Enneagram Type 2s, nicknamed The Helper, are all about taking care of others and having deep intimate connections so they can feel really close and loved. They also have a hard time giving others space or seeing their own needs. Famous examples include Fred Rogers, Sally Field, and Stevie Wonder.

In this episode, we explore the essence of the Type 2 and the insecurities and motivations that drive their every action and relationship. We walk you through the story of the Type 2’s life by looking at their journey through the Levels of Consciousness from their healthiest to their average to their most destructive ways of operating. We close the episode by offering a critical type-tailored practice to help 2s rise up in consciousness and be the best version of themselves.  

This episode is designed to help Type 2s thrive in their personal and professional lives by fostering a deeper understanding of their insecurities and motivations. It’s also an invaluable resource for friends, partners, and colleagues of Type 2s who wish to better support and relate to them.
