On this episode of Is That Like a Thing, we’re back talking with Mallory Freidreck about how we can use the Enneagram to grapple with our grief in healthier ways. If you’ve listened to the podcast before, you know how much we LOVE this self-awareness tool and today we want to talk about how we use it just like that - as a TOOL. You will hear us say things like, “The enneagram is not the gospel” or “the enneagram is not what does the transformative work”. We want to share how WE have all used it in our walk with Christ, but we also wanted to bring in an expert to share how to discover your type, why it matters, and how it can help you to dive into how God has made all of us in His own image. 
Our guest, Mallory Freidreck,  is a certified Enneagram Coach/Consultant and Speaker. She lives in the Houston area with her husband, two kids and German Shepherd puppy. Mallory  graduated with a BA in Music from Sam Houston State University and it was there that she learned to use her voice, first as a musician, and eventually as a leader.
 
Mallory loves teaching and mentoring, and is passionate about authentic and grace-giving leadership. She has worn many leadership hats, including hospice chaplain, worship leader, piano teacher, wife and mom, church staff member, spiritual mentor, and Bible teacher. She loves helping people find their own voice, their inherent value, and their seat at the table. Mallory believes that there is something really beautiful in silencing the lies of the enemy so that you can live as the complete person God made you to be. 
 
That is why she loves the Enneagram so much. She says, “it is a tool I have used personally and professionally to live and lead freely. It often makes its way into conversations I have with people, and my favorite part is finding the Lord’s invitation to freedom for someone that comes from their unique Imago Dei, they way they were created to reflect of the image of God.” We are so excited to introduce you to our friend, Mallory.
