Healing Our Relationships: From Codependency to Authenticity

What Is Codependency, Really?


Listen Later

Welcome to the first episode of Healing Our Relationships. I'm Marisa, Healer and Transformation Guide.

If you've ever felt like you're losing yourself in relationships… like you're constantly saying yes when you mean no, staying silent to avoid conflict, or feeling invisible even with the people you love most… you're not alone.

Today, I want to help you begin to understand what codependency really is. Not just the clinical definitions — but the deeper truth: that codependency isn't who you are. It's something you learned to do to stay safe.

In this episode, I'm sharing:

  • How codependency often begins in childhood and becomes a survival strategy
  • The subtle ways we abandon ourselves to avoid rejection or loss
  • How these patterns live in our nervous systems and shape our relationships
  • A piece of my own journey with codependency
  • Reflection questions to help you notice where you might be leaving yourself behind

My hope is that by the end of this conversation, you'll feel a little less alone… and a little more hopeful that there is a path forward.

This work isn't about fixing yourself. It's about remembering who you are beneath the patterns that once kept you safe.

Thanks for being here. Let's begin this journey together.
