6.Healing Codependency in Relationships with Jessica Graham


Listen Later

Codependency recovery, Al-Anon, and inner child healing—this week’s episode is all about breaking free from dysfunctional patterns and rewriting the story you tell yourself. If you’ve ever struggled with people-pleasing, boundary setting, or losing yourself in relationships, this conversation will feel like a thought hug.


I’m joined by Jessica Graham, a storyteller and brand strategist whose own journey through 12-Step recovery, Al-Anon meetings, and inner child work has shaped the way she helps women heal. Together, we talk about:

  • What codependency in relationships really looks like (beyond substance addiction)
  • How Al-Anon tools and 12-Step recovery create clarity and boundaries
  • The role of inner child healing in building self-trust and resilience
  • Using journaling and storytelling to reframe pain and uncover patterns
  • The power of small shifts—like Jessica’s practice of God walks (prayer walks)—to regulate your nervous system and bring peace
  • How to move from victim mindset to gratitude, empowerment, and growth


🌟 Glow Work (this week’s practice): Take a God walk. Go outside without headphones, talk to God as if He’s your best friend, and notice how your energy and clarity shift.
