When we take on the responsibility for solving another person’s problems, we essentially steal their opportunity to grow, build resilience, and gain mastery over their own lives.
"It is the ultimate misuse of our power to take responsibility for solving problems that belong to others. Our role as witness is to create a safe space for them to sort through the issues of the day, offering understanding & interpretation along the way,"
-- Kelly Koerner, 2011.
