Type 2 – Considerate Helper

Twos have an innate capacity to help, support and meet the needs of others. Sometimes they know what you need, before you even know that you need it!

They are loving, warm, giving humans with a focus on others. Their people-orientation can lead to their own need for affirmation, where being ‘taken for granted’ or going unappreciated may trigger their anger and heightened sensitivity.

Their helpful nature can become excessive if they are not aware of it, as they become too involved in other people’s lives or business and may risk being manipulative in their ‘need to be needed’.

Their growth lies in giving unconditionally and putting their needs first in order to nurture themselves and regenerate their capacity to then care for others. As the safety instructions say “please put your oxygen mask on first, before helping others”.
