Podcasts about codependent

The best way to stop focusing and ruminating about narcissists in your life is to close your eyes and fall in love with the self. Ancient Persian Philosopher Rumi is an excellent example of how to break up with, let go of, divorce, and go no contact with narcissists in your life. In this lesson, you will learn what Rumi has to say about releasing narcissists from your life, and why doing so is terrifying yet brings emotional freedom at the same time. Healing from narcissistic abuse, requires that you release resistance to the pain manipulation, gaslighting, triangulation, smear campaigns and discard have created. Through radical self awareness, and acceptance, we discover the power of sacred wisdom as it pertains to choosing nonresistance. A narcissist will never follow you into solitude. When you embrace solitude, narcissists will run away because in solitude their masks fall. And that's why you must travel into the silence within. Codependency is akin to spiritual death. It implies you are living in denial of what is, and running from reality. The answer lies in climbing the ladder of the mind, from the subconscious to the higher conscious realms. But first, we must figure out where you are now and at what level of awareness do you reside. Feel free to take my FREE Codependency Quiz to discover more. ✨ Take my FREE Codependency Quiz

Are you labeling someone a narcissist... when they might actually be a falsely empowered codependent?In this episode of the Heal the Hurt Podcast, we dive deep into one of the most common—and most dangerous—misunderstandings in emotional healing and relationship dynamics. Many people confuse certain types of codependency with narcissism, and that confusion can destroy relationships that are actually salvageable.Kenny Weiss explains:

In This Episode, You'll Hear About:The cringey story of my first boundaries book at 20 (and how I still didn't get it

Want a BPD Ex Back? Fantasy Bond & Unanswered QuestionsWant a BPD Ex back? It's the fantasy bond and wanting answers to unanswered questions. Questions that most (especially untreated) with Borderline Personality don't know the answers to. They are too defended, more often than not, to even try to "communicate" with you. The fantasy of getting a BPD Ex back after they ghost you and END a relationship - it really has an end that most won't, don't and/or can't accept. It's fantasy bonds and unconscious Codependent repetition compulsions that continue to drive your limbo of lostness and agony with you believing you can somehow get them back, get answers, to make it work. That just does not work and you continue to abandon yourself in this process.https://ajmahari.ca - Sessions - Contact - Bloghttps://ajmahari.com - Online Store - Ebooks & morehttps://survivingbpdrelationshipbreakup.com - PodcastThis podcast is ranked in the Top 100 Relationships Podcasts on feedspot.com at:100 Best Relationship Podcasts You Must Follow in 2025

In this episode, you will explore 10 distinct forms of narcissistic manipulation tactics and the true agenda of a narcissist with whom you must engage, communicate, parent, and resolve issues. Those who display narcissistic traits often do not recognize themselves as narcissists. Instead, they tend to hold on to their grand illusions of themselves or see themselves as the victims of others. When they are up, it is because they believe others see them as the best, smartest, most beautiful, creative or talented. When they are down, that is because they feel victimized by evidence that someone, maybe you, no longer feed into their grand illusions of themselves. Lisa A. Romano Breakthrough Life Coach, Award winning author, meditation teacher, course creator, and podcast host, is on a mission to awaken those who live below the veil of consciousness, and who are in toxic, enmeshed, codependent, subjugating relationships with those who are either narcissists, or who have high narcissistic traits. As an adult daughter of narcissistic and codependent parents, and as someone who escaped the undertow of a toxic marriage herself, she understands that the first step in healing from a narcissistic relationship is recognizing the signs that you are actually in a narcissistic relationship.  Ready to begin your healing journey?  Embark on the path to conscious awakening, emotional healing, and transformation with Lisa's Conscious Healing Academy, which includes a 3 tier coaching system that assists with one's awakening, emotional intelligence, and mental and emotional mastery.  12 Week Breakthrough Program (Level One - The Awakening) 8 Week Master Your Reality (Level 2 -- Deliberate Creating) Soul School - (Level Three -- Ascending Ego) To learn more, contact Lisa and her team members here; Contact Website Spotify Award Winning Books  Facebook Support Group

If you struggle with worrying about what others think, you may be vulnerable to narcissistic manipulation. Codependents are often conditioned to seek external validation, fearing rejection or judgment. Narcissists exploit this by twisting reality, making you question your own experiences, and using your need for approval against you. They may say, "You're too sensitive," or "No one else sees it that way," to gaslight you into doubting yourself. They might also manipulate social perceptions, controlling how others see you through smear campaigns or triangulation.  In this episode, Lisa A. Romano exposes these tactics and teaches you how to detach from the fear of judgment, trust your own reality, and break free from the narcissist's control. If you don't know just upset you can become when others perceive you in a negative way, you might not realize how someone with high narcissistic traits could use that fear against you to keep you stuck! Tune in now to reclaim your power! We appreciate your like, follow and share.  And if you know someone who needs to know that a narcissist might be using their fears regarding how others perceive them against them, be sure to share this episode with them.  Embark on the path to conscious awakening, emotional healing, and transformation with Lisa's Conscious Healing Academy, which includes a 3 tier coaching system that assists with one's awakening, emotional intelligence, and mental and emotional mastery.  12 Week Breakthrough Program (Level One - The Awakening) 8 Week Master Your Reality (Level 2 -- Deliberate Creating) Soul School - (Level Three -- Ascending Ego) To learn more, contact Lisa and her team members here; Contact Website Spotify Award Winning Books  Facebook Support Group

Most women going through divorce don't realize they've been living in codependent relationships, desperately seeking external validation rather than trusting their inherent worth. In this transformative episode, I introduce you to a powerful reframing of codependence as "emotional outsourcing" as coined by Beatriz Victoria Albina - the habit of chronically seeking our sense of value from everyone and everything outside ourselves. This pattern didn't emerge from nowhere. From girlhood, we're conditioned to believe our purpose is making others comfortable, prioritizing everyone else's needs, and feeling guilty when we put ourselves first. The devastating message? You're not complete until you fulfill your "duties" as a woman. This harmful programming creates the belief that you're somehow broken or unworthy - especially when your marriage ends. Here's the liberating truth: We can replace emotional outsourcing with a deep, unshakable knowledge of our inherent worth. But contrary to what you might think, the goal isn't complete independence. True healing comes through interdependence - knowing your worth from within while maintaining meaningful connections where you give from abundance rather than obligation. Ready to stop believing you're broken? Your journey to wholeness begins with recognizing your worth isn't determined by anyone else. If this podcast resonated with you in any way, please take a minute to follow and give me a rating wherever you listen to podcasts.To schedule your complimentary consult with Karin click here.For more information and full show notes go to:https://www.karinnelsoncoaching.com/post/ep209

Is codependency secretly sabotaging your life and relationships? Are you losing yourself while desperately trying to fix someone else? Mayim and Jonathan explore how to spot the telltale signs of codependent behavior and distinguish it from a healthy relationship, romantic or otherwise. Using the book, “Codependent No More: How to Stop Controlling Others and Start Caring for Yourself” by Melody Bettle as their guide, Mayim and Jonathan break down how trauma and family dynamics can create codependency and how to break those codependent patterns. Learn why pressuring others to change never works, the physiological toll of codependency, and how to set powerful boundaries to protect yourself. They share tips on how to overcome codependency, such as how to increase emotional resilience, build your self-esteem, recognize your needs, and practice healthy detachment—without losing yourself. Plus, see how Jonathan did on Mayim's codependency quiz! Check out CODEPENDENT NO MORE: How to Stop Controlling Others and Start Caring for Yourself: https://www.melodybeattie.com/codependentnomore BialikBreakdown.comYouTube.com/mayimbialik 

In this week's coaching session, Christine Hassler works with Ashlee, who is struggling with a question many people face: how do you know if you're healed enough to enter a relationship? Ashlee shares her experiences with past relationships, childhood wounds, and codependent tendencies that have shaped her fears about choosing the right partner. This episode isn't just about dating—it's about learning to trust yourself and shifting from fear-based decision-making to a place of wisdom and self-awareness. Christine helps Ashlee identify where her fear is coming from, how to recognize patterns, and what it really means to be ready for a relationship.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Have you been in relationships where you felt like you were “dating your wounds” instead of a truly compatible partner? Do you ever question whether you're healed enough to be in a relationship? Are you struggling to trust yourself when it comes to picking the right partner? Do you find yourself looking for unconditional love in a romantic relationship—something you may not have received in childhood? Are you allowing your inner child to do the picking in relationships rather than your wise, adult self?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Healing is a lifelong process, and relationships will always bring opportunities for growth. It's important to recognize whether you are attracting a partner from a place of neediness and past wounds or from a place of confidence and self-trust. Codependent tendencies, such as trying to fix or save a partner, often stem from unmet childhood needs. Trusting yourself is essential to creating a healthy relationship—without self-trust, fear takes over. A partner cannot replace or compensate for the unconditional love you may have lacked in childhood—healthy relationships require personal responsibility for healing.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Identify your inner child's unmet needs and recognize how they might be showing up in your dating patterns. Shift from fear-based decision-making to trust-based dating—stop selecting partners based on what feels familiar (even if it's unhealthy) and focus on what aligns with your vision of a secure relationship. Heal before seeking healing from others—a healthy relationship can be supportive, but it should not be a substitute for deep personal work. Create clear relationship values—write out what a healthy, mature, and non-codependent relationship looks like. Reframe your relationship expectations—instead of expecting a partner to “fix” or “heal” you, seek someone who supports your journey while maintaining a strong sense of self.   Upcoming Event: Love Magnet Workshop If you're looking to attract love from a place of wholeness, Christine's free three-day “Love Magnet Workshop” is happening now. It's not too late to join. Sign up at christinehassler.com/lovemagnet. Upcoming Retreat: March 2024 Christine and Stefanos will be hosting a transformational retreat at The Art of Living Center.

It's another edition of Lonely Guy Friday, all you RGF fans. Why you should revisit Christopher Reeves' Superman, why we've seen enough of Batman and Joker, and why it's time for a new Superman. How the cold plunge is healthy but expensive and painful, and how to cold plunge at home in a far less painful way. How a 10 dollar hot water bottle at CVS or any pharmacy can soothe anxiety or a broken heart. How that same 10 dollar hot water bottle and some castor oil could ease your gut issues. How daily morning mass or service could be the thing to get your days and schedule on track. What empty nesters can do to heal and ascend. How your codependence is keeping you in prison and the irony of how the narcissist in you can free your codependent self (but also land you right back while adding time to your sentence). The tie between codependency and addiction. How trauma makes the artist, but also destroys them (as we see in Hollywood all the time). How Joan Rivers visited Kev in a dream, what she said and how I interpreted it - and so can you for your dreams.
