Type two
TRIAD
The Enneagram Type 2, also known as "The Helper," is part of the Feeling Triad, along with Type 3 and Type 4. The Feeling Triad is characterized by a focus on emotions, relationships, and self-identity.
Type 2 individuals in this triad are primarily motivated by a need to be needed and to help others. They are often very empathetic and compassionate, and may go out of their way to support and care for their loved ones. However, they may also struggle with setting boundaries and prioritizing their own needs, as they may feel guilty or selfish for doing so.
Type 2s often have a strong desire to be seen as helpful and valuable to others, and may base their self-worth on how much they are needed by others. They may be very skilled at anticipating the needs of others and may take on a caregiving role in their personal and professional relationships.
Type 2s may also have a tendency to repress their own needs and desires, as they may feel that these are less important than the needs of others. This can lead to feelings of resentment and burnout, as well as a lack of awareness of their own emotional states.
Overall, Type 2s in the Feeling Triad are motivated by their emotional connections with others, and may prioritize relationships and emotional connection over other areas of their lives. They may benefit from developing a stronger sense of self-worth that is not solely based on their ability to help others, as well as setting clear boundaries and communicating their own needs and desires more effectively.
