Let’s be real—your personality is basically the unofficial CEO of your business. It decides how you plan, promote, create, and sometimes… spiral. And that’s where the Enneagram swoops in with all the tea.
If you’ve ever wondered why you’re obsessed with Canva templates while your biz bestie thrives in chaos, it’s time to meet your Paint Party Enneagram Type.
Ready to find out which one you are? You might spot your clients, biz besties, or even your inner marketing alter ego in here too.

Type 1: The Reformer – The Detail Diva

You color-code your calendar, and your idea of a wild night is reorganizing your supply closet. You genuinely enjoy the business side of things, but perfectionism can stall your progress.

Try This: Launch before you’re “ready.” That Instagram caption doesn’t need to be Pulitzer-worthy. Progress over perfection, always.

Type 2: The Helper – The Heart-Centered Hustler

You love making people feel special, and your parties are basically therapy with paintbrushes. You’re the queen of DMs, thank-you notes, and checking in on your guests. But when it’s time to talk pricing? You hesitate.

Try This: Boundaries are beautiful. Create a rate sheet and stick to it—your energy is a limited resource, and it deserves to be protected.

Type 3: The Achiever – The Marketing Queen

Your camera roll is 90% flatlays, and your idea of fun is scheduling Reels for the next month. You’re ambitious, results-driven, and maybe a little addicted to the thrill of a sold-out event.

Try This: Celebrate small wins before you jump to the next thing. Your goals deserve more than a two-second happy dance.

Type 4: The Individualist – The Creative Visionary

No cookie-cutter parties for you. You crave meaning, mood, and a little magic in everything you create. Your events have soul… but so do your doubts.

Try This: Focus on your art, your story, your voice. You’re not behind—you’re building something unforgettable.

Type 5: The Investigator – The Quiet Strategist

You’ve got 17 Google Docs, 42 tabs open, and you just signed up for another free business challenge. Research is your comfort zone—but action? That’s another story.

Try This: Pick one thing this week to try. Hosting your first party teaches you more than reading your 87th how-to blog ever will.

Type 6: The Loyalist – The Safety Net Queen

You’re reliable, thoughtful, and your customers can feel how much you care. Your biggest fear? Making the wrong move or disappointing someone.

Try This: You’ve got everything you need already. Confidence isn’t something you find—it’s something you build through action.

Type 7: The Enthusiast – The Creative Wild Child

Ideas? You have a million. Energy? Through the roof. Your parties are full of color, laughter, and sometimes a little chaos. Systems and consistency? Not your favorite.

Try This: Automate what bores you. Scheduling tools, templates, and checklists can keep you on track without stifling your spark

Type 8: The Challenger – The Take-Charge Trailblazer

You’re bold, decisive, and not afraid to carve your own path. You’ve got vision, guts, and big goals. But you may struggle to let go of control.

Try This: Delegation isn’t a weakness—it’s a power move. Hand off a few tasks so you can stay focused on your zone of genius.

Type 9: The Peacemaker – The Chill Queen

You create calm, cozy, feel-good experiences that people genuinely love. Your events feel like a deep breath—but when it’s time to sell or set pricing? You freeze.

Try This: Think of selling as an invitation, not a transaction. Your talent has value, and it’s okay to ask for what you’re worth.

So, What’s Your Type?

Whether you’re a glitter-loving Seven or a spreadsheet-obsessed Five, every type brings something powerful to the table. The secret to success? Learning how to work with your personality—not against it.

Feeling inspired (and maybe a little called out)?
Then it’s time to stop just dreaming about your paint party business and actually make it happen.
