Short answer: Yes. You absolutely can. But making six figures and having a six-figure business are two very different things.

In this episode, you'll get the breakdown of some of the real math behind a $100K Enneagram business...from operating expenses and taxes to the number of workshops you may actually need to sell. You'll also hear why knowing the Enneagram, facilitating it well, and building a business around that work are three different skill sets.

This isn't meant to discourage you from building a profitable Enneagram business. It's meant to help you build one with your eyes open, realistic numbers, and a better plan.

Plus, a word of caution about income claims from certification and coaching programs, and why a good certification should make you a better practitioner, not promise you a particular financial outcome.

You Still Have to Build the Business...but you don't have to build the workshop from scratch.

If you want to bring the Enneagram into workplace teams, what kind of training or certification should you look for?

In this bonus episode of Bringing the Enneagram to Groups, you'll hear why Awareness to Action has become the Enneagram framework she recommends for coaches, facilitators, HR professionals, and leaders who want to use the Enneagram inside organizations.

After completing Levels 1, 2, and 3 plus Awareness to Action's Train-the-Trainer program, you'll hear about what made her go all-in on the framework at Enneagram MBA, from its workplace-tested approach and Instinctual Biases to its simplicity, credibility, and ongoing support for practitioners.

You'll also hear who this certification is best suited for, who may want to explore a different approach, and how the Enneagram MBA Commercial License Kit can help bridge the gap between learning the Enneagram and actually building a workshop around it.

Special offer: If you register for Awareness to Action Level 1, use code ATA300 to save $300 on the Enneagram MBA DIY Workshop Kit Commercial License.

Pricing is one of the questions coaches ask about most and one of the things almost nobody shares real numbers on.

In this episode, I'm sharing what I charge for my workshops now, and why, and considerations when it comes to session length, group size, and company size, plus how I handle travel fees and what to consider if you're just getting started.

In this episode:

• my real workshop numbers: what I charge by format, and why sharing actual figures beats vague "it depends" advice
• How price scales (and doesn't scale linearly) across 2-hour, half-day, and full-day sessions, plus follow-up/office-hours pricing
• Group size vs. company size, two different factors that affect what you charge
• Industry benchmarks to use as a loose reference point, not a hard rule
• Two ways to handle travel: a flat travel fee built into your quote vs. invoicing actual expenses afterward
• What to consider if you're just starting out; pricing for practice and testimonials without underpricing yourself long-term
• Key questions to ask yourself: What do you need to make? What's the actual impact of your workshop? Who are you serving, and what's their budget reality?

Every room has a few skeptics, and every so often, a truly disruptive attendee.

In this episode, I'll share how I address resistance before it starts, why certain types tend to show up skeptical, and what to actually do when someone pushes back hard enough to affect the whole room.

In this episode:

• Why type Threes are often the most resistant in the room, and how to address it before it becomes a problem
• A simple icebreaker question that names the skepticism up front and lowers the room's guard
• Positioning the Enneagram as a "problem resolution framework" (a nod to Mario Sikora) so skeptics know it's optional, not mandatory
• Two real stories of truly disruptive attendees, what I did (not necessarily the best way, but a way for you to learn from and prepare with)
• How to read the room and know when it's time to shift from patient facilitator to a firmer, more commanding presence
• What to do when the group's leader steps in (or doesn't)

Just because you closed your laptop doesn't mean the workshop is actually over :)

In this episode, we're talking about three things to do after every session to capture feedback, deliver ongoing value to your client, and turn a single workshop into repeat business, without being pushy.

In this episode:

• How to capture a post-workshop survey while energy is high, plus ways to boost response rates
• Why incentivizing feedback (mugs, books, giveaways) works and what to give based on your audience
• Turning good feedback into testimonials and using recurring themes to improve your presentation
• What goes into a post-workshop report for your host or leadership team, including an updated group map and analysis
• How to recommend meaningful next steps: Q&A follow-up sessions, implementation strategy sessions, individual typing, and more
• Why following up matters — and how to do it without feeling salesy

Books we recommend for a drawing:

Alright! You've prepped, you've planned, and now you're in the room.

In this episode, we're talking about what makes a workshop successful once it's underway: keeping content simple, building in real conversation, using a group map effectively, and managing the trickiest part of all (at least for me!)...time.

In this episode:

• The biggest mistake to avoid: trying to teach everything you know about the Enneagram in one session
• How to keep content simple enough that people walk away with real mastery, not overwhelm
• Framing your content for the specific audience in the room (teams, conferences, industry niches like educators)
• Why building in conversation throughout is where "the magic happens" and the exact questions to ask
• How to create and use a group map to spot clusters, gaps, and team dynamics
• Staying on time without losing the conversations that matter most
• When and how to bring in a co-presenter or room manager for larger groups
