Breaking the Chains of Codependency: Tanya and Jerry's Personal Story

If we're requiring outside circumstances to be in a specific way, then we're always chasing something that's fleeting and may not be there to give us the happiness that we think it will.
Have you ever wondered why some relationships leave you feeling drained and dependent? In this eye-opening episode of 'Sober on Purpose', hosts Tanya and Jerry Gioia get real about codependency and how it can shape our lives from a young age. They share their own experiences, revealing how these patterns are learned early on with our primary caregivers. But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom.
Tanya and Jerry also offer practical advice on how to shift from codependency to interdependence, promoting healthier, more balanced relationships. One fascinating experiment they discuss involves assigning each family member the task of cleaning their own dishes. This simple act aims to empower their children to be more self-sufficient and responsible. The duo also dives into the importance of emotional management skills and the need to challenge traditional gender roles for a more equitable family dynamic.
If you're looking for honest, relatable insights into breaking free from codependency and building stronger, healthier relationships, this episode is a must-listen.
