How to Escape the ‘Fixer’ Role in Dysfunctional Relationships | Brené Brown

Описание: How to Escape the “Fixer” Role in Dysfunctional Relationships — Love Without Losing Yourself

In this honest and deeply relatable speech, we explore the hidden cost of always trying to rescue, manage, and fix the people we love. Many of us slip into the fixer role out of care, fear, or an old belief that our worth depends on keeping everyone else okay — but the truth is, this pattern can quietly destroy connection, intimacy, and our own sense of peace.
This talk dives into why we feel compelled to fix, how it keeps us trapped in unhealthy dynamics, and what it really takes to break free — so we can show up in love from a place of courage, clarity, and respect, instead of fear and obligation.

Why You Should Listen:
• Recognize the hidden signs that you’ve become the fixer in your relationships — and why it feels so hard to stop.
• Understand the real emotional cost of rescuing others and why it often leads to exhaustion, resentment, and shame.
• Learn how to set healthy boundaries without becoming cold, distant, or uncaring.
• Discover why embracing imperfection — in yourself and others — creates space for true connection.
• Rewrite your story about worthiness so your value is no longer tied to being useful or indispensable.
Whether you’ve spent years trying to save someone else or you’re just beginning to see this pattern in your life, this message will help you step out of the fixer’s shadow and into a more authentic, balanced, and wholehearted way of loving.
