Greetings! 🌟 I've been on my Enneagram journey for a while now, and it's been quite the eye-opener. I'm a Type 2 (The Helper), and understanding this has really shifted how I view my relationships. 🤗 Before diving into the Enneagram, I often felt overwhelmed by my need to help others, sometimes to the point of neglecting my own needs. Learning about Type 2 helped me realize that while it's great to be supportive, it's also crucial to set boundaries and practice self-care. 🛑💆♀️ One significant change was in how I communicate with loved ones. Instead of assuming they need my help or waiting for them to ask, I now openly discuss boundaries and needs. This has led to healthier, more balanced relationships where both parties feel valued and respected. 💬❤️ Another big realization was understanding why I sometimes felt unappreciated or taken for granted. Recognizing this pattern allowed me to address it directly rather than letting resentment build up. It's been liberating! 🎉 Overall, the Enneagram has provided a framework for personal growth and deeper connections with others. Can't wait to hear more stories from this awesome community! 🌈✨ #EnneagramJourney #PersonalGrowth
Hey there! 🌟 Diving into the Enneagram has been a game-changer for me. As a Type 9, I used to avoid conflict at all costs, which often led to bottling up my feelings and eventually feeling overwhelmed. 😅 Understanding my type helped me realize the importance of voicing my needs and setting boundaries. 🛑✨ One significant change was in my relationship with my partner, who is a Type 8. We used to clash because I would withdraw and they would push harder for a response. Now, knowing our types, we communicate more effectively—I'm more assertive, and they give me space when needed. 👫💬 It's brought us closer and made our bond stronger. Another realization was about self-care. I learned that it's okay to prioritize myself sometimes without feeling guilty. This shift in perspective has made me happier and more balanced overall. 🌈🧘♂️ Can't wait to hear other stories from this awesome community!
