Scientific Enneagram | Launch

We sit down with Danielle Fuller, creator of Scientific Enneagram, to preview her brand-new podcast coming to our channel in January 2026. Subscribe : on iTunes or on Spotify . Danielle is an engineer and a systems thinker who sees a huge gap between the world of Enneagram teaching and the world of science and research. Her passion is to become a bridge-builder between those two spaces, helping us ask better questions, see the limits of what we know, and slowly build a real body of work around Enneagram and science. In this conversation we talk about: Why doing good science with the Enneagram is so hard (self-reporting, motives vs. behavior, and the limits of current tools)How psychology has moved through introspection, behaviorism, psychoanalysis, and the cognitive revolution—and where the Enneagram might fit in that storyThe tension between qualitative narrative work (like panels and coaching) and quantitative data (stats, brain scans, validated scales)The ways cultural bias shows up in psychological research (WEIRD samples, Western assumptions, college-student data) and what that means for a tool that claims to describe 8 billion peopleWhy motive may be one of the most important things science could study—and how the Enneagram offers a lens, not the final word We also get into funding, grad students, file-drawer problems, conspiracy thinking, and why Danielle is doing this as a passion project even though there’s basically no money in it. If you’re a scientist, grad student, therapist, or researcher who’s Enneagram-informed (or even Enneagram-skeptical) and want to talk, Danielle would love to hear from you: hello@scientificenneagram.com I’m genuinely thrilled about this show. My hope is that The Scientific Enneagram becomes a hub for serious conversations about motive, method, and what we can actually know when we bring the Enneagram into the lab.

"The Shawshank Redemption" | Part I | 30th Anniversary Re-release

First! The link to all our Patreon material is HERE The Link to our Youtube work is HERE On October 14, 1994, two of the greatest American films were released. The Shawshank Redemption, an adaptation of Stephen King's novella, was the directorial debut of Frank Darabont. Though it opened in only 33 theaters and won no Academy Awards, it now holds the #1 spot on IMDb’s list of the greatest films of all time. In 2020, TJ and I wrapped our Enneagram and Villainy series with a deep dive into this timeless classic, exploring the story’s primary antagonist, Warden Norton, through the lens of an Enneagram Nine. The second film, Pulp Fiction, was the highly anticipated follow-up from Quentin Tarantino. Regularly ranked alongside Shawshank as one of the most important films since the 1970s, Pulp Fiction is a dark, ensemble piece filled with characters in desperate need of redemption. In celebration of the 30th anniversary of these iconic films, we’re excited to present a double feature. First up, our recut deep dive into The Shawshank Redemption. You can also explore our Enneagram villain series on our sister podcast feed, Movie Typing, linked in the show notes. Whether you’re curious about villainous Nines, Fours, or Sevens, it’s well worth a listen. Next week, we'll release our treatment of Pulp Fiction, focusing on the inner lives of Enneagram Fives, Eights, Fours, Sixes, and Ones.

Going for depth in our discussion of the Enneagram

MENTAL HEALTH
The Enneagram is a map of the human personality. It’s a tool for navigating relationships. It creates language for what motivates us and helps us look at the way we look at everything else. Most importantly the enneagram is a mirror; because sometimes you need help seeing yourself.
