A little secret from a therapist:
Rescuing people from natural consequences might
delay them from learning a valuable lesson. People
learn from mistakes, and if they aren't allowed to
make any, they might not learn critical problem-
solving skills. Allowing people to experience what
they need to is a beautiful way for you to do less
work and for them to have an opportunity to learn
what's required.
Repeat after me:
I can support people in ways that don't require me to save them.
