EP 15 Driving Impact: Fixer

Loading player...
In our last episode, we explored the Enthusiast Drive—this week, we turn our attention to the Fixer Drive. Join Andrew, Claire, and Tracy in a deep-dive discussion on what it means to be driven to fix, heal, and restore. Discover how Fixers thrive when faced with problems, weaknesses, or dysfunction—and how this Drive, when managed well, can become a powerful force for good.

We’re also joined by special guest Anne, a passionate Fixer who shares candidly about her journey: the energizing joy of solving tangible problems, the challenge of letting go when solutions are out of reach, and the tension between her Fixer Drive and her drainer Drive, the Impact Player.

Expect real-world stories—from restoring antique furniture to supporting loved ones—and honest insights on managing boundaries, avoiding burnout, and embracing self-awareness.

💡 If you or someone on your team has a Fixer Drive, this episode is your guide to unlocking its potential—without losing yourself in the process.
