![]() The fact that they lack a wing in a different Center/Triad makes self-awareness much more difficult.

It makes them feel good to give wholeheartedly of themselves and they do so to advance the experiences and lives of those they care about. ![]() They want to offer all their good qualities and advice to others. They often like to be the host or hostess and gather people in their homes or out at parties. Because they are innately more social, they have more socially pleasing manners than 2w1s-they are charismatic, alluring, chatty, versatile, adventurous, and generally pleasant to be around. 2w3s seek security by trying to foster as many relationships as possible and by supporting those they love. They will be more driven by their feelings (often unconscious) and the feelings of others. This can lead to bodily neglect, eating disorders, or extreme exercise regimens.Ģw3s are solidly in the Heart Triad, therefore they will be more good-humored and social than 2w1s. In extreme duress, the 2w1 can even begin to neglect their bodies, melding together the body shame of Type Twos and the strive toward physical perfection of Type Ones. They toil away for others but often resent the fact they are not recognized for their work. Type Twos have trouble recognizing their own feelings and needs, and the 1w makes them further think that personal desire is somehow wrong or selfish. 2w1s in stress can also struggle with severely judging themselves.

Their generosity is often turned toward social justice and they truly wish to change the world for the better through their efforts. Their desire to do good in the world and to meet the needs of others is amplified by the 1w motivation of correctness. Type 2w1s are the warm, generous, loving people you’d expect, with a shade of moral obligation and resolve thrown into the mix. They know you very well, but when healthy, also know themselves well, maintaining good boundaries and practicing self-care. They can sense emotions with clarity and precision and are in the Heart Triad, meaning they experience the world through the lens of feeling and relationships.
