Care Without Fixing | With Shannon and Johan

Partner with work of CareImpact and Neighbourly! https://careimpact.ca/donate Description How do you show up for someone you care about, knowing you can’t fix what hurts? This kitchen table conversation wrestles with the urge to jump in and make things better—a reflex that can sometimes get in the way of real connection. Through honest stories and gentle reflection, Johan Heinrichs and Shannon Steeves wonder together if it’s possible that presence, not solutions, is what helps us become the kind of neighbours we long to be. Takeaways • Caring does not always mean fixing, presence can be the most meaningful response. • The urge to fix often comes from discomfort with silence, pain, or lack of control. • Listening well helps people feel seen and valued, even when nothing is resolved. • Jesus’ response at Lazarus’ tomb shows that compassion can come before solutions. • Silence and shared grief are not failures of care, they are forms of love. • Being helpful is not the same as being present. • Not every problem is yours to solve, but every person deserves to be heard. • Practicing a pause can create space for deeper connection. • Care becomes healthier when it flows from identity, not the need to feel useful. • Ordinary presence can strengthen relationships and community more than advice.
