Have you ever felt an irresistible urge to solve everyone's problems, convinced that you were their only hope? My revelation about the savior complex's impact on our lives came to me during an insightful coaching session, and it's something I'm eager to unpack with you. Research by psychologist Mari Joseph, helped me navigate the complex waters of trying to 'save' the people around us. The conversation sheds light on the fine line between assisting and rescueing, exploring how this well-intentioned yet misdirected drive can take a toll on our self-esteem and vitality. Through personal anecdotes and expert insights, we aim to empower you to recognize and step back from these patterns, fostering growth in others and ourselves without crossing boundaries.
Then, we move into the labyrinth of change within our intimate spheres. Striving to mold our loved ones into our ideal can often backfire, creating rifts and perpetuating feelings of inadequacy. Instead, I advocate for embracing acceptance and practicing active listening, strategies that can transform our relationships and our approach to support. It's a liberating shift from playing the rescuer to focusing on our own well-being, and Mari Joseph's expertise illuminates the path to this freedom. Join me as I explore the relief and rejuvenation that come from laying down the savior mantle and nourishing our own needs as much as we tend to those we care about.
Please follow me on instagram and facebook @happilyevenaftercoach and if you want to see what coaching is all about I offer a free 45 min. clarity call via zoom.
Email me: [email protected] for any comments or questions.
Thanks for listening, please like and review as well as share with your family and friends.
