How Empaths Experience Others' Emotions

If you’ve ever wondered why you’re working so hard on yourself but still feel stuck, this episode will help you see what needs to shift — and it’s probably not what you expect.

Many people who identify as empaths are actually carrying codependent patterns that started in childhood. 

In this episode, we explore how to tell the difference between being codependent and being an empath and why that distinction matters for your healing.

You’ll learn:

The key differences between codependency and empathy

How childhood trauma and family dynamics shape both

What happens when you keep identifying with codependency as empathy

Simple ways to start reconnecting to your own needs and emotions

This episode is for anyone who’s ever thought: “Am I an empath or just codependent?” or “Why do I always attract people who drain my energy?”
