Working with Type 3:
Type 3s often adapt to situations. They read their audience and change their approach to match those personas. They are hard-working and usually bring hope and integrity to their work.
Are you a Type 3?:
As your coach, I would help you work on your image and your perception of yourself. 3s can often lose touch with their innermost desires and keep strong feelings to themselves – or maybe not even be aware that they have them. Feelings of anger and sadness are normal and it is okay to show them. It is important to remember that you don’t need to ‘earn’ your rest and showing up authentically will allow for deeper connections.
