Have you always been the helper, the fixer, the one who jumps in to rescue everyone else—even when it leaves you drained, burnt out, or unseen? In this episode, Marina takes you step-by-step through the transformation from being the fixer in your relationships to embodying a new way of connection rooted in nervous system safety, vulnerability, and self-trust.

Drawing from her own healing journey, Marina shares how this pattern often stems from early childhood experiences, where fixing was the only way to feel safe or loved. She explains how to map out your relational patterns, meet the 'fixer' part of you with compassion, and slowly expand your capacity to receive and be vulnerable—without abandoning yourself or trying to save everyone around you.

This episode isn’t about shaming the fixer part of you—it’s about listening to it, understanding it, and gently creating space for a new kind of connection. Marina also shares tangible somatic practices you can begin using today and invites you to a free masterclass where you can dive even deeper into healing this pattern from the inside out.

“Your fixer part isn’t bad—it’s a younger version of you that once had no other choice.”

“When we stop trying to fix others, we finally get to ask: what do I actually need in this moment?”

“There’s a part of you that wants to fix, help, and rescue—and that part needs you now, not someone else.”

“Receiving can feel terrifying when you’ve spent a lifetime being the one who gives. Start small.”
