Finding Your Enneagram Type podcast episode on Enneagram at Work

If you’ve ever taken a quick Enneagram quiz and walked away thinking, “Hmm, maybe…?” - you’re not alone. 

In this short episode, we’re unpacking the most reliable way to discover your true Enneagram type, especially when you're trying to figure it out through the lens of your professional life.

We’ll cover:

  • Why work behavior can sometimes mask your real type
  • How to narrow down your top contenders manually
  • Why “feeling called out” is actually a great sign
  • Our favorite tools: from self-reflection to paid assessments
  • What to ask your coworkers or manager to get outside insight

Plus, we’ll share how to access our free question-based quiz and a paid assessment option for those ready to dig deeper.
