In all my years of working with women in the Dressing Your Truth<\/a> system, the #1 “mis-Typed” group is Type 2! This means there’s a whole lot of women who consider themselves to be Type 2\u2014but they’re really not!<\/p>\n

There are two main reasons why this happens when women determine their Type<\/a>. Let’s first look at the expression of Type 2 energy. <\/p>\n

Type 2 energy is fluid and flowing. If you have a dominant Type 2 movement, you are naturally calming, inviting, subdued, and sensitive.<\/p>\n

The dominant shapes in Type 2 facial features<\/a> are elongated S curves, ovals, and softened rectangles.<\/p>\n

Type 2 energy is an introvert expression, moving in a subtle and connected flow to create in this world. This naturally subdued, connected, flowing movement can be consistently observed through aspects of your feminine experience. <\/p>\n

Sounds like a sweet woman, doesn’t it? <\/p>\n

This is one of the reasons why women mis-Type themselves as a Type 2!<\/h3>\n

Our society has conditioned women to believe that this particular expression is the “ideal woman.” For generations, women were expected to be soft, accommodating, quiet, and reserved. <\/p>\n

Nowadays, women mistakingly Type themselves in that group because they either want to be, or have tried to be, that kind of woman.<\/p>\n

But there’s another reason why so many women mis-Type themselves as Type 2.<\/h3>\n

It’s because they have misinterpreted their own dominant Type’s expression. They have too narrow of an interpretation of their (true) Type’s energy!<\/p>\n

Type 1: The Bright, Light, Animated Woman<\/h4>\n

:<\/p>\n

If you have a dominant Type 1 movement, you have an upward, light energy. You are naturally inspiring, fun-loving and hopeful. <\/p>\n

Your dominant shapes in Type 1 facial features<\/a> are animated shapes, like a circle, heart and the points of a star. <\/p>\n

So many Type 1 women mistake themselves as Type 2 because they misunderstand their “light” quality\u2014they think it looks like the “soft” quality of Type 2. <\/p>\n

Meagan, a cute Type 1 woman, agrees with this:<\/p>\n

\"Type<\/p>\n

“I thought I was a Type 2 because I thought that’s what I was “supposed” to be. I related to everything and I felt safe there. But one day I woke up and realized I was a Type 1 and suddenly, I felt more awake and alive than I ever had in my life. It was so liberating! I LOVE the person I feel free to be!”<\/em><\/p>\n

Type 3: The Rich, Dynamic Woman<\/h4>\n

:<\/p>\n

If you have a dominant Type 3 movement, you have an active\/reactive energy. You are naturally dynamic, sure, and purposeful. <\/p>\n

Your dominant shapes in Type 3 facial features<\/a> are angles, triangles, and asymmetrical shapes.<\/p>\n

Sometimes Type 3 women are naturally quiet, so they can think, “I’m not Type 3 enough!” They misunderstand Type 3 energy as being always loud, go-go-go, or intense. <\/p>\n

Anne, a hot Type 3 woman shares:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“I thought I was a Type 2\/3, but I’m a 3\/2. I had first defaulted to my personality traits of being quieter and detailed. But I always felt like I was a determined person. Looking at childhood photos of myself helped me to see my Type.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Type 4: The Bold, Striking Woman<\/h4>\n

:<\/p>\n

If you have a dominant Type 4 movement, you have a constant, exact energy. You are reflective, concise, and clear. <\/p>\n

The dominant shapes in your Type 4 facial features<\/a> are elongated ovals with straight sides,
\nparallel lines in any direction.<\/p>\n

Both Type 2 and Type 4 are lower movements in the Energy Profiling system, so it’s common for Type 4 women to place themselves in the Type 2 world for a while. <\/p>\n

Jackie, a stunning Type 4 woman shares:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“I have always been very sensitive and keenly aware of other people’s needs and feelings. I value comfort and quiet and being around those I love most. After spending lots of time with Lifestyle<\/a> and reflecting on what I was like at my core (an orderly, loyal perfectionist), I realized that I am clearly a Type 4. So happy to now be living my truth!<\/em>”<\/p>\n

What does a Type 2 woman look, act, and feel like?<\/h3>\n

\"Caitlin<\/p>\n

Type 2 Caitlin shares: “Watching the videos in the beginning, I felt very strongly that I was a Type 2. I had an emotional response, feeling as if I was being seen for the first time in my life. The way Carol described a Type 2 made me feel like I could be myself without the guilt or pressure since all my life I thought I needed to be someone else. I could do things my way (slowly), and it was a positive thing. Overall, it was a validation and freedom to be myself. I was able to settle into myself and I felt at peace. I gave a figurative\/literal sigh of relief.<\/em>”<\/p>\n
