The type two's focus is their relationships with others. They spend their time wondering what they could/should be doing to help others + show that they care. Two's can lose sight of their own needs in their efforts to please others.

The type two inner critic believes that they are good and ok if they are putting other people's needs ahead of their own. If they don't receive positive feedback for their actions, two's assume that they haven't done enough to earn love.

This can also cause resentful feelings within the two when they aren't getting the praise they desire and expect for their actions.

Twos struggle with pride, which comes out as thinking they know whats best + that they are better than others. They also struggle meeting their own needs. In the quest for self-sacrifice, twos can find themselves people pleasing, rescuing, and martyring themselves.

They can also be possessive, wanting attention + closeness, while becoming upset if that is not reciprocated, and they are not getting the approval they seek.

While twos (like all the types) face many challenges, the news isn't all bad! Twos care + service makes the world go round! In a world that can be fast-paced + cruel, we need the empathy + nurture of type twos.

They help us remember to care for one another, and remind us that our needs are important. And when you need a helping hand, its always nice to know that somewhere out there, a two is ready to spring into action ;)
