Understanding Codependency...with Dr Sarah Michaud
In this episode, Janet talks with clinical psychologist Dr Sarah Michaud, who has been sober since 1984 and specialises in addiction and codependency.
Sarah shares her powerful recovery story and explains why codependency is often the missing piece in long-term sobriety.
In this episode
Growing up in a family affected by alcoholism
Why addiction often begins as a way to escape emotional pain
The moment that led Sarah to get sober at 24
What codependency really means and how it shows up in relationships
Why trying to fix or control other people never works
How to start setting healthy boundaries in early sobriety
Why guilt is normal when you begin changing people-pleasing patterns
The importance of asking yourself: What do I want? What do I need?
Why asking for help is the first step to recovery
Key message
Recovery isn’t just about stopping drinking. It’s about reconnecting with yourself and learning healthier ways to relate to others.
