How long does it take to break patterns?  What you can expect when you start doing inner work. Why do we need the parts of ourselves that we actually hate? When we have shame, it releases stress hormones. When we have love and compassion, it stops the cascade of stress. What is no contact and how can we help move through the feelings of withdrawal it gives us?  We need to understand that even the things that we think make us flawed have self protective functions. How can we get out of shame for feeling codependent?  More on Britt’s book, The Science of Stuck, along with how to work with Sherry and Carla on overcoming codependency, dating, break-ups, healing from toxic relationships, and gaining confidence.   Disclaimer: The Love Fix Podcast content has been made available for informational, entertainment, and educational purposes only.
