Episode 21-Breaking Down the Savior Complex

from Blunt But Brilliant · host Nikki Ivers and Tary Varnum

Helping or assisting others is a kind thing to do, but if that help is attached to your need to save people or if you help people at your own detriment, then we may be talking about having a Savior Complex. What is a Savior Complex, how can we spot it in ourselves or others, why can it be detrimental to ourselves and others, and how do we stop helping people at our own expense? Listen here for answers to those questions and more!Favorite items of the week were skipped this week in favor of an update on Nikki's dad.
