About this listen

Support and enabling, while often used interchangeably, carry distinct meanings that significantly impact the dynamics of friendships. Support encompasses offering emotional backing, encouragement, and a safe space for friends to express themselves. It promotes well-being and personal growth, fostering an environment where individuals feel valued and understood. However, enabling crosses a critical line; it involves acquiescing to harmful behaviors or decisions, often out of a desire to avoid conflict or maintain harmony. Recognizing the difference between these two concepts is essential for nurturing healthy relationships that encourage accountability and growth.
