Type 2: Healing Helpers with Hunter Mobley

About this sermon

Today on Everything Belongs we're joined by author and Enneagram teacher Hunter Mobley, (https://www.huntermobley.com/)  to explore Type Two on the Enneagram — “the helper.” Type Twos excel at offering deep empathy, generosity, loyalty, and a strong desire to care for others. However, there’s also a shadow side to this type; they may struggle with boundaries, have hidden expectations for validation, or carry resentment from giving too much to others.  Fr. Richard explains that many Twos learn early in life to earn love through caretaking. Hunter expands on how cultural expectations, gender roles, and spirituality can shape or mask each of the Enneagram types, with particular emphasis on the Two.   Tune in to discover how the Enneagram is not just about personality typing, but about transformation and solidarity. Welcome to a journey that helps reveal how everything — and everyone — belongs.  Find the transcript for this episode here.

They are “other-directed” people, whose well-being depends on how their environment reacts to them.   We all have this same concern, to some degree. It grows out of the mirroring we received or didn’t receive as a child when we were first developing our sense of identity. “Who am I in your eyes?” is a central question for Enneagram type twos.  Read more on Type Two here.
