Episode 645: High-Functioning Codependency and Boundaries with Terri Cole


Listen Later

Terri Cole is back for her 7th appearance—yes, 7th—to dive into high-functioning codependency and boundaries. Her latest book, Too Much: A Guide to Breaking the Cycle of High-Functioning Codependency, is a game-changer and I am thrilled to welcome Terri back to the show!

Together we unpack the myth of what codependency is—especially for high-achieving women—and give us a clear picture of high-functioning codependency (HFC). We’re talking about things like auto advice-giving and running everyone else’s life at the expense of your sanity.

Terri and I also break down tools such as resentment inventory and the art of detachment (she explains what these are - don’t worry!). And we also talk about boundaries, of course! Specifically how healthy boundaries aren’t about shutting people out; they’re about letting yourself breathe. 

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • What is high-functioning codependency and how does it show up? (6:11)
  • Where it all begins: understanding root causes and the need for control (17:38)
  • Mastering the art of detachment without losing the connection (23:58)
  • The secret to setting boundaries that actually work (27:49)
  • Resentment inventory: your tool for spotting burnout and over-giving (33:30)
