Episode 406: Steps to Stop Being Co-dependent AND Assumptions and How They Hurt Relationships by Lisa Merlo-Booth

Lisa Merlo-Booth is a straight-talking and highly effective relationship expert, speaker, and blogger. She has over twenty years of experience in the field of therapy and relationship coaching and a thriving private practice with a client base of individuals and couples spanning the United States and Europe. Lisa is widely known for her straight talk on women, and for her emphasis on teaching women to stop responding in the extremes (silencing or exploding) and, instead, to affect change in a way that is grounded, respectful, and strong. This highly effective approach to communication is about speaking from Grounded Powerful Strength (GPS) rather than the extremes of meekness or aggression.
