Relationships are meant to add to your life and support you. But what do you do when your relationship is the opposite of that? Or when a relationship ends up being your whole life instead of an aspect of your life? Codependency is a slippery slope and I brought back a past guest, Amy Young, to discuss that. Amy is a life coach and online creator. She shares her tips for the patterns you should look for in your relationship to decide if it's toxic. She talks about what she's seen from clients in codependent relationships and gives her advice on why you need to have a "sacred six" daily practice. We also discuss stepping into your own being and recognizing what you tolerate in relationships.
