The editor redraws constantly. Take the code out of the change check and evaluate the enumValueIndex of the seriallized property.

Like so;

using UnityEngine;

public class EditorEnum : MonoBehaviour
{
    public enum MyEnums
    {
        Value0,
        Value1,
        Value2
    }

    public MyEnums MyEnum;
}

using UnityEditor;

[CustomEditor(typeof(EditorEnum))]
public class EditorEnumEditor : Editor
{
    private SerializedProperty _enum;

    private void OnEnable()
    {
        _enum = serializedObject.FindProperty("MyEnum");
    }

    public override void OnInspectorGUI()
    {
        serializedObject.Update();

        EditorGUI.BeginChangeCheck();

        EditorGUILayout.PropertyField(_enum);

        switch (_enum.enumValueIndex)
        {
            case 0:
                EditorGUILayout.LabelField("Value is 0");
                break;
            case 1:
                EditorGUILayout.LabelField("Value is 1");
                break;
            case 2:
                EditorGUILayout.LabelField("Value is 2");
                break;
            default:
                EditorGUILayout.LabelField("Value is Unknown");
                break;
        }

        if(EditorGUI.EndChangeCheck())
        {
            serializedObject.ApplyModifiedProperties();
        }

    }
}

Are you telling me I should not call the function in my target script from my editor script? Because I kinda need to, the way you have it set up, is similar to the way I had it before, but it causes another problem. Let me make another video on this.

I talked about my original problem a little bit in this post:
