Our Story
Freedom Finders began with two friends who cared deeply about people, community, and the power of honest self-understanding. What started as long conversations and shared study has become a place where individuals, families, nonprofits, and teams can learn in a supportive environment.
Carrie and Pauline came to the Enneagram from different directions, but they shared the same spark: a real desire to understand themselves and support the people around them. They studied, trained, volunteered, taught, and eventually brought their strengths together to create Freedom Finders, a learning space built on respect, compassion, and clarity.
They’ve spent years serving the Jackson Hole community in education, philanthropy, mental wellness, and community leadership. Freedom Finders is an extension of that commitment.
