This week, Delanie Fischer is joined by Codependency and Addiction Expert and Author of “Codependent Attachment Personality Patterns,” Heidi Rain. Heidi describes the different styles of codependent attachments, the relationship between addiction and codependency — including codependency being an addiction in itself, why holding onto control doesn’t work (and how to relinquish it), and what we need to let go of in order to break away from, or transform, damaging relational dynamics. If you're experiencing similar, undesirable outcomes in your work, life, or relationships on loop, and you're ready to make some changes, do NOT miss this episode.

Plus:

+ The difference between expectations vs. standards in a relationship (and how to face reality)

+ Recognizing codependent behaviors — even when they've been normalized for you

+ Heidi's #1 quote for building unshakable confidence in the face of criticism and rejection
