Threes often hear praise like “you’ve got it all together” as “you’re a fraud.” In this episode, Damon and Kelly unpack how seemingly harmless comments can trigger imposter syndrome for Enneagram 3s, and what to say instead. Learn phrases that affirm a Three’s worth beyond performance, how to set/receive boundaries with care, and simple ways to show appreciation that actually lands. Plus, a few real-life stories (porch mums included) and a reminder that rest, not more doing, is the path to health for 3s.
Things to say to a type 3:
“I love the heart and integrity you bring to this.”
“I value you for who you are, not just what you get done.”
“You don’t have to impress me, you’re already enough.”
“Thank you for all you did today, and even if nothing got checked off, you still matter to me.”
