Unraveling Love Addiction and Taking a L...

SHERRY GABA AND CARLA ROMO
About this episode

Sherry and Carla kick this week off with a Love Fix Question from a listener wondering how to cohabitate with a partner who isn’t the biggest dog fan, and she’s wondering how she and her pooch can compromise when he moves in. Then, they welcome Whitney Walker, a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in addiction, eating disorders, trauma, and spirituality. She also works as a recovery coach and spiritual guide. Whitney opened a private practice in the California Bay Area where she sees clients, couples, and families. Whitney created the “Women Waken” podcast, a holistic guide to wellness and abundant self-love along with an accompanying YouTube channel.
