Breaking Free from Codependency: Ash's Journey to Self-Love
We're searching externally for something we need to find within ourselves.
Have you ever felt like your happiness depends on someone else? In this episode of 'Codependent N’ Sh*t', Ash dives deep into the tangled web of codependency and love addiction. She shares her personal journey of self-development, healing, and spirituality, all discussed with raw honesty and practical advice. Ash explains that codependency is a learned behavior often passed down through generations.
If you find yourself constantly seeking approval from others or getting stuck in unhealthy relationships, this episode might just hit home. Love addiction, as Ash points out, often mirrors codependency. It's that desperate need for validation from people who might not even want you. If you're dating someone who's only half-committed, that's a red flag. Love addicts frequently mistake intense emotions for true intimacy, which can stem from past abandonment issues.
Ash candidly shares how working through these steps helped her realize that her behaviors were driven by deep-seated codependency. Her journey to self-love wasn't easy, but it was necessary. She emphasizes that real healing comes from within and that we need to stop looking for external validation. Ash's story is a powerful reminder that while it might feel awful to have your emotional state controlled by someone else, you're not alone in this struggle.
Happiness is possible, and it's supposed to feel good. Tune in to hear Ash's insights and start your own journey towards self-love.
