Episode 149 - We Need To Talk About Codependency

For a long time, codependency has been framed as weakness or passivity—that’s why so many strong, capable, high-functioning women hear that word and immediately think, that is absolutely not me. In this episode, I explore where the concept of codependency actually came from and why that original definition often doesn’t fit. When we widen the lens, codependency starts to look a lot more like over-functioning and organizing your time, energy, and identity around other people. When we can understand it in that way, it opens up a much more honest and hopeful path forward. Here’s what I cover:


  • Why the original addiction-based definition of codependency misses how it shows up for high-functioning women
  • How control can turn into codependency and start to replace your self-connection
  • What it looks like when your identity is built around being needed or emotionally steady
  • How codependency costs you your time, energy, and brain space, whether it feels like over-functioning or under-functioning
  • Questions to help you notice where you’re managing others in order to feel okay
