Do you often wonder what you are really good at?
You know the thing you want to be known for?
Have you ever wished you had superpowers, like Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel or Super Girl?
What if I said that you do have superpowers.
For real!
Okay, so you may not be able to leap from building to building or have a truth telling lasso, but you do possess a God-given superpower.
Your superpower might just be collecting dust underneath the layers of stress motherhood has placed on you or even the demands of life that have caused you to forget the superpowers you’ve been equipped with.
While I may not be Wonder Woman’s mom- the proud Amazon queen Hippolyta, and we can’t spend years training in no-man’s land, I thought I would spend just a few minutes reminding you who you were created to be- the unique gifts and strengths you have available for you to use in motherhood.
So, this episode is dedicated to all my wannabe cape wearing mamas- when you need a breath of fresh air and a quick reminder of who you were created to be, I hope you will listen for encouragement whenever you need it.

Hi, my name is Amy Wicks, and I help you navigate the overwhelm and frustration of motherhood through faith, Enneagram, and simple plans. As a faith-based Enneagram coach, I champion you to love your mothering style because you are the mom your kids need, even when you don't feel like it. I'm a mountain mama who somehow ended up on a cul-de-sac in the Midwest, overwhelmed and frustrated by motherhood. But the Lord didn't let me stay there. He helped me turn the challenges of motherhood into a wholehearted decision to get intentional with my faith, my self-awareness, and my family. Each episode of this podcast provides perspective through story, wholehearted purpose, and simple plan so you can discover how to love your mothering style and be confident that you are the mom your kids need. Think of this podcast as your on-the-go mom pal and friend who can't help but talk about Jesus and the Enneagram. So get to that pile of laundry, or hit the treadmill, or load up the kids in the car for that grocery run. Get ready to be encouraged and empowered while you listen. This is the Simply Wholehearted Podcast. If your superpowers are feeling a little dusty or rusty, just know that you are not alone. Because your struggle to walk in your God-given superpower, well, it all started back in the garden, as in Eden. You see, Satan couldn't force men to do evil, but he did whisper evil ideas into their ears. He was able to distract them from their true identity. And therefore, humans continue to live under the same curse. But the good news is while you and I may not deserve redemption, we are redeemable. So today I wanted to remind you about a hero who believes in love, who is filled with love, and believes in hope and the redemption of mankind. And it can be a part of your story too. If you are a Christ follower, then you know the ultimate hero of your story. And as you accept the invitation to walk in Christ-likeness, you will be compelled to live and tell the truth of what is possible. But maybe it feels like the people, the little ones in your home, the ones you were made to raise while they're trying to kill you, or at least wear you to the bones in the process of protecting them. That's not too unlike a superhero, right? Yeah, and when you hear your superpowers, it feels as if all is lost and you can never walk in the fullness of the strengths God intended for you. But listen to me carefully. Don't abandon your principles. Ask your Savior to expand them. Don't become discouraged or bury your head in the sand either. Maintain and fight for what is true about what you believe and add a bit of your real-world wisdom and experience to it. I invite you to believe that your love is a source of strength, not weakness. I know you fundamentally believe that your role as a mama and your children are worthy of protection. And it's this knowledge that can raise your level of compassion and courage that some of your more cynical mama friends they may not have right now. I know you can probably think of a few cranky moms, and they're most likely former idealists who gave up on trying to be the mom they wanted to be as soon as it was clear their mission would be a lot harder than they originally thought. So remember, true acts of bravery often require patience, diligence, and the courage to face the truth. I invite you to be patient with yourself, to be diligent and not give up. Have courage to face the truth that maybe you've allowed the enemy to thwart the life that you were meant to live. And because no true hero can be born from lies, let's spend the next few minutes remembering the truth of who you are meant to be. My type one mama friend. Well, your superpower is you instinctively know how to provide the solution to fix the problem. You show others the human spirit can shine through and make a difference. This empowers you to teach your children higher values, even at the cost of great personal sacrifice. You advocate for responsibility and you help your children form strong moral and ethical values. For my type two mama. Your superpower is that you can accurately read the feelings and the needs of others, especially your children. This empowers you to be the embodiment of the nurturing parent and the one everyone wishes that they had warming in the glow of your generous heart. You are unconditionally loving and you help your children be aware of the needs around your family. For my type three mom, your superpower is that you can readily respond and adapt to your community and the needs around you. This empowers you to be aware of how you can efficiently get things done, you can provide a path to successful accomplishment, and you can change for the betterment of yourself and others. You provide healthy optimism and motivation to your children, and you help them achieve their God-given dreams. For my type 4 mom, your superpower is that you are so attuned to the feelings of sorrow or grief that you are deeply aware of how your kids feel when they are suffering. This empowers you to empathize with your children's pain and deep emotions, yet be authentic with their feelings. You are emotionally supportive and you help your children become aware of their truest identity and help them to live authentically. For my type 5 mom, your superpower is your attentiveness and ability to acquire knowledge. Not much escapes your notice. This empowers you to assert what you know to be true, and that dispels inaccuracies or exaggerations, otherwise perpetuated by force of personalities. You are perceptive and you provide emotional stability. You train your children to value knowledge. For my type six mama, your superpower is your courage. Yes, courage, I promise you. You are resilient when you are rooted and centered in Christ. This empowers you to be sensible and confident in your choices, even when you face doubt. You're an excellent troubleshooter as you foresee problems, as you gather others for solutions. You provide a healthy and nurturing environment, and you help your children be vigilant and have a strong sense of duty. For the type 7 mom, your superpower is to transform tedious daily tasks into something fun and exciting. This empowers you to use your creativity and upbeat energy to inspire your kids to see the positive things in life. Your stubbornness helps you pursue what you want your children to get out of life. And you are adventurous. You help your children be exposed to a variety of experiences. The type 8 mom. Your superpower is your refusal to give in to social convention. This empowers you to defy fear, shame, and concern about the consequences of your actions. You don't let the opinions of your kids sway your determination, much less others. You are devoted, and you champion your children to be full of courage and advocate for those who are defenseless and downtrodden. And last but not least, the type 9 mom. Your superpower is your ability to exemplify all nine types. This empowers you to demonstrate the strength of the eight, the sense of fun and adventure of the seven, the loyalty of the six, the knowledge of the five, the authenticity of the four, the competence of the three, the generosity of the two, and the responsibility of the one. You are playful and relaxed. You help your children be aware of others' points of view. Hey now. These are some serious world-changing superpowers. Am I right? Yeah, each personality that the Lord has put on this earth has important work to do. So I invite you to be patient with yourself, to be diligent, and don't give up. Don't abandon your principles, but ask your Savior to expand them. Remember, the Enneagram shines a light on the relationship between the best version of you and the worst version of you. It gives insight to your distorted beliefs and unconscious strategies, which often hinder the full expression of who God designed you to become. And this is why I love being a faith-based Enneagram coach. Because together, with God's help, I can champion you to be the wholehearted mom you long to be and help you use your superpowers to change the world. I'm so thrilled to have you listening to this Enneagram for Moms episode.
