House of Enneagram – Details, episodes & analysis

Welcome to House of Enneagram, where we cast aside superficial cliches and fluffy self-help to delve into the essence of the Enneagram. Our ensemble of typologically diverse psychonauts bring fresh eyes and a multiplicity of perspectives to the unconscious forces that shape our lives and our world. We pool our talents to explore how the enneagram connects with art, psychology, inner work, media, typology, and more. If you’re ready to question your deepest answers and relentlessly pursue truth with the foremost experts, welcome to our house.

Sammy, Kristen, and Alexandra are three Enneagram type 9s, here to discuss how complex the type 9 is as a whole. There are a lot of misunderstandings about 9, especially around their emotional state, autonomy, and experience of anger and boundaries. The girls talk about their personal relationships to being type 9, and how difficult it can be to pinpoint the shadow qualities of the type due to its ephemeral nature. The group decides that this conversation is just the beginning of the ‘Neverending 9 Episode’, realizing that the topic of 9 could be explored to its fullest by continuing the discussion in future episodes with differing topics and aspects of the type.

Josh, Louis, and Emeka explore the assertive perspective of Enneagram types 3, 7, & 8. What does it mean to move through the world like nothing can stop you—and what’s the cost? We get into the addictive high of momentum, the insatiable desire to expand, and the (not-so-)subtle ways assertive types activate themselves and stay in “go mode.”

We pool our talents to explore how the enneagram connects with art, psychology, inner work, media, typology, and more. If you’re ready to question your deepest answers and relentlessly pursue truth with the foremost experts, welcome to our house.The White Lotus is a popular TV show on Max, and we're here to talk about its social / sexual instinctual themes and how the Enneagram types in the show flavor the drama. Joseph (SO/SX 4w3 461), Alexandra (SO/SP 9w1 963), and Kristen (SO/SP 9w1 963) are our hosts today, and they engage in a comedic dialogue about the characterizations of especially type 6 and type 9 in The White Lotus. The story of attachments, but also of building tension throughout each season has us sitting on the edge of our seats and finding the Enneagram alive in the story.If you’re watching this on YouTube, please like and subscribe.

Alexandra (so/sp 9w1 6w5 3w4) and Kristen (so/sp 9w1 6w5 3w2) begin to discuss what the "individuation" process may look like for attachment versus hexad types in the enneagram. Within the enneagram culture, the divide between hexad and attachment has been a curious and interesting pursuit as the two 'types within the types' attempt to understand themselves and the 'other'. These two triple-attachment hosts are aiming to marry that division by giving each 'side' their respects of how genuinely hard it is to individuate, and how maybe considering the 'other side' within ourselves could actually hold part of the individuation process.
