LX2 Codependency Coaching

Self-worth and feeling deserving

Talking about where the messages about our worth comes from, either from our childhood home, school and the environments we are in. We develop how we see ourselves from how other people perceive us and treat us. We are all worthy of healthy love. #lx2codependencycoaching #assholeinyourhead #checkyourfacts #findingyourworth #middleschoolsucks #wherethecrawdadssing

Love better

Flashing forward to a new timeline in Northern Ireland. Talking about how we can love ourselves better rather than loving other people in hopes that they get better. How do we meet our own needs and validate our own experience before someone else's. Working on taking care of yourself first and communicating effectively. Using skills and boundaries when navigating through relationships. #roadtrip #askingforyourneeds #lx2codependencycoaching #lovingyoubetter #loveyourself 

Self concept and self-esteem

This episode is about how we conceive of ourselves based on internal and external perspectives. How we see ourselves as a human on the planet and how you feel about yourself in the role. Book mentioned The Magical Art of Not Giving a Fuck S. Knight (2015). #selfconcept #selfesteem #fuckbudget #timealone #selflove

Self-love v self-care

Starting to change the perspective about how we see and love ourselves. Coming into a relationship from a place of abundance rather than lack. Shifting our language and how we treat our sweet selves. Self-love will help to create healthy boundaries and limits. 

Codependency in Romantic Relationships

How we are in relationship can trigger Cod coping skills. The conversation can be helpful to recognize where we compromise parts of ourselves to be in relationships. We start to teach people how to treat us when we shut down to avoid negative emotions, conflict and unwillingness to compromise. There are also some potential solutions to fix some of the challenges that come up in long term relationships. 

Acceptance, forgiveness and letting go

Its important to accept where your CoD comes from. Forgiving the people who contributed and forgiving yourself. The last piece is to work on letting go of those past experiences and starting over. Starting over everyday to be the best version of yourself.  #lettinggo #acceptingyourself #lx2codependency #forgiveness

Challenges of setting boundaries

What does it feel like to set a boundary with people? It is helpful to start to see the patterns of your relationships  in your life; coworker, family members and friends. If you have always been the person people come to when they need something, that is sign a boundary. There will be grief, sadness and anger. Taking care of yourself first and managing your peace is your first priority. #lx2codependency #family #settingboundaries #limits #creatingnewhabits

Family Ties: The Myth of Family

The family dynamic can trigger Codependency responses. How are you showing up in your family? What are the expectations of you and your people? What are your expectations? What would be helpful is to learn healthy awareness of how spending time with family feels. Be aware of your triggers and responses.

Trust yourself

It can be challenging to trust yourself. It's important to work on identifying what you want, truly. Aligning between your head (thoughts), your heart (emotions) and your intuition (your gut) in a key piece to healing. Detach from other people's opinions.  Work on figuring out what you need. #selflove #lx2codependencycoaching #trustyourself #allsad #trustyourintuition
