Mental health and codependency intersect in profound ways that affect how we treat ourselves, not just our relationships with others. We explore four key patterns that keep us stuck in cycles of burnout, guilt, and emotional exhaustion while providing practical steps toward healing.

We will explore how:

• People-pleasing isn't just politeness but a nervous system survival response developed in childhood
• Self-abandonment occurs when we consistently put others first regardless of the cost to ourselves
• Chronic guilt and shame keep us stuck in patterns of overgiving even when it's harming our wellbeing
• Emotional over-responsibility leads to burnout when we take ownership of others' feelings and problems

Whether you're deep into your healing journey or just beginning to wonder why you're so tired all the time, this episode offers both validation and practical steps forward. Because you don't need to set yourself on fire to keep everyone else warm.
