Jessica Baum and Karen Mrbride talk openly about what our culture has wrong with the messages around codependency. Using the lens of interpersonal neurobiology to help listeners understand how they adapted and formed ways that foster self-abandonment in their relationships. Looking closely at different attachment styles and how that shows up in relationship patterns. Understanding anxious attachment as that is a style that often has “codependent traits” and how to start to heal. They unpack co-regulation and how many struggles with self-regulation and why. How that impacts one's ability to set boundaries and have boundary systems? Exploring why inner awareness and inner boundaries are the first steps to having healthy boundaries really holds people back from setting healthy external boundaries. Connect with JessicaInstagramCourses with Jessica Baum LMHC Anxiously Attached; Becoming More Secure in Life and Love the bookSingle on Purpose is created by The Angry Therapist, John Kim, who will also be in the rotation of experts.
