What is the Enneagram?

A Simple Yet Life-Changing Tool for Self-Discovery

The Enneagram helps you understand why you think, feel, and act the way you do—so you can grow into the healthiest version of yourself.

The Enneagram is a powerful personality framework designed to foster self-awareness, personal growth, and stronger relationships. Represented by a nine-pointed diagram, it outlines nine distinct personality types—each with unique ways of seeing and responding to the world.

Think of the types as nine differently colored lenses 👓—each offering a unique perspective on life. Instead of boxing you in, the Enneagram helps you understand the “box” you’re already in… and how to get out.

Ever Wonder Why Change Feels So Hard?

Maybe you’ve tried other personality tests, but they only told you what you do—not why. Without understanding the deeper forces shaping your patterns, lasting change can feel impossible.

You might notice yourself:

Getting stuck in the same frustrating cycles
Misunderstanding others (and feeling misunderstood)
Struggling with blind spots that keep you from growth

The Enneagram changes that. It goes beyond surface traits to uncover your Core Motivations—the deep fears, desires, and longings that drive everything you do.

It’s All About the WHY

At the heart of the Enneagram are four Core Motivations for each type:

Core Fear: What you most want to avoid
Core Desire: What you long for to feel fulfilled
Core Weakness: The recurring struggle that trips you up
Core Longing: The deep message your heart longs to hear

When you discover your type, you gain a personal “roadmap” for growth—helping you:

Understand your triggers
Recognize unhealthy patterns
Move toward lasting transformation
