Summary

Join Lindsey and Terri Cole, licensed psychotherapist and global relationship expert, as they dive deep into a topic so many of us can relate to: codependency. Terri shares wisdom from her new book, Too Much: A Guide To Breaking The Cycle of High-Functioning Codependency. Ahead, Terri, our boundary-setting guru, opens up about her experiences as a codependent and highlights the difference between true support and control. Get practical tips around setting boundaries, determining your "bandwidth," and practicing healthy detachment for true freedom. Plus, understand how your childhood experiences, as well as outside influences (thank you, patriarchy) shape those pesky codependent tendencies. This episode is a heartfelt guide for anyone looking to stop over-functioning and find true inner peace. We also talk about: Over and under functioning dynamics in relationships Strategies to stop enabling loved ones How family issues like addiction + mental health affect codependency The art of "holding space" without judgment Managing discomfort as part of personal growth Recognizing the allure + danger of relationships with narcissists Balancing control + vulnerability for deeper connections The perpetual recovery journey from high-functioning codependency Terri's handy tips on emotional self-regulation + inner child work Sponsors: LMNT | Get a free sample pack with any order, That’s 8 single serving packets FREE with any LMNT order.
