Summary
Whether you know someone who is an over-helper or YOU are one, this episode will prove an important listen.
This topic — addicted to helping others — recently came back to the surface for Chalene in a major way. And while she has worked on herself in regard to this issue (including therapy) and has seriously improved over the years… like all flaws, it doesn't just disappear 100% forever. It may just creep back in from time to time — which is why it's imperative to continue to keep ourselves in check.
Today, that's exactly what Chalene intends on doing as she: shares recent examples from her life, varying in intensity, as to her need to help others (often at the expense of her own happiness and productivity), explains the psychology behind this bad habit and offers a checklist that'll help you discern whether or not you are, indeed, an over-helper.
