“In The Enneagram for Teens, Ainsley Britain has distilled the Enneagram’s wisdom into a relatable and engaging guide tailored for teenagers. This book is a transformative compass for the younger generation, offering them valuable insights and a head start in their lifelong journey of understanding themselves and others. I know this book will positively impact the lives of teenagers, parents, and educators alike.”
“What a resource! Ainsley has a knack for taking confusing subjects and breaking them down into easy-to-digest nuggets of wisdom, always pointing us to Christ. From comparing the layers of our personality to a cake (I love her for this) to using characters to help illustrate each Enneagram number, this book is so light yet so transformative! As a mom of teen girls, I am so thankful for every word Ainsley writes. She makes you feel like you are sitting together on her back porch sipping tea, but your conversation ‘accidentally’ changes your life in the process. Her knowledge of the Enneagram and her love for Jesus are married together so well. She uses the tools of personality evaluation to help you understand how you were created and how to use those gifts to grow, heal, and thrive!”
“This book is a game changer for those navigating the exciting yet complex journey of being a teenager. Ainsley’s writing is engaging and relatable, making the Enneagram easy to grasp, but she dives deeper by addressing important life topics often missing in other Enneagram guides, such as faith and career choices. Ainsley’s infectious personality shines through her words as she shares vibrant illustrations and compelling stories, making the Enneagram come to life in a fun and meaningful way. Because Ainsley is a trusted authority in this space and has already influenced countless teens through her writing and speaking, this book is a must-read for anyone seeking to discover themselves during this pivotal life stage.”
“A roadmap to propel you beyond self-discovery toward spiritual growth during the teen years, where the struggle to understand yourself and others and make sense of your faith feels visceral at times. Ainsley is a wise mentor and kind friend in the pages of this book—one I wish I had as a teen.”
“As a mom of teenage girls, I am desperate for resources to help me better communicate with my daughters and give them language we can all use and understand to navigate these challenging years. The Enneagram is a tool both the church and corporate America have used to help build communication skills and conflict resolution among its staff, and it can also be a gift to parents looking to do the same in our homes. Ainsely does a beautiful job of using real-life, applicable situations to help teens discover not only their strengths, but their weaknesses, inviting them to look more deeply into how God made them as they learn how to develop healthy relationships, navigate their emotions, and set goals for their future. It’s a beautiful thing that as humans we aren’t all packaged the same, and this book is a sweet gift to help teens see beyond the wrapping and into the deepest parts of their heart desperate for love, purpose, and understanding.”
