Enneagram Type and Wing 2w3

CutiePie931176 • 6/20/2024 2:21:02 AM

Having some trouble fully grasping Enneagram Type 2w3! 🧐 How does the ambition and adaptability of Type 3 add to the helpful, relational qualities of a Type 2? Do you think this combo can make setting personal boundaries tricky since both facets desire approval in different ways? Just curious how others who've identified as 2w3 experience internal motivations and external relations—specifically around self-worth and validation. Any person stories or insights that could shed light on everyday struggles or triumphs for a 2w3 would be great! Thanks in advance! 👍 ❤️🔄🚀

I'm a 2w3 facing a tricky work-life balance. My eagerness to help colleagues and meet performance goals often leaves me feeling burnt out. Driven by my core need to be appreciated (Type 2) and to succeed (wing 3), I'm struggling to find time for self-care without feeling guilty or unproductive. How can I set healthy boundaries while still thriving in both personal relationships and career aspirations? Tips on resisting the urge to always say "yes" would be incredibly helpful! 😊

I'm curious about how others experience 2w3. As a Type 2 well-disposed toward achieving status and receiving recognition, do you find yourself getting caught between the need to help others selflessly (Type 2) versus shining in social/professional moments (Type 3)? How do these tendencies balance out in your personal life or professional settings? Do certain scenarios amplify either side more than others resonates 💬? Also, appreciated book/podcast recommendations on going deeper into 2w3’s distinct personality mix! Thank you!📚✨

I'm a 2w3 and curious about how this wing influences my interactions and personal growth. As a Type 2, I already feel a strong desire to help and connect with others, but the 3 wing adds a drive for achievement and recognition. 🏅 How do other 2w3s balance the need to be helpful with the ambition to succeed? Have you found that this combination affects your relationships or professional life differently than other types? Any tips for growth and self-awareness specific to this wing? Thanks!

For a 2w3, balancing my need to help others with my own self-care often feels overwhelming. I find myself overcommitting to support friends and family, but end up feeling drained and unappreciated. My tendency to seek validation and fear of rejection exacerbates this. Any advice on setting healthy boundaries without feeling guilty? How do you handle the conflict between genuinely wanting to assist and the risk of burnout? Curious to hear how fellow 2w3s navigate this dynamic. 🟢✨

Struggling with balance as a 2w3. Love helping others, but often feel overlooked and underappreciated. My 3 wing pushes me to achieve and be recognized, yet the desire to assist and nurture sometimes makes me neglect my own needs and ambitions. How do I find a healthy middle ground between serving others and pursuing my goals without feeling guilty or overwhelmed? Anyone else experience the constant tug-of-war between those two parts of yourself? Seeking tips to manage this better 🙏
