When Love Had to Be Earned: The Childhood Wound of Enneagram Type Two

What this episode covers

What happens when a child learns that love comes from being helpful? In this episode of STILL YOU, we explore the childhood wound of Enneagram Type Two — the moment when connection became something to earn instead of something to receive. We unpack: How Type Twos learned to prioritize others' needs over their own Why helping became a survival strategy How this wound shows up in adult relationships, friendships, and self-worth Why resentment, exhaustion, and feeling unappreciated are so common for Twos Practical, compassionate steps to heal the wound and reconnect with your own needs This conversation isn't about giving less love. It's about finally including yourself in it. If you're an Enneagram Type Two — or love someone who is — this episode offers clarity, validation, and a path toward deeper, healthier connection.
