What makes you tick, and why? In this episode of Guided by Third Wheel, we dive into the powerful framework of the Enneagram with our first-ever guest, Kate Smith.

Kate unpacks the 9 types in a way that’s both accessible and deeply insightful. Whether you’re new to the Enneagram or already on a self-discovery path, this conversation offers clarity and compassion for who we are, and who we’re becoming.

We explore:

• The difference between what you do and why you do it

• Why core motivations matter more than surface behavior

• How anger, shame, and fear show up across different Enneagram centers

• How understanding others’ types deepens relationships

Plus, we talk through next steps for diving deeper into your own growth journey.
