It popped up in The White Lotus, has reached peak celebrity level in Hollywood with everyone from Taylor Swift to Jennifer Anniston a fan, and is the latest personality test we’re using to put ourselves neatly into boxes (because chaos is exhausting). Welcome to the resurgence of the Enneagram.
On today's episode, Jessie, Holly and friend of the pod, Claire Murphy discuss why, for some, it's just a numbers game, and for others, the Enneagram is a map by which to live.

And in Best & Worst: a celeb’s viral video that's very Holly.com, a cursed algorithm that haunts our hosts, and a wholesome Saturday night family feast.
