Introduction to the Enneagram Retreat – Maple Lake, MN
August 21–22, 2025
“The Enneagram doesn’t put you in a box—it shows you the box you’re already in, and how to get out of it.” — Ian Morgan Cron
If you’ve ever wondered why you keep reacting the same way—or why the people around you seem wired so differently—you’re not alone. This immersive, down-to-earth Enneagram retreat in Minnesota is designed to help you discover the deep motivations and hidden patterns that drive your behavior. It’s the kind of insight that can shift your relationships, rewire your leadership style, and reconnect you to yourself.
Hosted at our peaceful retreat center in Maple Lake, Minnesota, this workshop blends powerful personal insight with the restorative beauty of nature. With two beautifully restored barns, rolling green land, and wide-open skies, this is the perfect place to slow down and explore the terrain of your inner life.
Whether you’re brand new to the Enneagram or already know your number (and your wing… and your stress line…), this retreat is a place to ask real questions, listen deeply, and reflect honestly. You’ll leave with practical tools, increased self-awareness, and maybe even a little more compassion—for yourself and others.






TENTATIVE DAILY SCHEDULE
Day One: Introduction to the Enneagram
Thursday, August 21
12:30–4:30 PM
This engaging afternoon workshop is your gateway into the Enneagram: a powerful personality framework used by therapists, spiritual directors, coaches, and leaders worldwide. Through story, humor, group dialogue, and guided reflection, we’ll explore the core motivations, fears, and patterns of each of the nine Enneagram types.
You’ll begin to identify your own type and understand how your Enneagram number shapes how you see the world—and how the world sees you. Whether you’ve taken a test and forgotten the result or you’re a curious skeptic, this session will meet you where you are.
5:30–9:00 PM
Immediately following the workshop, we’ll host a relaxed, joy-filled gathering for all past Bounce Travels retreat participants. Expect meaningful conversation, shared laughter, food, music, beverages and plenty of connection as we gather under the Minnesota sky. This event is optional but warmly encouraged—because retreat community doesn’t end when the plane lands.
Day Two: Deep Dive into the Enneagram
Friday, August 22 | 9:00 AM–3:00 PM
For those craving more, Day Two offers a deeper dive into advanced Enneagram wisdom. We’ll explore topics like:
-
Enneagram wings and how they influence your core type
-
Stress and growth paths (how your number shifts under pressure or in health)
-
Relational dynamics between numbers, including how Enneagram types show up in friendships, partnerships, family, and teams
-
Practical tools for using the Enneagram in leadership, communication, and emotional wellbeing
This deeper Enneagram workshop is perfect for those who want to integrate what they’ve learned into everyday life and relationships.
Continuing Education Credit
We’re offering up to 10 hours of CME/CEUs for healthcare professionals who want to integrate this work into their practice. The Enneagram is increasingly used in leadership development, burnout prevention, communication training, and team dynamics—making this not just personally insightful, but professionally relevant.
