There was a time Stephanie believed she was a Type 3. She was successful, driven, and always showing up. But deep down, something didn’t add up (ok and maybe my 8 told her in passing "huh? No you're not!") — then about a year ago, everything shifted. In this episode, we’re getting honest about what happens when you’ve been living as a version of yourself that isn’t actually you. Yall KNOW how I feel about tests and mistyping.

Stephanie is a true Enneagram 5—someone who wakes up with a fixed amount of energy, sees the world through systems, and needs deep, restorative solitude to thrive. Once she uncovered her real type, it was like watching someone come home to themselves. Her identity, her rhythms, and even her nervous system recalibrated. And y’all… the transformation has been incredible.

This episode is personal, practical, and packed with insight—especially if you’ve ever felt like you’re hustling in a body that’s quietly begging you to slow down.

Here’s what we get into:

• The cost of mistyping your Enneagram (and why I’d rather you not take a test)
• How Fives manage their energy, emotions, and relationships
• What it really looks like to parent, work, and live as a Type 5
• How to recover when you’ve been pushing past your limits for years
• What to say to a Five, about a Five, or if you are one

Whether you’re a Five or love one, this conversation will help you see their brilliance—and maybe even understand your own a little better.
