	Description:		Send us a text Helping too much creates helplessness. In this episode, we expose how rescuing, overfunctioning, and emotional buffering quietly weaken confidence and reinforce victim thinking. We unpack why stepping in feels responsible, loving, and necessary in the moment, yet slowly teaches people to question their own competence and resilience. Through real stories and psychologically grounded insight, we challenge the habits that turn support into sabotage. This episode is for parents, partners, leaders, and growth-minded humans who want to empower instead of enable, guide instead of control, and build strength that holds under pressure. Do not just agree with this message. Let it change how you intervene, protect, and lead.
