens to understand core motivations and foster compassion towards oneself and others.

  3. Restoration is a journey of reclaiming joy, purpose, and possibility amidst life's trials.

  4. Embrace the positive aspects of your personality type, even if they come with challenges, as they offer unique gifts and insights.

  5. Recognize that your core motivation drives your actions and desires, shaping your interactions and relationships.

  6. Understand the triads of the Enneagram (gut, heart, and head) and how they influence emotional struggles and desires.

JOURNAL PROMPT: Reflect on a moment of brokenness in your life and consider how it has shaped your inner strength and resilience. What seeds of growth have you discovered within that experience? Reflect on a recent situation where you noticed your core motivation influencing your actions or decisions. How did this awareness impact your response to the situation, and what insights did you gain about yourself?
