Summary
In this episode, I sit down with Ross Rosenberg, a global thought leader in codependency, narcissism, and trauma treatment. We discuss how traditional approaches often missed the mark and led to stigmatization. Understanding the roots of these behaviors — often linked to childhood trauma — is crucial for breaking free from unhealthy relationship patterns.
Ross also introduces his innovative Human Magnet Syndrome, explaining why certain personality types are irresistibly drawn to narcissistic partners.
It's a hopeful and eye-opening discussion for anyone struggling with codependency. I talk about overcoming my own codependent tendencies in my marriage, demonstrating that change is possible with mutual growth and self-love.
We touch on Ross's Relationship Compatibility Theory, and by the end of the episode, you'll have a new perspective on codependency and be equipped with actionable insights for your own self-love and recovery journey!
In this episode, you will hear:
- The concept of Self-Love Deficit Disorder and the inadequacies of traditional codependency treatments.
- Early misinterpretations and the role of childhood attachment trauma in developing codependent behaviors.
- Why certain personality types are drawn to narcissistic partners and how this impacts relationships.
- How to transform codependent tendencies into balanced partnerships.
- Tips on resolving core shame, supporting each other, and maintaining fulfilling relationships through the Relationship Compatibility Theory.
- The importance of understanding and addressing the deep-seated trauma that underlies codependency for effective healing.
