Beyond Your Number
Enneagram + Lent, What to Give Up or Add for Each Type (1–9)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We start with lint (dryer fires and all), then realize we mean Lent, and we actually go there.
If you’ve never practiced Lent, or you grew up doing it and still aren’t sure what to do with it, this episode makes it simple. Kelly connects Jesus’ three temptations to the Enneagram triads (gut, head, heart), then gives practical Lent invitations for every Enneagram type (1–9), including whether you should give something up or add something in for the next 40 days. Spoiler, 7s get a “Sunday loophole,” 8s have to talk about feelings, and 9s… have to get uncomfortable.
In this episode:
- Lent vs lint (yes, we went there)
- The 40 days, Ash Wednesday, and why Lent is about making space
- Jesus’ three temptations mapped to gut, head, and heart
- Practical Lent ideas for Types 1–9 (including a real plan for 9s)
- Why 7s need a “Sunday loophole,” why 8s must process feelings, and why 1s should practice imperfection
If you’ve never practiced Lent, or you’ve done it forever, this is a simple way to approach it using the Enneagram without making it weird.
