With Biblical truths and tools, you can begin to break-free from compulsions. There is a better way to live!
Ever felt trapped in the endless cycle of trying to fix, control, or rescue others? In this episode of 'Crossroads with Jenny Bushkell', Jenny sits down with Ellie Kittrell, Founder & Executive Director of The Muse Knoxville, to dive into the often misunderstood topic of codependency. Through candid conversation and a touch of humor, they share their personal battles with codependency and how it has shaped their lives and relationships.
Ellie opens up about her own roller coaster journey, revealing how her compulsions to achieve perfection and maintain control led to significant emotional turmoil. She discusses how codependency isn't just about unhealthy relationships but also about unrealistic expectations and unrelenting standards we set for ourselves. This need to be 'good' and 'right' all the time can lead to pride and tension, ultimately stealing our joy and identity.
Jenny and Ellie don't just stop at identifying the problem; they offer practical solutions rooted in biblical truths. They discuss how relying on faith, extending grace, and experiencing the consequences of our actions can help break the chains of codependency. They also highlight the importance of community support, especially in times of decision overload and extreme situations like those many are currently facing. By sharing their stories, Jenny and Ellie provide a roadmap for anyone struggling with codependency.
They emphasize that it's possible to live a life of abundance by letting go of the need to control and fix everything. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand codependency better and take steps towards healthier, more balanced relationships.
