Over-Functioning and What it Costs

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

You see the problem before anyone else does. You already have the solution forming before they have finished describing it. You move toward fixing it because the fastest way to relieve everyone’s stress — including your own — is to resolve it.

This is over-functioning. And it looks like helpfulness from the outside. From the inside, it is exhausting, frequently thankless, and quietly costing you more than you have named.

This episode is about the nervous system survival strategy hiding inside the helper. What drives it. What it costs. And what becomes available when you learn to put it down.
