If that’s called codependent, then they should wear that label proudly.
Michelle Anderson brings a fresh perspective to the often-misunderstood concept of codependency in this episode of 'Love Over Addiction'. Many times, loved ones of those struggling with addiction are labeled as codependent, and it's often seen in a negative light. But Michelle flips the script, suggesting that these tendencies can actually be beneficial. You'll hear about three ways codependency can be a gift.
First, it gives individuals the strength to stay and support their loved ones when others might walk away. Second, it makes them exceptional friends, always ready to lend an ear or a helping hand. And third, it encourages them to take responsibility and apologize when necessary, fostering healthier relationships. Michelle also emphasizes the importance of self-care during tough times. She encourages listeners to focus on activities that bring joy and peace, rather than getting defensive.
Through her relatable stories and honest advice, Michelle reminds everyone that they are not alone in their journey and that there's always hope for a brighter future. Tune in to learn how to harness your codependent tendencies for good and take care of yourself during challenging times. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to turn what is often seen as a weakness into a strength.
