TEDxJohnsonCity
I was honored to be the closing speaker for the inaugural TedxJohnsonCity event. The topic was “Rewriting the Appalachian Narrative” and I shared a personal story, practical takeaway and a surprise ending to delve into my take on this vast topic. Tickets sold out fast, but you can now view the recording!
High Places Coaching and Consulting is an incredible resource to anyone looking to better understand yourself and your work style. Just from a brief discussion I challenged Dr. Pickering if she knew could tell my enneagram. She avoids type casting people but I continued to push and challenge her. And boy did she deliver. Not only did she know my type, but she also listed likely adjacent ones as well. She was dead on and continued to discuss opportunities with me. I can't recommend connecting with them enough!David Nelson2024-07-02 I’ve had the pleasure of taking one of Natalie’s Eneagram classes, and she cares so much about using psychology to help people grow and understand more about themselves. She has the heart of a teacher at all times, and when your time with her is over you feel more empowered to conquer the day. I loved working with Natalie and would do it again in a heartbeat. 💯Landon Beall2024-04-18 Natalie is an amazing trainer, I highly recommend this program for anyone in leadership or oversight of people to learn about our enneagrams. It will assist you in more effective communication and leadership styles of your team as well as help team members better understand each other and how to work together.Alexa Owens2023-12-18 Dr. Natalie Pickering’s “Enneagram for Flourishing” event was phenomenal!
