Author Embodied Enneagram Handbook
I attended a presentation on parenting that Tracy gave at an International Enneagram Association Conference in Hong Kong. I really liked her materials and approach and now find Knowing me; knowing them written with Margaret and Jacqui quite readable and useful. The authors help parents discover and understand the high and low sides of their own parenting styles and offer nine keys to unlocking their child’s potential that can be used by all nine styles. I believe parents will find enlightening the insights and suggestions offered and I’m sure their children will be thankful their parents read this book.
