Solo Episode: Embracing Progress Over Perfection During Setbacks

We’re diving deep into the raw and real aspects of my healing journey. In this episode, I'm feeling self-reflective – pulling back the curtain to share personal setbacks, from a car accident to ongoing challenges with illness and relationships.

We’ll explore the complexities of codependency, how it’s impacting my life recently, and the ongoing struggle of maintaining progress in recovery. I open up about the battles with self-worth, the unconscious drive to play the victim, and the transformative power of gentleness and self-advocacy.

We'll also discuss the pressure of holiday expectations and how I'm navigating this season by prioritizing self-care and new traditions. Plus, hear about my experience attending Co-Dependents Anonymous (CoDA) meetings and the invaluable insights they’ve provided.
