How do you catch yourself “fixing” when someone just needs you to listen?


Listen Later

It is an age-old problem. Someone is sharing a problem. You know what they need to solve it. You try to tell them and they get mad at YOU for not understanding. 

It works the other way too. You want to vent and the person you are talking to wants to solve.

I asked Cami, Jim Lee and Domenico how they notice when they are fixing rather than listening. The resulting conversion is thoughtful, honest and sometimes funny.

Listen in and then let us know, why do you think humans are so drawn to fix other people’s stuff when we KNOW we just want to talk about our own?
