Join me in today's episode where we continue our discussion on codependency. As humans we require connection, we are hardwired to be in connection with one another. Connection is what gives us purpose and meaning. It's been proven that social connection biologically can lower anxiety, depression, help us regulate our emotions, lead to higher self-esteem, empathy, and improve our immune systems. The problem is codependency creates an environment where you cannot be authentically YOU, which in turn means you can never truly be SEEN. Being fully SEEN requires vulnerability, and vulnerability can make us feel exposed, uncomfortable, and fearful. If you cannot push past those hard feelings you will never truly feel connected and SEEN.
