Struggle Berry Crunch

Ever felt entangled in fixing others' problems, only to lose sight of your own? I lived this reality until I stumbled upon the enlightening teachings of psychotherapist Terri Cole. This episode of Struggle Berry Crunch sheds light on my journey of overcoming high-functioning codependency and the profound lessons I learned. Journey with me as I share my experiences of becoming overly engrossed in others' issues, the chaos it brewed in my life, and how I navigated towards healthier relationships.

You'll be introduced to my personal mantra: "Not my circus, not my monkeys." This phrase became my cornerstone, helping me understand the importance of focusing on personal growth while allowing others to learn from their experiences. We delve into the realms of responsibility and the fears we come across in our lives. This compelling audio clip not only offers lessons on overcoming codependency but also emphasizes the idea that your presence might be the best support you can provide. Remember, it's okay to care, but it's not your job to fix people. So tune in and learn how to maintain healthy boundaries while supporting your loved ones.

This episode is about my journey, a journey that led me to understand how my inability to forgive myself was putting brakes on my life's growth and expansion.

Join me as I navigate through this personal journey, where I confront my negative self-beliefs, the ones that often made me interpret others' actions negatively. I'll share with you how these beliefs have been affecting my self-esteem, personal growth, and relationships. I'll also take you through an impactful coaching session that acted as the catalyst. But, the highlight is a brave step I took, a step towards self-forgiveness, a step that could inspire you to do the same. It's time for us, Struggleberries, to unleash the power of forgiveness and to experience the freedom it brings into our lives. Let's start this journey together.

This bonus clip of Struggle Berry Crunch focuses on the topic of adulting. Host Teriyana gives listeners permission to temporarily abandon the societal idea of what being an adult means. She suggests that people should determine what being an adult means to them on a personal level, instead of trying to fit into a general notion of what it means to be a successful adult. Teriyana highlights how society makes individuals feel like they always need to have their lives figured out, but in reality, people should be pursuing their own dreams and aspirations.
