    Codependency And Shame - What's Really Happening

    Codependency And Shame - What's Really Happening

    Codependency And Shame - What's Really Happening

    You cannot become free of your codependency until you break free of what I call "Your Root Identity".

    Codependency depends on a root identity.

    What is a root identity?  It is an identity that you FEEL and experience as utterly true about yourself.

    You filter the world through this identity and it controls how you live your life.

    Learn what this root identity is and what do to about it so you are free from it.

    3 Priorities For Satisfaction If You're Codependent

    3 Priorities For Satisfaction If You're Codependent

    3 Priorities For Satisfaction If You're Codependent

    Do you often feel:

     - Empty, frustrated, or used?
     - Wonder why your life is not fulfilling or satisfied?
     - Feel lost as to what you want, value, or even need in your life?

    Codependency has us prioritizing others emotionally, physically, mentally, and even financially or intimately.  

    This happens through acts of people-pleasing, perfectionism, avoiding conflict, and even trying to fix their problems for them.

    We are confusing someone else's world as our own, creating disconnection, depletion, and frustration in our experience.

    Your satisfaction, fulfillment, peace, or contentment depends on alignment - alignment with people, places, things, and purposes that naturally contribute to and nourish you.  

    This kind of alignment requires that you choose yourself - repeatedly.  

    Choosing yourself means you are prioritizing things that matter to you over that of other people's demands, approvals, disagreements, and expectations.

    This is where you start feeling more fulfillment, clarity, trust in yourself, and you start to experience life in *your* way.

    You're Not Emotionally Blocked - You're In Need Of Love

    You're Not Emotionally Blocked - You're In Need Of Love

    You're Not Emotionally Blocked - You're In Need Of Love

    The term and concept called "blocks" is prevalent in the self-help and healing world.  It is something that sabotaged my healing, satisfaction, and personal alignment with my purposes and joy, as I was drawn to try to fix, eliminate, and overcome these "blocks".

    This wasted over a decade of energy, time, and money in my life, leaving me highly discouraged and feeling broken.

    Then I learned what was really happening and began thriving.

    I share this discovery and how to implement it into your life right now so you aren't wasting time, energy, money, and life trying to get past your "blocks" in today's episode.

    Listen or watch below!

    3 Things You Must Unblend From Others If You're To Thrive

    3 Things You Must Unblend From Others If You're To Thrive

    Codependency has us blending ourselves with others.

    What is blending?

    It is confusing one's self with another's reality.  An example: You know their feelings and mistake their feelings for your feelings.

    This is a common form of being enmeshed with another.

    In today's episode, I show you three critical things to unblend from others so you experience more peace, confidence, power, and healing in your daily life.  This is the path to becoming free of your codependency.

    3 Things You Must Trust In Yourself If You're To Heal And Thrive

    3 Things You Must Trust In Yourself If You're To Heal And Thrive

    Abuse and neglect conditioned you to naturally distrust yourself.  You learned to discount the legitimacy of your lived experiences, the importance and value of your emotions, to seek your worth through pleasing others and being "good", and so much more.

    To heal, your distrust must be healed into trust.

    I share the 3 essential things you must begin trusting again if you're to align and thrive in your well-being, peace, and satisfaction.

Very comforting and practical advice

Thanknyou Marshall. I pove your comforting voice and gentle style as well as your profound and wise insights into codependency and advice. I also really like the fact that the podcasts are short so that I can listen to and digest each episode fully at one time.

Marshall thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with addressing codependency! I greatly appreciate your empathy for this topic and the compassion you encourage all of us to hold onto! It is been an incredible addition to my own journey of healing. I particularly love that it’s not to long just w Ohhh time to digest the information you are sharing!

Excellent Podcast

The Bluntcakes are exactly what I need to hear. Cuts through the really long interviews to drive home the point.
