In this episode of The Real Enneagram, we had the pleasure of welcoming Beverly Casey, a graduate of the Scholars Program at the Institute for Conscious Being. Beverly, a mental health clinician from Cleburne County, shared her transformative journey with the Enneagram, which she began nearly 15 to 20 years ago.
As an Enneagram Type Two, Beverly discussed the challenges she faced before discovering the Enneagram, including feelings of chaos and the desperate need to please others. She candidly reflected on how her desire to help often stemmed from a place of need rather than genuine altruism, leading to burnout and strained relationships. However, through her work with Dr. Joe Howell and the Enneagram, she found a path to greater self-awareness and healing.
Beverly emphasized the importance of humility and grace in her life, noting how these virtues have allowed her to nurture her relationships without the expectation of receiving something in return. She also shared insights into how the Enneagram has positively impacted her marriage and family dynamics, providing a common language for understanding each other better.
In her professional role, Beverly has been able to guide other clinicians, fostering an environment of grace and calm in crisis situations. She highlighted the ripple effect of this work, as it not only benefits her colleagues but also the clients they serve.
Throughout our conversation, Beverly's passion for her community and her commitment to personal growth shone through. We discussed her creative pursuits, including writing and community theater, which have helped her reconnect with her joyful soul type.
As we wrapped up, it was clear that Beverly's journey exemplifies the profound impact of the Enneagram on personal and professional lives. We are grateful for her insights and the light she brings to her community. Thank you for joining us today, and we hope you found inspiration in Beverly's story.
