Most miscommunication doesn’t come from bad intentions—it comes from the gap between what makes sense to you as the speaker and how it lands in someone else’s ear. That gap creates hurt feelings, poor outcomes, and unnecessary conflict.
In Communication Intelligence & The Enneagram, a 90-minute workshop, Communication Coach Nicole Elias Seawell, will show you how to recognize those differences and consciously pause, pivot, and align so your message connects with those that matter most to you - professional and personal. You’ll discover how the Enneagram tool helps you to:
A clearer understanding of themselves through the Enneagram framework—insight into both their strengths and blind spots.
The ability to decode others’ communication styles, reducing frustration and misunderstandings in relationships.
Practical tools for navigating stress, conflict, and decision-making with greater ease.
Language and frameworks to talk about differences productively, turning them into strengths instead of friction points.
An immediately usable skill set that enriches their closest relationships, enhances professional collaborations, and creates more joyful day-to-day interactions.
The Enneagram is a framework of nine personality archetypes, each with a distinct way of seeing the world, communicating, and navigating stress. Think of it as a map of human motivation—it doesn’t put you in a box; it shows you the box you may already be in and gives you a way out.
Grounded in True Nature’s spirit of wholeness, this session is both practical and heart-centered—helping you build relationships that thrive at home, at work, and in community.
