In episode 26 of The Cult Next Door Podcast, titled “Inside the Enneagram: Understanding Cult Influence”, hosts Mattie and Ashleigh dive into the world of cults and undue influence with Lindsay Taylor, LMFT, who brings her expertise in utilizing the Enneagram within her counseling practice. In Part 1 of this two part series, Lindsay sheds light on how susceptibility to high control groups intersects with Enneagram types, highlighting the connections between personality traits and vulnerability to manipulation. 

The episode opens with an introduction to Lindsay and her unique approach to therapy through the lens of the Enneagram. She explains the basic principles of this personality typing system and its applications in understanding human behavior, motivations, and fears. In describing each type, Lindsay notes the circumstances by which each type could fall prey to undue influence. 


Lindsay skillfully navigates through the complexities of personality dynamics, discussing how certain types may be drawn to charismatic leaders and ideologies that promise belonging and purpose. She also touches upon the role of trauma and past experiences in shaping an individual's susceptibility to manipulation. 


The discussion culminates in an examination of which Enneagram types might be more likely to emerge as cult leaders themselves. Lindsay's expertise and compassionate approach provide listeners with a deeper understanding of the intricate interplay between personality, influence, and group dynamics.
