Hello Velocity | Accelerated Leadership and Goal Setting for Women

In today's episode we welcome psychotherapist and corporate mental wellness consultant Leah Marone to discuss stress, anxiety, burnout, and “serial fixing.” Leah explains how high-functioning women often operate two to three steps ahead, taking ownership of others’ problems, fueling anxious thoughts and burnout. She introduces her “support, don’t solve” framework, encouraging data collection, pausing, and validation instead of immediate fixing. Listen in to learn more about the three serial fixer types: the doormat, the saint, and the steamroller. Which one do you identify with?Key takeaways:✅ When we're fixing other people's problems forthem, we think it's coming from compassion but a lot of times it's actually about control.✅ Burnout can be caused by these daily negotiations we make with our inner critic who might be afraid other people don't like us or won't need us.✅ A 'support, don't solve' mindset is more helpful for both you and the other person involved so they take ownership over the problem and so you don't create co-dependencies. ---------------------------------------------------------⏱️ What we covered in this video:00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 01:13 Leah’s Journey and Reps Mindset 03:16 Stress vs Anxiety Explained 07:49 Cold vs Allergies Analogy 09:44 Women and Serial Fixing Patterns 12:42 Support Don’t Solve Framework 17:03 Boundaries and Ownership at Work 18:19 Defining Burnout and Early Signs 22:42 Burnout as Negotiation 23:57 Energy Shutdown Signals 24:37 Micro Decisions Burnout 28:05 Serial Fixer Defined 29:49 Roots of Overhelping 32:41 Compassion or Control 33:53 Three Fixer Types 38:14 Closing and Connect-----------------------------------👋 Connect with Leah: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leahmaronelcsw/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leahmaronelcsw/Website: https://www.leahmarone.com/Serial Fixer book: https://www.serial-fixer.com/ --------------------------------------------------🤩 Ready to upgrade your leadership toolkit?Subscribe to the Hello Velocity Newsletter: https://www.hellovelocity.co/newsletter-------------------------------------------------------------------🙋🏻‍♀️ About BrittanyBrittany Canaski is a highly-rated leadership coach and trainer who helps leaders build the skills and confidence they need to be their best. Within her own business, Hello Velocity, Brittany provides coaching, trainings, and events to help teams and individualsbetter understand their performance habits so that they can work smarter, not harder to get where they want to be.
