Exploring Holy Perfection: A Journey with Dr. Renee Harmon

In this episode of The Real Enneagram, we kick off our series on the virtues and holy ideas associated with each Enneagram type. I, Nanette Mudiam, along with my co-host Dr. Joe Howell, am thrilled to welcome Dr. Renee Harmon, our first guest, who identifies as an Enneagram Type One.

Dr. Renee shares her journey as a family medicine physician and the profound impact of her late husband Harvey's diagnosis with younger onset Alzheimer's disease. We discuss how this life-altering experience shaped her understanding of herself and her Enneagram type. Dr. Renee reflects on her initial reluctance to embrace her identity as a Type One, often associated with perfectionism, and how she has come to appreciate the concept of "holy perfection" as wholeness rather than flawlessness.

Throughout our conversation, we explore the importance of serenity in her life, especially in the face of challenges. Dr. Renee shares her love for hiking, which became a significant source of solace and connection to nature during her husband's illness and after his passing. We also touch on her advocacy work for Alzheimer's care, her writing endeavors, and her upcoming hiking challenge of Mount Kilimanjaro.

As we delve into the qualities of her soul child, Dr. Renee reveals how reconnecting with her inner joy and spontaneity has enriched her life. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, growth, and the beauty of embracing our true selves amidst life's complexities.

We hope you enjoy this enlightening discussion and find inspiration in Dr. Renee's journey. Don't forget to subscribe and share this episode with your friends and family!
