Christine Lindholt Wittusen works as a coach, speaker and workshop facilitator, focusing on interpersonal relationships, communication and personal development. Understanding people, personality and relationships is among her greatest passions in life.
After completing her BA of communications and Masters of PR in the US, she worked several years in the communication field before realizing she needed to work more directly with people. She got her first coach certification in 2009.
Since then she has completed a variety of certifications and courses within coaching, therapy and public speaking, while working as a coach. Christine coaches both individuals and couples, and offers a variety of workshops and talks for companies and teams.
She strongly believes that the key to better relationships is a deeper understanding of ourselves and others. By exploring our thought- and behavioral patterns, our deepest fears and longings, we can improve our relationships with ourselves and others.
In this episode, Christine and I explore the questions and issues around the following:
- How does self awareness, knowing yourself on a deeper level, make you more resilient?
- How do we know if we lack self awareness?
- What is the enneagram tool?
- What are some ways we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves, become more self-aware?
- What are triggers? How does knowing about them empower us?
- How is vulnerability a super power?
- How can understanding yourself improve your relationships?
- How do you create resilient relationships, use empathy, and create psychological safety?
WHAT IS THE ENNEAGRAM?
The Enneagram is a typing system consisting of nine basic personality types that are interconnected. It describes nine different ways of thinking, feeling and behaving that people default to in life. It also explains the «why» or core motivations behind these personality patterns: our deeper fears and longings. Unlike other personality tools, the Enneagram provides a unique path of development per type. It helps you how to better understand yourself and others, and shows you how you can grow and be the best version of yourself.
