Damon and Kristina highlight how worry can be particularly troublesome for codependents and perfectionists, often leading to controlling behaviors that can damage relationships or even trigger a relapse. They dive into the neuroscience behind worry, explaining how the brain can get a dopamine hit when a worry comes true, making it a tough habit to break. But don't worry—pun intended—they've got some solid tips for you. One key takeaway is the importance of acceptance.
Damon and Kristina stress that while there are things you can't change, you can still take positive actions to improve your situation.

Throughout the episode, they provide practical tools for managing worry, such as training yourself to think positively and finding solutions rather than dwelling on problems.
