In this episode we break down the five faces of codependency (the caretaker, people-pleaser, rescuer, dependent, and avoidant), what led you to being in each role, and how you can get in touch with the most authentic and empowered version of you.

You’ll learn how to:

• Recognize which roles you fall into in relationships
• Identify the beliefs driving your codependent habits
• Shift from self-abandonment to self-connection
• Build interdependent, reciprocal relationships

If you’ve ever wondered “Why do I keep attracting the same kind of people?” or felt burnt out from being “the reliable one,” this episode will help you rewrite your story and come home to yourself.
