Are You Helping Or Rescuing?

all categories self-empowerment blueprint
A compassionate woman comforting another who is upset, symbolizing the fine line between helping with empathy and rescuing from obligation.

What’s the difference between helping someone and rescuing them?

 

Helping empowers them to rise.

 

Rescuing keeps them dependent on your strength.

 

One comes from love.

 

The other comes from guilt, fear, or the need to be needed.

 

⚠️When you are always rescuing, you teach people to abandon their own power, and you abandon yours in the process.

 

This is how resentment and burnout begin.

 

Sometimes physical health issues come next.

 

Helping says: I believe you can handle this.

 

Rescuing says: I don’t trust that you can.

 

If you have been the "fixer" your whole life, always stepping in to hold everything together, it may be time to break that pattern.

 

💯You can still be compassionate without carrying someone else’s healing.

 

You can love without losing yourself.

How to Stop Attracting Emotionally Unavailable People

Hi, I'm Dr. Homeyra Faghihi. I coach women who struggle to say no, helping them set kind and clear boundaries and ask for what they want. I am an Empowerment Coach, a Doctor of Psychology, a psychotherapist with 25 years of experience in California, a Certified Domestic Violence Counselor, and a Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician. I bring all that experience into my individual and group coaching programs. My mission is to help women reconnect with their self-worth, which is buried under persistent self-doubt and self-judgment.

Please note: No psychotherapy services are offered through Power To The Self. Coaching and education, only.
