Codependency is a word many of us have heard – but do you really understand what it means?

In this episode, Molly dives into the origins of the word codependency and explores why it so often traps compassionate people in painful relationship patterns. You’ll learn where the term came from, how it evolved, and why it still matters today – plus why boundaries are the key to moving out of codependency and into freedom.

There’s hope: Codependency isn’t your fault, and you’re not doomed to live in it forever.
