For Individuals - Alchemy Works

Whether for leadership honing or spiritual direction, Sandra’s sessions begin with a Presence practice and continue with questions and deep listening. If you want to make a shift, she works with the understanding of Embodied Transformation which has four key components (from the School of Noetic Science, California):

an intention,
paying attention to the intention,
repetition of the strategies for paying attention,
and guidance/support.

Additionally, listening to an episode of an interview with someone of your type can be eye opening and supportive. Heart of the Enneagram Podcast offers interviews with all nine types, interviews of couples (intimate, workplace, friendship and sisters) as well as an exploration of the myths pertaining to the Enneagram.

What Clients Have to Say...

"Our team here at our climate strategy think tank has loved our consulting and training from Sandra. Over the past eight years, she’s helped me, new hires, pairs of coworkers, and our full executive team boost our power to collaborate and deliver. I find myself applying several breakthrough insights from Sandra most every week and hear similar results from others at Climate Interactive. Beyond the clear insights, we’ve also benefitted from the ways that Sandra has helped us build a pervasive culture of self reflection, personal responsibility, and mutual care. She operates that way and it is infectious.”
