PERSONAL MASTERY PROGRAM
for Inner Transformation
this program is
an intensive process designed for those who are motivated to apply the Enneagram to initiate a profound journey of internal change. These are individuals seeking deeper ways to apply the Enneagram system of personality and who are committed to inner inquiry. They are ready for deep healing experiences and opportunities to learn in community to further their progress on their psychological healing path and spiritual journey.
“Their ability to deeply connect and accept each one of us, no matter where we are on our journeys, was beautiful to both experience and witness. This is where to come to experience an awakening!”
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The program is comprised of three retreats, an integration period after each course, and community work. These key components are outlined below.
INNER WORK RETREATS:
The program is comprised of three inner work retreats:
Inner Work Retreat: The Experiential Enneagram
Inner Work Retreat: The Psychological Enneagram
Inner Work Retreat: The Alchemical Enneagram
THE EXPERIENTIAL ENNEAGRAM
*We recommend that Personal Mastery Program students take this retreat first.
In this narrative-based retreat, students recount a significant story in their lives. Based on this narrative, the teachers work with the student to develop an understanding of the Enneagram-based work that they can do to get to a higher state of consciousness. This retreat is highly immersive and is only recommended to students who have a support system and are ready to work on unconscious traumas and healing.
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL ENNEAGRAM
In this retreat, students learn about the Levels of Awareness and work on transitioning to a higher state. They learn concrete tools to help them become more disciplined in their inner work. They also do psychological work, including the four core emotions, dynamics such as family structure, doing work at subtype, instinct, passion, fixation, and other levels.
THE ALCHEMICAL ENNEAGRAM
In this one-of-a-kind final retreat of the Personal Mastery Program, students will have a highly spiritual experience that provides them with a glimpse of Level 4 Enneagram work. It requires a strong commitment to psychospiritual work and will use the group dynamic to reach higher levels of consciousness.
INTEGRATION
After each retreat, students are required to complete an integration period with a mentor assigned by the CP Team. The first integration period begins after the student completes their first inner work retreat. We recommend students begin with the Inner Work Retreat: The Experiential Enneagram. Each integration period is comprised of three sessions with the mentor.
EXPERIENTIAL INTEGRATION
Getting on the path.
During this period, students will be introduced to their mentor, a staff therapist who will be there to guide them on their journey. Sessions with mentors will be tailored to the student’s particular trajectory. This includes providing students with reading materials and assignments, focusing their inner inquiry on the stage of Enneagram-related inner work that they need, and gently nudging them to the work that needs to happen before the next phase. Their mentor can also help them determine when they are ready for the next CP retreat. Students will meet with their mentors at least three times between retreats and will sign up for the CP Online membership to access supporting materials.
PSYCHOLOGICAL INTEGRATION
Growing in community.
During this period, students will continue to work with their mentor and complete three additional mentoring sessions, picking up on the work they finished before The Psychological Enneagram. Together, they will reflect on the inner work that they completed and build on their Personal Development Plan. They will have the option to join a post-retreat support group that will meet until they attend the next retreat. Students will be introduced to one another based on the type of inner work they are each doing, curated by Bea and Uranio. Groups will receive guidelines to help organize the meetings to enable the continuation of learning and development after the retreat.
ALCHEMICAL INTEGRATION
Sustaining awareness.
After they have completed Inner Work Retreat: The Alchemical Enneagram, students will continue on their inner work journey with the support of their mentors. They will have time to discuss what they have learned during the retreat and how they want to carry on their personal development. We will send invitations to students to participate in advanced inner work retreats where they can continue their growth journey long after their personal mastery track work has finished. In addition, students will have the opportunity to continue fostering relationships with other students in an online community.
An integral part of The Academy’s work relies on students working together and building solidarity, community, and healing through supporting each other. Students will be invited to participate online in rich meditation sessions once a month. After students attend The Psychological Enneagram, a community component is added to their work. They are placed into student groups to meet monthly until their next retreat. Students are prompted with reflection questions that they use in their groups, allowing them to develop a pattern of receiving feedback and growing in community.
COMMUNITY
meditations
While in the program, students will be invited to participate in rich, group meditation sessions. Each month, students will be guided for an hour online by the Head Mentor. The format of the live sessions consists of an intro with conscious breathing, meditation techniques that will help connect to our deeper sense of being and higher states, and a brief time for reflections.
GROUP MEETINGS
Upon completing Inner Work Retreat: The Psychological Enneagram, students will have the option to join a small group from their retreat that will meet regularly and support each until their next retreat. These groups often continue to meet long past the personal mastery track and students support each other “on the path.”
PRIVATE EVENTS
Once students are in the Personal Mastery Program, they receive invitations to private events—whether paid or free—these gatherings become locations to deepen bonds with like-minded students and keeping each other accountable to a continual, life-long journey of self-discovery and daily practice. Students will be invited to advanced retreats and small-group study work.

HOW DO I OFFICIALLY SIGN UP?
Sign up directly on this page! Click on any of the sign up buttons on the page and you will be prompted to pay your registration fee and accept the terms of the program. Once you pay, accept the terms, you will gain access to our program on our platform that will guide you through the process. After you attend your first retreat, a CP staff member will introduce you to your mentor and you and your mentor will begin the integration process.
is there a deadline to complete the program?
Typically students complete the program over the course of two years or so, but we are flexible to work with the student based on their needs. We want to make sure that students keep moving forward in their work, but we also respect that individuals come from different stories and backgrounds and some may need more time to process trauma and work on certain aspects of themselves than others.
HOW DOES THE ACADEMY PICK MY MENTOR?
Mentors will be assigned to you based on the work they did with you during your first retreat. This, coupled with their deep knowledge of our staff therapists’ methodologies and mentorship styles, will support them in creating a good match for your inner work journey. If students are unhappy with their mentor at any time, they can reach out to our team to get reassigned.
WHEN SHOULD I SIGN UP FOR THE PROGRAM?
Students can join the program within 6 months after completing their first retreat, but most do so either prior to their first retreat or immediately after completing their first retreat to keep their momentum from the event.
WHAT ARE THE TOTAL PROGRAM COSTS?
The costs of the program are as follows:
Registration fee ($550)
Three retreats (retreats are usually $1900-$2500, not including travel or accommodations)
Nine total integration period sessions with your mentor (about $125 per session)
An annual membership to CP Online ($249 per year)
HOW DO I STAY IN TOUCH WITH FELLOW STUDENTS?
Due to our international student base, students can communicate with students in the Personal Mastery Program, their retreats, and to all CP students on our platform that hosts our community groups. You will be automatically added upon registration. Or you can sign up to use our platform for free here.
We also share the participant email list after the courses. We have found that once in a retreat together, students tend to build community both through our formal channels and outside of them.
