Host An Enneagram House Party

Bring the wisdom of the Enneagram to your living room.
Imagine a night with your favorite people — the kind of evening where laughter flows, conversations turn meaningful, and your relationships grow deeper in ways that feel both natural and nourishing. You’ll walk away not only with new insight into yourself, but with a renewed sense of connection to those around you.

That’s what the Enneagram House Party is all about.

This two-hour, guided experience invites you and a group of 8–12 friends into a space of real connection, meaningful reflection, and joyful discovery — all centered around the rich and insightful wisdom of the Enneagram.

This isn’t a lecture or a class — it’s a shared experience. Thoughtfully guided, genuinely engaging, and uniquely tailored to your group, it’s the kind of gathering that stays with you long after the last guest heads home.

What Is It?

The Enneagram House Party is part party, part workshop, and all heart.

Designed for friend groups, couples groups, small groups, book clubs, or curious seekers, this is an unforgettable way to:

  • Explore your Enneagram type and what drives you

  • Learn more about the people you care about

  • Spark honest, playful, and soul-deep conversations

  • Have fun with engaging exercises, story-sharing, and light teaching

Perfect For

  • Friends who love personality tools

  • Small groups craving deeper connection

  • Birthday gatherings, retreats, or wine night with a twist

  • People who want fun with meaning

How It Works

  • Host invites 8–12 guests to their home (or another cozy venue) with an agreed upon date

  • I come prepared with everything we need for a guided 2-hour experience (I work with you to see what you would like to work with)

  • No prior Enneagram knowledge required — just curiosity and openness

Cost & Booking

  • $350 flat rate for the 2-hour experience

  • Includes facilitation and materials (you provide food, drinks, etc.)

  • Hosts often split the cost among friends — about $30–$45 per person

 FAQs

  • Nope! While it’s helpful if guests come with a general idea of their type, it’s absolutely not required. I’ll provide simple tools and prompts to help guests reflect and engage meaningfully no matter where they are on their Enneagram journey. If introducing the types is the sort of gathering you want to have, let’s plan for that. However, it is more fun to begin from a shared place of knowing our types.

  • This experience is designed to meet your group exactly where you are — whether you're brand new to the Enneagram or already well-versed in its wisdom.I offer three levels of engagement so we can create the best fit for your people:

    • Level 1: Discover
      A welcoming introduction for beginners or mixed groups. We’ll explore the core structure of the Enneagram, each of the nine types, and how the system can be a tool for greater self-awareness and compassion.

    • Level 2: Deepen
      Ideal for groups with some Enneagram familiarity. We’ll go beyond the basics to explore wings, centers, and growth paths, offering new insight into how each type responds to stress, security, and relationships.

    • Level 3: Dive In
      A more advanced experience for Enneagram enthusiasts ready to explore subtypes, instincts, and the deeper spiritual dynamics of the system. Perfect for groups who’ve done some previous Enneagram work and are eager to go further.

    Not sure which level is right for your group? Don’t worry — I’ll guide you through the options and help you choose the best approach when you book.

    I work with what is called the Somatic or Embodied Enneagram and my work as a spiritual director will draw out some vulnerability and allow the group to participate in compassion with each other.

  • The flat fee includes:

    • A 2-hour guided experience tailored to your group

    • All printed materials and conversation tools

  • No. There is no bait and switch. Nothing will be sold at these events.

  • The Enneagram offers a neutral language of spirituality (essence) in a similar way that the 12-steps do (a higher power). The spiritual work of the Enneagram is one of personal work and alignment with your own essence. So no, there is no specific spiritual teaching but there can be reflection, vulnerability and compassion to you and your guests.
