Listeners of Ordinary People Doing Extraordinary Things that love the show mention:How to Break the Cycle of Relationship Addiction, Codependency and Toxic Partnerships Sherry Gaba, LCSW is one of the world's leading experts on this subject.

But she has a very personal reason for specializing in this area. She WAS a romance and love addict for most of the first 40 years of her life! Married four times, she was driven by the need for reassurance, comfort, safety, validation and financial support that she perceived a relationship offered. Her compulsion stemmed from being a premature baby placed in an incubator for weeks after birth. Without that initial bonding and supporting parenting, she suffered the abandonment that drives most people who are love addicted. Sherry's husbands included the abuser, the neglector and the alcoholic. Listen to learn about her story and her tips of breaking the cycle!

Leading the Way in Preventing Child Sex Trafficking In episode 648, learn more about this important topic. Now more than ever children are at risk for online child exploitation and they do not even have to leave home for it to happen. Any mobile app with a chat feature can put a child at risk.

Krasnodembski had her first “oh crap” moment when she was driving home from Costco one Sunday afternoon. Someone had asked her, “what are you passionate about?” and she froze. Despite these moments, she felt paralyzed to act because her mind kept hijacking her power, which kept her on the hamster wheel that we often call life. Yet, things shifted when she followed Warren Buffet's infamous advice that, “the best investment you can make is in yourself.” Listen to her story and the advice she gives to others to start reclaiming their power.
