And I found this not only in my relationships and like romantic relationships, but even with family members. I've had times in family members that where I'm like trying to help them and originally helping them meant money, Solving problems using, you know, in forms like that to find out that I look back and I'm like, wow, that wasn't helping at all. That was enabling.
And actually, even though when I took that energy, like took away, like fixing the problems via money and I started just supporting them in a vision of like, you can figure this out. What I realized was that I was allowing them the space to transform, but also I had to get comfortable with being seen as not the good guy, not the saver, not the fixer that comes in.

And that meant letting someone go through sometimes some pain to get the lesson. And that space, though, has allowed them to come to their own conclusions and to make the changes in their life that they would not have made if I kept that codependent energy of fixing people's problems or using money to fix.
