Find Your Enneagram Type
Update: I've been working on fixing up the Enneagram Assessment. It looked like it was making people pay to upgrade on chatgpt and I want this to be free. Take the free assessment by downloading the attached html and dropping it into your browswer. I'll make a website link for this soon. One of the most common questions people ask is: "What Enneagram type am I?" The Enneagram describes nine distinct personality structures, nine ways we learn to navigate life, avoid discomfort, and seek what we believe will bring us security, love, and fulfillment. But the Enneagram is not about putting yourself in a box. It's about seeing the box you've already been living in. Understanding your type can help you recognize the patterns that run automatically in the background of your life, your motivations, blind spots, strengths, and recurring challenges. As those patterns become visible, new possibilities begin to emerge. This week, I'm releasing an Enneagram Assessment (beta version) to help you begin that exploration. The assessment is designed to identify your most likely Enneagram type and provide a starting point for deeper self-understanding. A few tips before you begin: - Answer based on how you have been most of your adult life, not how you'd like to be. - If you are stuck on a question, it is helpful to think of how you were in your 20s rather than now - Don't overthink the questions. - Be honest, even when an answer feels uncomfortable. - There are no good or bad types. Once you've completed it, share your results below if you'd like. I'd love to hear what type you received and whether it feels accurate. Most assessments are 60%-80% accurate. The score will give you a range that will be helpful for differentiating between types. It is simply a place to begin your exploration. The goal isn't to become a better version of your personality. The goal is to understand it so clearly that you begin to discover what exists beneath it. Take the assessment by dropping the html file into your browser.

Enneagram Type Seven: The Three Subtypes
Every Type Seven seeks freedom, possibility, and the joy of experiencing life fully. But the three instincts shape how that search for fulfillment is expressed. 🛡️ Self-Preservation Seven – Family Focuses on creating abundance, comfort, and security for themselves and those they care about. These Sevens often express their optimism by providing, planning, and making sure everyone has what they need. 🤝 Social Seven – Sacrifice Focuses on contributing to the well-being of the group. These Sevens often set aside personal desires to serve a larger purpose, finding joy through generosity, idealism, and shared meaning. ❤️ One-to-One Seven – Suggestibility Focuses on excitement, inspiration, and the pursuit of extraordinary experiences. These Sevens are drawn to intensity, imagination, and possibility, bringing enthusiasm and vision into their closest relationships. The instinct doesn't change the core Type Seven pattern, it changes where fulfillment is sought and how the desire for freedom is expressed. Understanding your subtype can reveal the unique strategy your personality has developed and help you discover the deeper contentment that isn't dependent on the next experience. Reflection: Which of these three expressions feels most familiar to you or to a Type Seven in your life?

Every Type Five seeks understanding, competency, and the inner resources to meet life with confidence. But the three instincts shape how that search for knowledge and security is expressed. 🛡️ Self-Preservation Five – Castle Focuses on creating safety through simplicity, privacy, and conserving energy. These Fives build an inner sanctuary where they can think clearly and feel protected from overwhelm. 🤝 Social Five – Totem Focuses on mastering knowledge that serves a larger purpose. They often become experts in areas that contribute to a community, philosophy, or field of study, finding belonging through wisdom and insight. ❤️ One-to-One Five – Confidence Focuses on finding one person, relationship, or pursuit worthy of complete engagement.
