In this conversation, Terri Cole and Keresse Thompson explore the complexities of high functioning codependence, its roots in family dynamics, and the challenges faced in relationships, particularly with narcissistic partners. They discuss the emotional toll of over-responsibility, the importance of vulnerability, and the journey towards empowerment and self-acceptance. The conversation emphasizes the need for self-awareness and the courage to make changes in one's life to foster healthier relationships and personal growth. takeaways High functioning codependency is about being overly invested in others' outcomes. Resentment can serve as a guide to identify where boundaries are needed. It's important to ask others how they want to be supported. Many capable individuals struggle with codependency without realizing it. Setting boundaries is essential for maintaining personal peace. Compulsive caring can lead to burnout and resentment. Asking expansive questions fosters deeper connections. Therapy can empower individuals to change their life narratives. Authenticity in relationships is crucial for emotional well-being. Recognizing one's own needs is vital in helping others. High functioning codependents often feel responsible for others' well-being. Hyper-independence can hinder vulnerability and connection. Family dynamics play a significant role in shaping codependent behaviors. Narcissists often attract high functioning codependents due to their complementary needs. Self-awareness is crucial in breaking the cycle of codependence. Burnout and health issues are common consequences of codependency. Parentified daughters often bear unrealistic emotional responsibilities. Empowerment comes from recognizing one's own needs and boundaries. Disappointment is a natural part of asserting oneself in relationships. Change is possible with the right guidance and support. titles Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Book Launch Excitement 05:45 Terri Cole's Journey to Therapy 12:08 Myths and Misunderstandings of Codependency 18:01 Resentment as a Guide to Boundaries 24:09 Holding Space and Compassion in Relationships 32:23 The Impact of Family Dynamics 44:36 The Costs of High Functioning Codependence 53:39 Empowerment and Taking Control of Your Life To get in touch with Terri: https://www.terricole.com Buy Terri’s book here “Too Much” https://hfcbook.com/ If you like this podcast please leave me a review and rate!
