illuminating the inner landscape: a Spring 2026 Enneagram Series

Second Session in our Four-Part Spring Series
Whether you join us for a single gathering or the full four-month journey, you’ll gain practical insights, deepen your self-understanding, and connect with others in our Enneagram community.

  • Topic: What Exactly are the Passions? The Emotional Drivers that Cloud our Clarity
  • Date: Monday, March 9, 2026
  • Time: 6:30-8:30pm CST
  • Location: Carondelet Center, 1890 Randolph Avenue, St. Paul, MN 55105
  • Presenter: Kate Jackson, Enneagram Type 9 (she/her)

This spring, we invite you to explore the deeper patterns that shape our Enneagram types through a four-part monthly series designed to expand awareness, insight, and connection. We frequently reference concepts like passion, fixation, focus of attention, and defense strategy—but what do these truly look like in our day-to-day lives? And how do they influence our relationships, our work, and our overall well-being?

To guide our exploration, we’ll use the powerful metaphor of Johari’s Window, a framework that helps illuminate how we see ourselves—and how we are seen by others.

Johari’s Window includes four quadrants:

  • The Open Area – what is known to both self and others
  • The Blind Area – what others notice that we may not
  • The Hidden Area – what we know but keep private
  • The Unknown Area – aspects of ourselves still waiting to emerge

Each monthly session will dive into one of the four core elements of the Enneagram through this lens, offering a blend of learning, reflection, and community engagement.

To support different learning styles and facilitation approaches, each month may incorporate a mix of type panels, experiential activities, and large or small group processes.

March Series Topic: 
What Exactly are the Passions? The Emotional Drivers That Cloud Our Clarity

Does a Type 9 clean her house because it needs cleaning or because she is avoiding something else that needs attention? Does a Type 2 offer help to a friend in need for pure altruistic means, or is he doing so to feel a sense of importance?

Without awareness of our passions, the emotional motivations of our types, we behave in ways that are misaligned with our true needs and are left feeling dissatisfied without knowing why. Join us as we shed light on the subtle ways our passions operate unconsciously through panels and small group discussion and discover ways to support new awareness for greater clarity and well-being.

In-person events are not recorded.

Presenter Bio

Kate Jackson is a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach and Certified Enneagram Practitioner. She became an integrative health and wellbeing coach after recognizing the limitations of conventional medicine, which often treats symptoms rather than root causes.

Kate was introduced to the Enneagram in 2015 when Anne Mureé, co-founder of the Minnesota chapter of the International Enneagram Association, taught a class during her coaching program. Since then, the Enneagram has become a core framework in her life and work—supporting her own chronic health journey and serving as an ongoing guide for daily wellbeing.

Kate is the owner of Enso Wellbeing Coaching and a Certified Narrative Enneagram Teacher. Drawing on her personal experience with Stage 4 cancer and the Enneagram system, she helps clients cultivate awareness and agency as essential elements of healing. In 2025, Kate completed her certification in sound healing and occasionally tests instruments on her new-ish rescue puppy, Rafa, with mixed (and patient) results.
