Courtney shares her personal journey of overcoming codependency and establishing healthier patterns of behavior. She discusses the importance of assessing past experiences and taking inventory of inherited patterns. Courtney also emphasizes the significance of setting boundaries and the fear and challenges that come with it. People pleasing, complaining, and exhaustion may be the norm, but at any moment you can choose to do things differently and today's episode is a great place to start.
