Co-host Andy speaks with Gabriel, a self-described recovering "nice guy", about healing from codependency, reparenting, and shame. They explore how vulnerability, curiosity, and self-compassion support personal growth. Gabriel reflects on German cultural influences on complex trauma, deconstructing ideals, and the importance of inner stability over external validation. This is a grounded and down-to-earth conversation on love, relationships, and the importance of showing up for yourself.
