This sounds exactly like 4. This is a big scam.

Hi! Thank you so much for this very informative video, it definitely helped me and I love the pacing of the video. There's just one thing I didn't understand, the term "gospel". I think you've used it a couple of times in the video, but I didn't quite catch what it meant or what it was relating to. If you could please enlighten me, thank you!!

Thank you for the video and carrying enough to post this. My wife, a type 8 with ADHD, asked me to take the Enneagram test, and I came out as a type 5. My issue is that whenever I express skepticism about the accuracy of the Enneagram, I’m told that’s exactly what a 5 would say! I can’t help but see this as circular reasoning, which contradicts my logical thinking. But I trust my wife, so I’m inclined to accept that I might be a type 5 based on her observations. Interestingly, she also encouraged me to get tested for ADHD within the last year or two. I approached the test thinking it might be a crutch for people to lean on when they fail. To my surprise, I scored an 80 on one of many tests, where anything over 60 indicates ADHD. The doctor asked how I manage daily tasks like not losing my keys or finishing laundry, and I explained my strategies-using AirTags for my keys and leaving laundry baskets in obvious places as reminders. Despite being prescribed medication for severe ADHD, I remain skeptical about how much it truly helps. As an INTJ-A and a type 5, I suppose it makes sense that I’d be analytical and skeptical about these kinds of assessments. Long story long, I suppose there is something to all of this.

Trouble identifying differences between Counter Phobic 6 vs. Enneagram 8. Would love to hear your insights on that problem, Jeff!!

I loved the banter about the self-pres 5. As one, I know I could live on a deserted planet as long as I had enough books!

This was so fun to listen to. Thank you both!

AC Slater grew up and became Jeff McCord.

Great video as always Jeff & Adam! Loved the insight about the head type :)

Hi, I’m Christian, and I’m an Enneagram 7…

Yeah I don’t think you should try to incorporate your particular religion with this pseudoscience. If you want to keep people viewing your ideology as legitimate, you shouldn’t attempt to mix it with a blatantly illegitimate personality system.

Loved this episode! I'm a 1 with undiagnosed ADD. This intersection between ADHD theory and Enneagram theory is very interesting. I like how grounded this discussion was. I see too many ads on social media calling ADHD something it isn't. People saying "It's not a dopamine or attention deficiency"... when it definitely is. I've noticed ADHD/ADD is becoming more of a misunderstood buzz word than a helpful diagnosis with clinical meaning.

My personality is Infp-t. The result said 4w9 or it's 9w4 actually Cause my enneagram 9 is 97% and 4 is 94%. But it said I'm type 4

So very helpful! As a SX/SP 4w3, 478 tritype, I really appreciated the insight on not only my type but the other types in the heart triad (that 4 is also connected to). Can't wait for deep dive on the head triad :)

Great job!

Thank you! I'm recovering from a narcissist spouse and all of the things are spot on with my reactions! It's been a year and half and I finally feel like I can make sense of myself!

Thanks ! ❤❤

❤❤❤❤❤

Sounds like this could easily turn into NPD without self reflection present or the desire to look at one's self to grow.

I call that "gluttony" the hungry ghosts 👻

As a Three, the Martha and Mary analogy is so pertinent! Great interview. Thanks to you both❤❤

Im a genius with ADHD and im a type 5. I absorb information and love it. I speak or understand to some extent over 6 languages. My bests are russian and german. If i go on about my intrestes id be writing an essay plus a random rabbit hole rant and loss of place in the message.

As a 6w5 - this is the most positive discussion about 6s I’ve seen. Usually I leave feeling depressed and discouraged. Thanks for helping me see the good side of my personality.

Beautiful I had a feeling about you

My kids are all grown up now, but this gave me so much insight into what what I experienced while they were growing up. Also, I hadn’t realized that female fives are rare. No wonder I’ve felt so “different” -it’s actually quite comforting to understand that.

as a type 7… rule number one is always party 🤩

But how do i get to the "doing well" part lol

Michelle!!! Dear best friend, I love you so much and you’ve taught this Type 3 in finding those little joys that you can lean in to. When I want to achieve achieve achieve and life/motherhood/anything slows me down, I now can see it with a different lens and smile about the chaos. It’s the great kind of chaos after all. ❤

Amanda! That's my bestie!!! So very proud of you, love!! Amanda has been so instrumental in introducing the enneagram to her friends and family, not only encouraging us to understand ourselves but actively using it in her interactions with all of us. She's such a gem of a human being, and I'm so glad you all get to meet her, too. Great episode overall!

The girl is probably 2 And boy is 9

you are doing a really really good job . but to be honest I found it a little challenging to follow through the episode as a beginner. i think it could be simpler

In the past, I clung to my nine wing like a tightrope walker grasping their balancing pole. It provided an illusion of stability, a safety net as I navigated the precarious twists and turns of life. Outwardly, I was numb, accommodating, going through the motions - but inwardly, it was all a facade, a lie I told myself to maintain a fragile sense of sanity. I suppressed my true self, donning a mask of apathy to keep the peace. Yet this borrowed strength was merely a temporary reprieve, a season of self-deception that couldn't last. Eventually, the mask began to slip, the cracks in my persona becoming increasingly difficult to conceal. I knew, deep down, that this wasn't me - not the real, authentic version I longed to embrace. It was a difficult realization, acknowledging that the very mechanisms that once shielded me had become a prison of sorts, confining the parts of myself I had sacrificed for the sake of seeming unruffled. But it was a necessary step, a catalyst for growth and self-discovery.

As a 22yr old nine still figuring out my heavy wing I have never felt SO UNDERSTOOD!!🫧Thankyou so much for all you amazing coaches do God Bless🤍

Thank you for presenting this in such a positive light and focusing so much on strengths. I've watched some other videos on type 6 and have come away feeling judged or discouraged. Your video had the opposite effect.

Thank you

Cool. Good info, thank you for sharing

😂she's so comfortably crazy. Its amazing to witness!

Lol we have torrets

Thanks for making these videos!!

As a woman I hate when we act like we are treated this way or that way because we are women. Maybe we aren't as good as making ourselves heard. You can't blame others or you will always be a victim.
