The Enneagram | Part 1 | Discovering Your Lens, A Path to Self-Awareness

Audience: Open to all (whether you know your type or not)
Duration: 3hrs

Overview:
Begin your journey with the Enneagram by discovering your type and exploring how it shapes your
thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. If you already know your type, this is a great session to dive deeper
into your own type and learn about the other types, helping you to better understand how your lens
differs from others and how to better relate with others through your differences. This session lays the
foundation for meaningful self-reflection, personal and relational growth.

Key Topics:
● Introduction to the Enneagram: history, philosophy, and purpose
● Overview of the 9 Enneagram Types
● Discovering your core type and instinctual patterns
● Understanding your little angel (the gift) and your little devil (the fear & vice)
● Reflection exercises e.g:
- What drives your behaviour: is it innate within you or has it been learnt?
- Do you wear a mask: have you been acting as another type?
- Do you accept who you are or do you wish to be someone else?
● Journaling and breakout discussions on my patterns, my pain, my path to healing.

Takeaways:
● Clarity on your Enneagram type and core motivations.
● Insight into how you see and react to the world.
● Tools for deepening self-awareness and emotional resilience.

The Enneagram | Part 3 | Beyond my Type, Learning to “Borrow” in order to Grow

Audience: Anyone who has completed or re-watched Part 1 & 2
Prerequisite: Completion of Part 1 and 2 or basic Enneagram knowledge
Duration: 3 hours

Overview:
Now we know our type and understand others a little better, what now?
If we only act from our type, it is like walking on a tight rope with our arms tied behind our backs, we will
inevitably fall. As such, we naturally lean on other behaviours to help keep us upright, in Enneagram
terms, that is (usually) leaning to our wings and/or lines connected to us. However, if we don’t lean (or
borrow) intentionally, we can overdo it and carry their burden too (trust me, the burden of one type is
more than enough). Learning to borrow from other types allows us the freedom to choose how we respond
with the knowledge of other types without losing ourselves in the process.

Key Topics:
● Learning about wings (we have both within us)
● Accessing the lines connected to us (we go to both in good and not good)
● How to “borrow” without losing yourself
● Choosing to wear a mask rather than it wearing you.
● Connecting learnings from part 1 & 2
● Further exploration of the symbol of the Enneagram and its wisdom

Takeaways:
● Confidence using the Enneagram to enhance client insight and therapeutic alliance
● A deeper appreciation of the human experience through nine lenses
● Tools to tailor interventions and support long-term change
