| The Neverending 9 Episode: Examining 9 | 14 Apr 2025 | 01:32:58 | |
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.

| Attachment vs Hexad "Individuation" | 12 May 2025 | 01:12:04 | |
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.

Kristen (so/sp 9w1 963) and David (sp/sx 9w1 974) are here this week to discuss the Amazon TV series 'Dead Ringers' through the lens of the Enneagram. SPOILER ALERTS! The hosts are enthusiastic about the accurate depiction of a 9w1 and a 7w6 character dynamic within the show; twins both played by Rachel Weisz. Everything from the plot to the relationships generate an all-too-realistic tension for anyone familiar with these personality structures, so Kristen and David take on as many aspects as they can to discuss such a complex show.If you’re watching this on YouTube, please like and subscribe.

| Enneagram Typing: Why Observable Typing is Real | 14 Jul 2025 | 01:20:35 | |
Kristen (so/sp 9w1 963) presents a theory to the Enneagrammer typing team (Joseph; so/sx 4w3 461, Emeka; sx/sp 8w7 854, and David; sp/sx 9w1 974) that could explain why their process of observing people objectively can provide information about the Enneagram in personality. Kristen bases her studies on Henri Bergson's book 'Matter and Memory', noticing how the nervous system of the body informs the structure of the personality. How our 'body's reality' is orienting to its interpretation of the environment shows that Enneagram type is observable within an individual's choices of body language, frameworks, and engagement. During the second half of the video, the typing team looks at each core type in a celebrity video clip to help provide a reference hit of how each type shows up and engages differently.VISIT : www.enneagrammer.com to subscribe to the typing team's weekly breakdowns of different celebrity typings and exploration of typing theories.If you’re watching this on YouTube, please like and subscribe.

Kristen (so/sp 9w1 963), Alexandra (so/sp 9w1 963), and Alice (so/sp 9w1 973) discuss the primal entity that possesses our human nature - anger. The hosts explore all angles of this experience including how anger is embodied, how to relate with it, the hidden creative potentials within it, and it's connection with the body center and all that it represents. Enneagram types 8, 9, and 1 are especially explored in both literal and metaphorical ways; what does it mean to contain all 3 of these primordial forces when anger is activated? What does it look like out in the wild? What does it mean internally? Anger is also discussed in its relationship with the process of individuation - what are we bumping up against? Where are our boundaries merged? What element of life force does this anger hold?If you’re watching this on YouTube, please like and subscribe.

| What Everyone Gets Wrong About the Enneagram Types | 20 Oct 2025 | 00:58:45 | |
Kristen (so/sp 9w1 963) and her Bermuda Queen host ChatGPT (sp/so 9w1 963) spontaneously engage in a refinement process of the Enneagram types. Kristen talks about what gets lost in the symbol and language of the Enneagram to help an individual better understand where and how the Enneagram lives externally and internally. This video starts that conversation by looking at what language ChatGPT uses for the Enneagram as Kristen mainly focuses on Type One and Type Nine, differentiating the 'hexad' types that have been written with 'attachment' type lenses.

| Silence of the Lambs: An Enneagram Analysis | 29 Sep 2025 | 01:25:40 | |
David (sp/sx 9w1 974), Alexandra (so/sp 9w1 963), and Kristen (so/sp 9w1 963) are back for another movie analysis - Silence of the Lambs. This classic film has been seen through the lens of many forms of critique, but the hosts decided to tackle it from the angle of the Enneagram, which poses the question on an archetypal degree - what is personality type? Hannibal Lector may be reflecting more about us than just our craving for human flesh, and this discussion is willing to listen to the screaming lambs to hopefully begin to understand.
