Ever feel like you're always the one swooping in to save the day, only to end up exhausted and resentful? In this eye-opening episode of 'Step Up To Sobriety', Heather Timmons tackles the common urge to 'fix' everything for everyone around you. If you're on a sobriety journey, this habit can be particularly harmful, draining your energy and focus away from your own recovery. Heather shares practical advice on setting healthy boundaries and putting your own happiness first.

Tune in and find out how taking care of your own well-being can actually help you support others more effectively.
