Hosted by Heather Chauvin | Insights inspired by Mel Robbins, Bréne Brown,
About this episode

Why do you keep doing things that NO ONE asked for? 

Because you thrive on over-giving and overworking, constantly making other people’s pain your problem. 

Feeling triggered? Good! 

It’s time to break the cycle of being a high-functioning codependent.

In this episode, I’m joined by Terri Cole, licensed psychotherapist, global relationship and empowerment expert, and author of Boundary Boss and Too Much! 

Together, we dive deep into the patterns and behaviors of high-functioning codependency and how to start reclaiming your time and energy.

Take a deep breath and jump in as we dive into: 

  • How to recognize high-functioning codependency behaviors in yourself and the people around you
  • Common myths around codependency and how they shape our perceptions of self-worth and relationships
  • Practical strategies and exercises to release control and empower others to make their own choices
  • Why high-functioning codependents are more susceptible to burnout and the emotional labor that often leads them there
