YOU’VE ARRIVED AT THE TRAILHEAD OF A SOUL-DEEP JOURNEY. WELCOME.
The ETREK Wisdom Journey is a 52-week spiritual pilgrimage rooted in the time-honored wisdom of the Enneagram—your unique number is more than just a type, it’s your personalized path toward greater self-awareness, healing, and wholeness.
We honor the internationally recognized teachings of the Enneagram, and what makes ETREK distinct is how we bring those insights to life through practice. Our signature tool—the Enneagration Compass—guides your growth week by week, helping you move toward integration and away from disintegration. This is where inner transformation meets real-world action.
As you walk this path, you won’t be alone. Every pilgrim receives:
- 52 weeks of soul-guiding emails tailored to your Enneagration path
- The Enneagration Course, teaching you how to use the Compass
- Weekly service opportunities, aligned with your integration path
- The Enneagration Tent, our digital campfire for connection and shared wisdom
BUT FIRST—YOU MUST CHOOSE YOUR PATH.
Your Enneagram number is your trailhead. The way you begin matters, because it shapes how your journey unfolds. Choosing your type with intention ensures the Enneagration Compass points true, and your service in the world reflects your inner growth.
If you already know your Enneagram number, you’re ready to begin your pilgrimage.
If you’re unsure or still exploring your type, pause at the trailhead and consider a Gear Up Session. It’s a one-on-one experience to help you discover your Path and equip you for the journey ahead.

TRAILHEAD READINESS TEST
AM I READY TO CHOOSE MY PATH?
Before you begin your ETREK pilgrimage, it’s important to feel confident in the number you choose, as it shapes your entire journey. This short readiness check is designed to help you reflect on your current understanding of the Enneagram and your ability to make a clear choice. Answer honestly—there’s no wrong answer, just a helpful next step.
" DISCLAIMER - Let’s be honest: this isn’t the SAT. If you score 51% or higher, congrats—you’re good to go! If not, you might just need a little help sorting out your number (that’s what Gear Up Sessions are for). We don’t grade on a curve, we don’t curve our grade, and we definitely don’t try to upsell you. The pilgrimage is always free, the choice is always yours. We're just here with snacks, support, and slightly above-average metaphors "
