You might know you’re a Two... or maybe people have always told you you’re “just so nice.”
But not every friendly, emotionally attuned person is a Type Two, and not every Two is made of sunshine and homemade heart-shaped cookies.
Type Twos are wired for connection. They’re tuned into the needs of others, often before those needs are even spoken. But the desire to help, be close, and feel loved can sometimes look like other types, especially those who are service-oriented, empathetic, or image-conscious.
