When to Quit Your Job & How to Leave Well with Enneagram 8, Naomi Hattaway

On this week’s episode of Enneagram IRL, we meet with Naomi Hattaway. Naomi is the CEO of 8th & Home, a consulting practice that combines affordable housing and homelessness prevention work, with the power of Leaving Well, a practice for individuals, organizations, and boards in periods of transition. 

Her practice of leadership and implementation of the Leaving Well concept combines strategic visioning, organizational development, and community care. She delivers a deep commitment to equitable practices, a willingness to have tough conversations, strong project management and facilitation skills, and compassion and generosity to every interaction and facet of her work.

After living across the US, her family moved overseas to India where she learned to thrive in the midst of chaos. Following one year in Singapore, they moved back to the US and have traipsed their way through Florida, Virginia, Ohio, and Nebraska, and now back in Florida. Naomi is an 8w7, and her love languages are accountability, tattoos & really good playlists.
