Listen Later

In this raw and revealing episode of Forging Fluidity, hosts Savannah Wishart and Griffin Coombs unpack the complex world of codependency, transforming what could be a heavy topic into an enlightening exploration of relationship dynamics. Drawing from personal experiences, they dissect how codependency emerges from low self-worth, discussing how individuals can lose themselves in relationships by seeking completion through another person. The conversation navigates the nuanced landscape of attachment styles, unconventional relationships, and the journey toward secure attachment.

The hosts candidly share their own struggles with codependent patterns, highlighting how these dynamics often stem from childhood experiences and manifest through irrational expectations, rapid relationship escalation, and conditional love. They challenge listeners to recognize codependency not as a fixed state, but as a growth opportunity—emphasizing the importance of maintaining individual identity, communicating needs transparently, and creating relationships that complement rather than complete one another.
