Episode 8: The Fixer Mask

Always holding it together—but quietly falling apart.

You’re the problem-solver.
The one people turn to.
The one who always figures it out.

But here’s what no one sees:
The Fixer Mask isn’t about generosity—it’s about survival.
It’s the part of you that learned:
If I can fix it, I can stay safe. If I’m needed, I can’t be left.

In this episode of Unapologetically In Power, we unpack the Fixer Mask—why it forms, how it becomes your identity, and the heavy emotional toll it takes over time.

What parts of me feel loved only when I’m solving other people’s problems?
And who am I—when I’m not fixing anything?

Your worth isn’t tied to your usefulness.
You’re allowed to be held, not just hold.
To be supported, not just strong.
