Episode notes

We consistently and without fail love the other person more than we love ourselves. It's where we step into the pit of Kody Tenancy. Don't we also believe that we are not worthy of love because we seek out those with whom we can settle to be needed as opposed to being loved? We do. Raising children feels like a big pile of codependency. Well, raising kids is one of the few legitimate circumstances that most closely resembles codependency only it's legitimate.

1. The Mother of Codependence shares the difference between healthy and unhealthy helping.

2. The daily practice that helps Melody stop controlling others and “Let Life Happen.”

3. Why no one is able to gaslight you more than you.

4. The one area of life where Codependence is necessary.

5. All four of us surrender to the truth that we will never be Codependent No More.
