Narrative Tradition

How do you find your Enneagram type? This blog explores why online tests are often inaccurate, how mistyping can hold back real growth, and why a guided, relational approach offers a more reliable way to discover your type. Learn how the Narrative Tradition helps people understand their motivations, patterns and possibilities for growth through conversation, insight and lived experience.

The Enneagram is often introduced through books, podcasts or type descriptions, but its deepest insights are rarely found in isolation. Learning in community allows us to hear lived experience, recognise our patterns more clearly, and grow in compassion for ourselves and others. In the Narrative Tradition, this relational way of learning brings the Enneagram to life.

Not all Enneagram teaching is the same. If you've ever read a type description online or taken a quick personality test, you’ve only scratched the surface.
