“When you don’t allow yourself to be sovereign, you take away other people’s ability to be sovereign. We think we’re winning. We think it’s a badge of honor. We think all of these really limiting, misguided things. But in truth, everyone is being hurt. Everything and everyone is at a detriment.” – Tracy Litt
Today on The School of Becoming:
- Unpacking the misunderstood concept of codependency and how traditional definitions fail to capture the full spectrum of how it manifests in modern life.
- Exploring high-functioning codependency (HFC) and how over-responsibility, over-functioning, and hyper-independence create exhaustion, resentment, and a loss of self.
- Discussing the hidden costs of being an HFC, including burnout, lack of boundaries, and the unintended consequences of trying to control others’ outcomes.
- Introducing the path to recovery, emphasizing self-consideration, surrender, and the power of allowing others to take responsibility for their own lives.
- Providing actionable tools for breaking free from HFC tendencies, including key questions to ask before saying yes and the importance of letting go of people-pleasing behaviors.
