Description

In this episode, we explore the key differences between being a guiding lighthouse and a reactive lifeboat. Why do so many of us fall into the trap of trying to fix everyone around us? What are the consequences for both the fixer and those being fixed? And most importantly, how can we shift our mindset to embody the role of a steady and inspiring presence in our own lives and the lives of others? 


Discover practical guidance on leading through example, setting healthy boundaries, and moving beyond the urge to control. We also explore how childhood trauma can influence this behavior and how healing can empower us to show up in a more authentic and impactful way.


What You’ll Learn: 



  • The reasons behind the fixing instinct

  • The impact on personal well-being and relationships

  • How to become a lighthouse: leading by example and inspiring others

  • The roots of this behavior, including childhood trauma

  • Actionable steps to live and lead with integrity
