GUIDANCE
THE ENNEAGRAM
Unwind the riddle of your unconscious motivations, deep-set patterns, and most entrenched interpersonal challenges with the Enneagram as ally — a supremely powerful tool for self-awareness and change.
In these sessions, we explore in real-time your relationship with safety, personal value, autonomy, resource, belonging, chemistry, attachment styles, orientation toward challenge, how you habitually try to get your needs met, and more.
The Enneagram itself is a vast, complex system — and it’s not even static! It’s changing, evolving, refining.
I’ll guide you through the forest of complexity, into a clearer sense of what you’re up to — in each moment.
You’ll discover a fresh experience of the Essence qualities that underlie your personality.
And through practice, you’ll illuminate your body, heart, and mind with lucid, vital Presence.
TAKE A TEST? OR MEET WITH A HUMAN…
I’m occasionally asked if I can point to the best Enneagram test currently available. My response:
Self-profiling tests are hugely influenced by the subjectivity of the test-taker. Given that the Enneagram’s aim is to help bring to light the trappings we’re in, an Enneagram test is very possibly intrinsically and ironically unhelpful in our endeavor to more clearly understand ourselves — because we are, simply stated, incredibly biased. Our test results may very likely reflect our biases and blind spots, further reinforcing our incapacity to see ourselves clearly.
I’ve been on a journey with the Enneagram for over a quarter century. I’m in the river of this elegant and wild leviathon of a system — learning from the work of the earliest pioneers (Gurdjieff, Ichazo, Naranjo) to the modern day masters (Palmer, Riso & Hudson, Chestnut & Paes, etc) to the new vanguard (Luckovich, Okorafor, Gray, etc).
It’s crucial to be aware that there are myriad key refinements happening in our understanding of the Enneagram. If we’re not keeping pace with these clarifications, we might be unnecessarily believing we’re a type that we simply are not. And then, the massive power of the Enneagram as a catalytic tool fades into a shadow of its original potency.
Many enthusiasts are using AI to help them discover and work with their type. As with all things AI, it can only give as much value as the sources it’s pulling from. (Not to mention the same challenges as above regarding subjectivity, and what you are feeding your AI.) And if your AI is pulling from sources that are not including these refinements, you are likely wading through some very muddy waters.
In this work, I distill my love-obsession into something that can make a difference in your life. For real evolution.
And possibly, revolution.
Bottom line: There’s nothing like an in-person sleeves-rolled-up exploration. No test can go to the places we travel together. We’ll aim for a clarifying sense of which center you’re most overdoing (which determines you main type), what you’re up to in your trifix (in your other two less-prioritized centers), and dive into the instinctual drives. We do this by you submitting a short (20 minutes or so) video of you answering questions and… being you! I then assess your type, after which we meet to discuss my findings.

“If you’ve ever sat by the ocean and been mesmerized by its depth, you have a sense of what working with Bryce is like.
“He is deeply present, often deceptively quiet, perceiving fully and seeing the whole of you -- mind, body, feelings, soul, shadow.
“Work with Bryce is not work in the shallows. The gift he provides is to show you back to yourself, along with a means to step fully into your deepest passion, purpose, and place in the world. It’s not for the faint of heart.”
