There’s a difference between helping and enabling. We know it. We say it. But somehow, some way, we find ourselves in a trap, a big ole thorny pit called enablement. In today's episode, we're examining the difference between helping and enabling and how to set healthy boundaries and rules of engagement, to build healthier relationships with the people we want to see succeed and thrive.
In this episode, we’re not going to speak about any specific behaviors, such as those associated with addiction and addicts. We’ll speak to you, the one who is doing the enabling. We’re focusing on you and your choices to enable the behavior. This isn't about shame or guilt. It's about us taking responsibility, being accountable for what we say and do, and holding others accountable.
Let's discuss the hamster wheel you have created and keep it in motion. Let's talk about what happens when you stand in the gap and keep an adult from taking responsibility. This episode examines various examples of how this affects money management, household responsibilities, work duties, parenting, and more.
When do you go from helper to enabler? We discuss that in this episode.
Do you know there's love in the word "No," and sometimes there's more love in "No" than "Yes"? Listen in to hear how to lovingly say no and set healthy boundaries.
Enabling leads to greater stress and anxiety, lower well-being, health issues, and toxic relationships. Enabling harms you and the person you think you're helping.
Episode 84 also shares three businesses that we think you should support and share with your network. Check out our Business Shout-Outs!
