How do you relate to time? Are you someone who's always late or meticulously early? Do you schedule yourself within an inch of your life?

I'm breaking down time boundaries and how they can become disordered.

Today, I'm sharing an interview with author and ex-stand up comedian Pam Gaslow. After more than a decade of sobriety, Pam relapsed into addiction at age 45. While many people think of marijuana as a harmless drug, Pam's experience was different: She became an addict, living without purpose and barely able to function. We chat about everything, from why people think weed is completely harmless when it almost destroyed Pam's life, to how her mindset has shifted post-addiction.

Is the way you care for people in your life more like codependency than real, authentic love? It's scary to think about, I know. But if you are codependent, recognizing that fact is the first step toward expressing the healthy, reciprocated care you really want to share with the people in your life. In this episode I will guide you through the signs and symptoms that might indicate codependency in all different types of relationships: romantic, work, parent-child, and friendship. I also share what it looks like to be in recovery from codependency, so you know what to look forward to if you do think you might be codependent and you want that to change.
