Helping someone you care about feels like the right thing to do. You step in, fix the mistake, give them another chance, lend the money, or protect them from the consequences.
But what if your help is actually making things worse?
In this episode of Zero Distortion, we look at the difficult line between helping and enabling—and why repeatedly solving someone else's problems can sometimes take away the very thing they need to change.
Supporting someone doesn't mean carrying them. And caring about someone doesn't mean taking responsibility for choices that aren't yours.
Because you can help someone get back on their feet.
But you can't want their life to improve more than they do.
