In this special espresso shot of a bonus episode, we dive into the intricacies of relationships and self-discovery. I explore the impact of codependency rooted in childhood experiences that shape our perception of safety and authenticity. We talk about neglected desires and how to realign priorities to move towards a life that honors our true aspirations. It can be a struggle to identify personal needs due to a lifetime of external expectations, but as we embrace self-discovery, we reclaim agency and embark on a journey towards self-awareness and fulfillment. Join me in this conversation that reminds us how to step towards this powerful reclamation.
