Codependents R US
In this much anticipated sixth episode of the Sister C Podcast, my guests (Rochelle Evers and Bianca Raine) and I provide an in depth and relatable discussion of Codependency. We discuss each of our personal stories as people who experience codependent patterns of how to overcome them. You can look at this episode as three case studies of Codependency, which highlights the interplay between trauma, attachment and addiction.
If you're uncertain whether codependency truly applies to you, you can visit coda.org/meeting-materials/patterns-of-recovery to see if these patterns (denial, low self-esteem, compliance, control and avoidance) resonate with you.

Learning How To Grieve Our Sister
This episode is dedicated to the life of our sister Tracy, who lived life on her own terms. Join us (Joël and Amy) as we share our story and discuss the lessons and gifts that we continue to receive from our sister. We also offer some advice to those who are grieving or supporting a grieving loved one. Themes/main points include: There are gifts and lessons in grief. The stages of grief are NOT linear. Time isn’t the most important thing, it’s the ONLY thing. There are helpful & unhelpful ideas about grief (e.g., grief has a timeline). We also talk about how to deal with difficult emotions (e.g., guilt) and what to say/what not to say to a grieving loved one.
