Hello, world! I recently took a test called the Enneagram and discovered that I am a Type 2: The Helper. I won't go into too much detail, but this classification aligns well with my personality and values. One of the challenges I face is that I often prioritize others' needs over my own, which can lead to issues like compassion fatigue, stress, and burnout. I don't want to feel guilty about taking care of myself, as I know it's not selfish. In my line of work, I need empathy and compassion to listen without judgment, even on days when I'm not feeling my best. I still have some work to do to fully understand what this means for me. Interestingly, I took the test twice, and both times I received the same result. I’ll keep you updated on my reflections and will be mindful to take care of myself first.
