Are there couples who make you think, what do they know about love that I don’t? How do they do it? Or do you see couples on TV and wonder, how can I get that kind of love? Where can I even find it? If so, this episode is for you because I am sharing reflections from 25 years of marriage (I can’t believe it!) to my one and only, Vic, about how we’ve kept it good, and how to apply these lessons to your relationships.

How do you react to seeing a friend, sibling, or partner having a rough time?  Not how do you respond, but how do you react? Do you immediately jump to share ideas or thoughts to try to fix their problem?  Or do you inadvertently invalidate their feelings by saying, “Hey, it’s not so bad. It’ll be better tomorrow”?  If you’re nodding your head, this episode is for you. I am talking about the transformative power of learning to sit with emotional discomfort, why you may feel compelled to avoid it by taking action, and what you can do instead.

How do you feel about asking others for help? Are you good at it, or do you avoid it because you don’t want to ‘owe’ anybody anything?

I am talking all about hyper-independence: what it is, why it matters, what causes us to act this way, signs to help you identify whether this is you, and how to shift into healthy independence and interdependence.

These are just some questions I’m answering about boundaries and high-functioning codependency in this episode. Let’s dive in. Read the show notes for today's episode at terricole.com/648
