    E64:A World Where No One Is a Stranger: Enneagram, Ego, and Being Honest About How You’re Doing

    Hosts Holly and Tannah open Enneagram Adventure with a rambling, life-focused episode inspired by a TikTok by comedian/activist Alok asking, “What is your hope for the future?” and imagining a world where no one is a stranger and people can answer “How are you?” with real honesty. They discuss how all nine Enneagram types share common roots in reward, punishment, and trauma, how ego convinces us we’re uniquely misunderstood, and why compassion and “holding space” help us see sameness over difference and assume positive intent. They reflect on hidden struggles (including Holly’s concussion and whiplash after a car accident), the difficulty of vulnerability, the freedom of moving closer to neutrality without judgment, and the importance of flexibility, apologies, and changing your mind. They close with a call to be more honest about feelings and tease Tannah getting family members to take an Enneagram assessment.00:00 Rambly TikTok Setup02:14 Podcast Intro and Enneagram Disclaimer03:42 Alok TikTok and No Strangers06:35 Same Trauma Different Flavors09:28 Ego Gets in the Way10:36 Fixing Feelings and Family15:03 Invisible Pain and Concussion17:58 Challenging Biology and Generations19:58 Ego Death and Being Wrong26:02 Getting Closer to Neutral27:01 Random Couch Questions28:05 Money No Object Question30:45 Dream Jobs And Podcast Plans31:55 Helping Marginalized Communities36:22 Abolish Money Rabbit Hole37:12 Breaking Ego Patterns39:21 Anger Dopamine And Repair43:09 Honest Check Ins Experiment46:52 Upright And Not Crying48:10 Family Enneagram Teaser49:49 Wrap Up And Call To ActionEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://pin.it/5vmAb7ZQQhttps://substack.com/@enneagramadventureListen to the Pod Here:https://open.spotify.com/show/7A3DMdipKzElgEMD47XU6whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enneagram-adventure/id1792658956

    E63: Enneagram Compatibility: Which Types Get Along (and Why It’s Not a Hard Rule)

    Holly and Tannah open with humorous parenting and a brief astrology tangent, then introduce their podcast, The Enneagram Adventure, noting they are IEQ9 certified coaches and explaining the Enneagram focuses on core motivation (the “why”), not behavior, and isn’t an excuse or a way to box people in. They discuss the common question of Enneagram “compatibility,” emphasizing nuance and that any types can get along depending on health and self-awareness, then walk through types and relationship dynamics: ones’ perfectionistic standards and potential synergy with fives and eights and tension with fours and sevens; nines’ peacekeeping and tendency to withdraw; eights’ intensity, directness, loyalty-testing, and common pairing with twos; sevens’ easygoing energy but planning/commitment friction; sixes’ security-focus, skepticism, and trust issues; fours’ emotional depth and potential challenges with sevens, threes, and eights; threes’ achievement and chameleon tendencies; twos’ connections with fives and eights and triggers with constant levity or withdrawal. They close by noting same-type relationships can feel like harmony or a mirror, invite listeners to share experiences.

    E62: Enneagram 2w3, Authenticity, and the Three Selves: Performer vs Helper vs True Self

    Recording from Tannah’s grandma’s condo with ancestral portraits in the background, Tannah and Holly discuss Enneagram and identity, emphasizing the Enneagram as core motivation rather than behavior. Tannah (an Enneagram 2 with a strong 3 wing) describes an Instagram reel that sparked questions about switching between “high performer” and “warm mom,” leading to ideas about the performing self, relational self, and private/true self. They connect these selves to childhood patterns, image and financial security, and how twos can slip into “give to get,” fixing others, and managing emotions to reduce anxiety tied to abandonment. Tannah shares resentment and autopilot caretaking at home and while helping her grandma, while Holly notes boundaries and not being responsible for others’ feelings. They touch on ego/identity death, re-parenting, generational coping styles, technology/AI shifts, and propose a future episode on each type’s shadow side.00:00 Grandma House Intro00:54 Enneagram Identity Setup02:23 Long Text Origin Story03:13 Work Mom Personas04:47 ChatGPT Pep Talk06:59 Three Selves Framework11:19 Two Wing Three Drivers13:26 Money Security Roots16:28 Looks Vanity Conditioning20:35 Relational Give To Get22:19 Morning Resentment Loop23:30 The Fixer Timeline Trap24:47 True Self After Self Care25:40 Breaking Autopilot Patterns27:40 Grandma Caregiving Resentment28:37 Not Responsible For Feelings32:29 Ego Death And Inner Voices35:32 Abandonment Wound And Anxiety41:03 Generational Coping And Therapy42:53 Nostalgia Tech And AI Shift44:58 Integration Takeaways Next Steps46:42 Grandmas House Sign OffEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1Listen to the Pod Here:https://open.spotify.com/show/7A3DMdipKzElgEMD47XU6whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enneagram-adventure/id1792658956

    E61: Eight, Too Much, and Vulnerable Echoes

    Holly and Tannah welcome back guest Casey to Enneagram Adventure for an episode focused on Enneagram Type 8 motivations, tying in recent podcast “constructs,” including the “childhood triangle” questions: what you needed to do to get/keep friends, to feel safe, and to feel rewarded (including love). Casey shares that she most resonates with control, not being seen as weak, and learning vulnerability by naming emotions beneath anger and allowing others to help her process things. She describes childhood and teen patterns of protecting quieter friends and her sister, staying constantly busy, withdrawing from conflict to avoid saying something regrettable, and seeking recognition through leadership roles while still feeling “not good enough.” They discuss Midwest culture’s discomfort with bluntness, preferences for written gratitude, awkwardness receiving care, and Casey’s candid reactions to gifts, plus her conflicted feelings about surprise parties. The conversation closes with a brief note about a relay supporting an ultramarathon runner.00:00 Storm Day Pickup Chaos00:31 Casey Returns for Eights02:11 Podcast Intro and Disclaimers03:05 Eight Motivation and Vulnerability05:40 Letting Others Show Up08:37 Gratitude Awkwardness and Logic10:42 Written Words Over Speaking14:14 Childhood Triangle Explained15:16 Friends Protection and Planning17:03 Safety Through Staying Busy19:24 Reward Recognition and Belonging22:52 Invites Belonging and Saying No25:25 Concerts Personal Space Boundaries26:31 The Too Much Question29:22 Midwest vs East Coast Eight30:50 Too Direct in Public31:32 Subtypes and Testing Rooms34:53 Gift Reactions and Gratitude39:19 Surprise Parties and Control41:58 Prom Itinerary and Old Phones43:48 Anger as Secondary Emotion45:07 Unexpected Behavior and Kids47:06 Confidence and Enneagram Typing49:10 Wrap Up and Relay TeaseFollow us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://substack.com/@enneagramadventureListen to the Pod Here:https://open.spotify.com/show/7A3DMdipKzElgEMD47XU6whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enneagram-adventure/id1792658956Email the Podcast : [email protected]

    E60: Botox, Unmet Needs, and the Enneagram Childhood Triangle (Types 2, 5, 8, 9, 3, 6)

    Holly and Tannah open by discussing Holly’s recovery from a recent car accident and how getting Botox improved Tannah's mood, self-perception, and “go with the flow” attitude, including anecdotes about facial movement, post-treatment rules (no lying down or sweating), and a triathlon cyclist whose Botox affected his ability to look up while riding. They then introduce their podcast, Enneagram Adventure, explaining they are IEQ9-certified Enneagram coaches and that the Enneagram measures core motivation. The episode’s topic combines unmet needs with a “childhood triangle” framework—friends, safety, and reward—plus related questions: “Am I safe? Am I loved? Do I matter?” They apply it to types 5 (Holly), 2 (Tannah), 8, 9, 3, and 6, describing childhood dynamics, how each seeks safety/reward and maintains friendships, and how unmet needs can lead to withdrawal, passive aggression, anxiety, or “proving” value; they note they will cover types 4, 1, and 7 later and close with a call to follow, subscribe, and read their new Substack.00:00 Botox Catch Up00:32 Botox And Mood02:13 Frozen Face Stories04:23 Botox Aftercare Tips06:05 Podcast Intro Enneagram07:07 Unmet Needs Triangle09:57 Type Five Childhood Roots14:55 Type Two Reflections23:15 Type Two Unmet Needs25:48 Type Eight Dynamics28:46 Friends Roast Each Other29:25 Lifelong Small Town Crew32:30 Why Eights Need Strength34:02 Nine Peacekeeping Patterns38:37 Three Achievement Rewards43:35 Six Safety And Planning51:20 Wrapping Up And Where To FollowFollow us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://substack.com/@enneagramadventureListen to the Pod Here:https://open.spotify.com/show/7A3DMdipKzElgEMD47XU6whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enneagram-adventure/id1792658956

    E59: Enneagram Centers of Expression (Thinking, Feeling, Action) Explained

    Holly and Tannah open by joking about misshapen sourdough loaves that resemble rabbits, then Holly shares details of a recent car accident in southern Wisconsin where a semi-truck rear-ended her Tesla in a construction-zone merge, crushing the back of the car; she went to urgent care and is physically okay but is dealing with insurance questions, possible totaling, and the emotional aftermath, noting Tesla’s automatic 911 call, driver notifications, and multi-camera footage showing the truck appearing not to brake and hitting twice. They then shift to the episode’s topic: the Enneagram “centers of expression” (also called centers of intelligence), emphasizing development and balancing thinking, feeling, and action, recommending paid assessments like iEQ9 for personalized rankings beyond typical triads. They discuss how centers show up in language, cultural misconceptions about action sounding more confident, and how different center orders can create loops, avoidance, impulsive fixing, or regretful actions.00:00 Rabbit Bread Reveal01:35 Catching Up and Grief02:15 Car Accident Story06:01 Tesla Safety and Footage09:08 Aftermath and Perspective12:29 Centers of Expression Intro14:16 Why Paid Assessments Help16:59 Triads and Personal Nuance19:30 Language of Each Center21:10 Combos and Taking Action25:19 Deciding to Stop Ruminating27:03 Action First People Explained28:21 Thoughts Mistaken for Feelings29:27 First Responders and Reactivity31:05 Repressed Feeling and Regulation33:02 Nature Versus Nurture Debate34:33 Living With an Eight35:56 Fight Flight Freeze Fawn Links37:49 Eight Energy Baby Advice Story41:37 Feeling First Daily Life43:36 Emotional Trash Bin Overflow47:49 Feel Act Fixing Trap49:42 Wrap Up and SupportFollow us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1

    E58: Enneagram Wings Explained: Dominant Wing vs Balanced Wings, Mistypes, and Real-Life Examples

    Ahead of a planned trip to California, Tannah and Holly (both IEQ9-certified Enneagram coaches) open with travel prep, family banter, and a reminder that Enneagram type is about core motivation, not just behavior highlighting how wings can contribute to mistypes (e.g., a person “giving seven vibes” but testing as an eight). They unpack what wings are (only the adjacent numbers) and outline three common wing theories: one dominant wing for life, wings shifting across life stages, or using both wings equally (as an integration goal). Using personal and coaching examples, they discuss how wings show up across the types, including perfectionism in 1-wing energy, 9w1 procrastination, and differences between 8w7 and 8w9, then close with a call to like/subscribe and check out their Substack.00:00 Travel Prep Banter01:58 Beach Plans and Sea Glass02:52 Podcast Intro and Enneagram Basics03:46 Why Wings Get Confusing06:30 What Wings Really Are07:03 Three Wing Theories09:15 Wings in Coaching and Mistypes13:21 Two Wing One vs Three16:01 Nine Wing One Perfectionism20:07 Nine Wing Eight Project Mode22:36 Eight Wing Seven Dynamics25:02 Fasting Crankiness Story26:42 Subtype and Thinking Energy27:35 Do Eights Wing Seven28:39 Social Eight Bear Energy30:01 Seven Wing Eight Edge33:49 Seven Wing Eight In Action37:56 Six Wing Five Similarities39:01 Five Wings and Feeling Work41:53 Four Wings and Creativity44:53 Three Wings Two vs Four47:30 Two Wing Reflections50:08 Wrapping Up and FarewellEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://substack.com/@enneagramadventure

    E57: Willingness, Pain, and Growth: Enneagram Insights for All 9 Types

    Tannah and Holly open with a casual chat about erratic March weather in Wisconsin, parenting challenges, reducing kids’ screen time, and enjoying outdoor activity, including an outdoor Peloton run with inaccurate distance tracking. They mention interest in a new Enneagram workplace book, then introduce their Enneagram Adventure podcast and remind listeners that Enneagram is about core motivation, not behavior. Inspired by a Rich Roll clip, they discuss “willingness” as essential for change and how pain—both involuntary (health scares, loss) and voluntary (exercise, hard conversations, cold plunge, early mornings)—can catalyze willingness. They apply this to each Enneagram type by stance: 3/7/8 must slow down and sit with discomfort; 4/5/9 must stay present and be seen; 1/2/6 must loosen perfectionism, stop overgiving, and tolerate uncertainty. They close by noting you can only work with the willing, asking for reviews, and teasing future merch and a retreat.00:00 March Weather Catchup00:36 Kids Chaos And Screens02:31 Real Life Experiences03:06 Outdoor Peloton Run05:17 New Enneagram Work Book07:02 Podcast Setup And Disclaimer08:18 Willingness And Pain17:43 Voluntary Versus Involuntary21:27 Assertive Types Three Seven Eight29:08 Withdrawing Types Intro29:30 Type Four Seen31:44 Type Five Show Up34:09 Type Nine Change Push39:46 Compliant Stance Overview40:09 Type One Inner Critic42:54 Type Two Overgiving Trap47:27 Type Six Uncertainty Loop50:31 Wrap Up And NextEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://substack.com/@enneagramadventure

    E56: Enneagram Basics Refresher: Core Motivations, Virtues & Orientation to Time (Types 1–9)

    Hosts Tannah and Holly open with upper Midwest weather swings, parenting challenges around kids’ big emotions and screen-time detox, and a story about one child being recognized for helping a classmate and the resulting sibling jealousy. They introduce the podcast’s Enneagram focus and explain that the Enneagram centers on core motivation (deeper than assessments like Myers-Briggs), plus virtues (healthy return to self) and time orientation, not to “put people in a box” but to recognize patterns and offer a path out. They review all nine types by triads: 8 (Challenger: strength/control; virtue innocence; future), 9 (Peacemaker: avoid conflict; virtue right action; past), 1 (Perfectionist: be good; virtue serenity; present), 2 (Helper: be loved/needed; virtue humility; present), 3 (Achiever: success; virtue truthfulness; future), 4 (Individualist: identity/uniqueness; virtue equanimity; past), 5 (competence; virtue non-attachment; past), 6 (security; virtue courage; present), 7 (happiness/avoid pain; virtue sobriety; future). They close with a call to subscribe, review, and follow, mention possible merch, and note a Substack blog version.00:00 Snow Day Chaos00:39 Big Feelings Parenting02:30 Praise And Sibling Rivalry04:21 Podcast Welcome And Setup05:07 Enneagram Basics Refresher07:32 Gut Triad Overview08:05 Type Eight Challenger14:15 Type Nine Peacemaker18:41 Type One Reformer25:19 Heart Triad Begins25:28 Type Two Helper29:21 Two Humility Practice30:59 Two Time Urgency32:10 Three Truthfulness Over Image33:35 Three Future Focus Procrastination36:01 Four Equanimity Grounding37:48 Four Past Romanticizing38:55 Five Competence Nonattachment42:17 Five Reflection Overthinking43:40 Six Courage Preparedness45:46 Six Present Time Paradox46:28 Seven Sobriety Reality49:01 Seven Future Whats Next49:51 Wrap Up Wings MerchEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://enneagramadventure.substack.com/

    E55: Stop Using Your Enneagram Type as an Excuse: Turning “I Am” Labels into Growth

    On the Enneagram Adventure podcast, Tannah and Holly discuss how people turn “I am” statements into identity labels—often using their Enneagram type as an excuse for behavior—rather than using awareness to build new capacity. Citing a therapist’s post, they explain that labels create certainty, but once a pattern becomes “who you are,” you stop challenging it and start protecting it. They explore examples across types: ones using perfectionism or being “hard to read,” twos excusing overhelping as caring, threes using adaptability in ways that can feel inauthentic, fours attaching to emotions and avoiding hard conversations, fives identifying with not knowing enough, sixes over-planning worst-case scenarios, sevens avoiding discomfort to stay fun and free, eights resisting control even in small requests, and nines avoiding conflict by default. They invite listeners to reflect, share experiences, and follow the show on platforms and Substack.00:00 Spring Forward Chaos00:19 Solo Parenting Storm Night02:33 Doomscrolling And Creating03:35 Podcast Intro And Enneagram04:30 Excuses And I Am Labels08:52 Type Two And Five Patterns10:16 Post On Identity Labels16:53 Childhood Labels And Maturity20:52 Type One Perfection Stories24:58 Type Three Chameleon Energy31:01 Boundaries Feel Clunky31:53 Type Four Identity Labels32:51 Four Emotions Rollercoaster35:26 People Pleasing Confrontations37:29 Parenting Emotions Left Out38:43 Type Six Prepared Anxiety40:20 Worst Case Scenario Planning43:44 Type Seven Fun Freedom47:19 Type Eight Control Resistance52:47 Type Nine Conflict Avoidance55:20 Wrap Up Listener TakeawaysEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://substack.com/@enneagramadventureListen to the Pod Here:https://open.spotify.com/show/7A3DMdipKzElgEMD47XU6whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enneagram-adventure/id1792658956

    E54: “I’m the Problem”: Enneagram Self-Awareness, Triggers, and Owning Your Patterns

    In this episode of Enneagram Adventure, Tannah and Holly discuss a social media post titled “I’m the Problem” (from Aligned Soul Co) as a potentially triggering but useful prompt for self-awareness, emphasizing the Enneagram as a tool for understanding core motivation (“your why”), not just behavior. They read and react to “I’m the problem” statements for multiple types—starting with Eight (bulldozing, testing people, accidental intimidation), then Two (keeping score and “buying” love), Five (protecting energy by shutting down or disappearing), Four (making feelings others’ responsibility and using depth to create distance), Six (creating the chaos they fear and anxiety spreading), Nine (peacekeeping through avoidance and silent resentment), Seven (avoiding heaviness with constant optimism and exits), Three (performing to be impressive and turning connection into competition), and One (high standards and feedback that makes others feel wrong). They close by noting everyone has growth work and inviting listeners to like, subscribe, comment, and share.00:00 Tea Wisdom Banter01:22 Podcast Intro Enneagram Basics02:23 Why Self Awareness Matters03:23 Im The Problem Setup06:05 Type Eight Reality Check08:16 Eight Tension Truth Bombs12:28 Type Two Keeping Score16:25 Two Work Recognition Currency18:18 Type Five Disappearing Walls20:55 Runaway Coping Mode22:41 Enneagram Four Zingers26:34 Sixes Testing And Anxiety30:41 Nines Avoiding Realness33:53 Sevens Escaping Heavy Stuff36:30 Threes Performing To Win39:40 Ones High Standards And Critique45:29 Awareness And Wrap UpEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://substack.com/@enneagramadventureListen to the Pod Here:https://open.spotify.com/show/7A3DMdipKzElgEMD47XU6whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enneagram-adventure/id1792658956

    E53: One-Year Podcast Anniversary: Spotting Growth Opportunities by Enneagram Type

    Tannah and Holly celebrate the one-year anniversary of their Enneagram Adventure podcast (recorded February 21st), thank listeners, and share plans for upcoming guests, including an Enneagram 4 author and a longtime Enneagram 5 listener, plus a possible sibling episode featuring a 9. They discuss real-life updates: Tannah’s exhaustion from a month of sick kids, stretching and folding sourdough during the recording (starter named Rocco), learning baking lessons, and processing grief after Bentley’s death, including receiving his ashes and putting a deposit on a future beagle puppy. They introduce the episode’s topic: recognizing uncomfortable “growth moments,” staying present, and turning awareness into action instead of repeating patterns, framed through Enneagram core motivations. They walk through several types and how growth can show up: 5s escaping into their head and practicing “stay in the room”; 2s feeling it in the body and tending to walk away or double down; 3s multitasking or barreling through discomfort and considering their move to 6; 7s rushing toward feeling better and their move to 5; 1s doubling down on rules and humility that can become resentment; 4s quickly identifying feelings but needing to avoid getting stuck and separating identity from emotion; 8s shifting into anger or withdrawal and growing by moving toward 2-like awareness of others’ needs (illustrated through Tannah’s husband supporting her during a hard month); 9s avoiding conflict and telling themselves stories instead of staying to work through solvable issues; and 6s over-planning, chaining meanings together, and attaching events to themselves when they may not be personal. They close with anniversary gratitude, a request for likes, shares, subscriptions, reviews, and comments, and an invitation to reach out with questions or to be a future guest.00:00 One-Year Podcast Anniversary + Thank You to Listeners01:34 Upcoming Guests & Sibling Episode Ideas02:34 Exhaustion, Sick Kids, and Real-Life Podcasting03:26 Sourdough Stretch-and-Fold, Starter ‘Rocco,’ and Baking Wins05:27 Grief Update: Bentley’s Ashes & Getting a New Beagle06:38 Show Intro: What Enneagram Adventure Is About07:42 Today’s Topic: Noticing Growth Moments and Staying Present08:48 Personal Examples: Exhaustion, Triggers, and ‘Growth Opportunities’13:21 Two & Five Patterns: Body Signals vs. Escaping to the Head15:40 Staying Present as a Five + Inner Monologue & Being Called Out22:22 Applying It to Other Types: Starting with Threes (and Sevens)25:28 When Discomfort Turns Sharp: Pausing Instead of Striking Back25:55 Growth Lines for 3s & 7s: Slow Down, Get Thoughtful (6 and 5)27:17 Same Behavior, Different ‘Why’: Core Motivations of Threes vs Sevens28:46 Ones Under Stress: Rule-Following, Perfectionism, and Living in the Gray30:10 Giving Ones Credit: Humility, Resentment, and Scorekeeping32:35 Fours & Feeling Misunderstood: Find Evidence of Support33:45 Don’t Become the Feeling: Separating Identity from Emotion35:09 Personal Rabbit Hole: Letting Go of the ‘Broken’ Identity36:27 Eights in Real Life: Grief, Avoiding the Moment, and Moving Toward Two41:09 Nines & Conflict Avoidance: Stay in the Room (Plus a Movie Analogy)44:58 Sixes: Planning, Chaining Stories, and When It’s ‘Not That Deep’47:41 Wrap-Up & Anniversary Banter: ASMR Jokes, Sourdough Talk, and Call to ActionEmail the Podcast : [email protected] us:https://www.instagram.com/enneagramadventure/https://www.tiktok.com/@enneagram.adventu?_t=ZT-8tydSisg9ra&_r=1https://substack.com/@enneagramadventureListen to the Pod Here:https://open.spotify.com/show/7A3DMdipKzElgEMD47XU6whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enneagram-adventure/id1792658956
