About this listen
Free yourself from limiting behaviors and connect with the truth of love....
Are you sick and tired of opening up your heart only for everything to come crashing down again, exactly as it always has in the past?
Do you feel like most of your relationships drain your energy and leave you feeling depleted and exhausted?
Is your partner always full of energy and life, and although this fills you with joy, you can’t help but still feel some kind of emptiness inside?
Sadly, the behavior patterns we’ve learned and brought into our relationships aren’t always healthy, but we often have no way of knowing this.
Your parents may have been in a toxic relationship, or perhaps you’ve sought advice from your friends or other family members and are bringing that energy with you into your pursuits.
Either way, if any of the above sounds familiar, chances are quite high that you’ve fallen into an emotionally codependent relationship, and this is why everything keeps leading you astray.
As a naturally caring and empathetic person, it can be hard to understand where your boundaries need to be set in order to maintain your own wellbeing. Doing so doesn’t mean you have to cut other people out of your life, but it does mean that a more heightened focus may be necessary.
You can free yourself of all this worrisome burden and ensure that your next relationship is one of mutual support and admiration.
In fact, with the right tools, techniques, and emotional awareness, you can ensure that you never end up in one of these situations again.
In Codependency (The Need to Feel Needed), you’ll discover:
- The top six signs of codependency, and how to know if they’re happening to you
- Well-rounded insight into understanding the “victim mentality” and how you can free yourself from its grip
- How you can flip the script and begin to take positive action toward your self-love
- Why forgiveness will set you free, and how you can learn to do this with anyone, no matter what has happened in the past
- A play-by-play guide to building self-awareness and establishing healthy boundaries
- How to know your personality style and why this will help you understand your partner better
- How mindfulness can help you become less judgmental, as well as how to use this to enhance all of your interactions with others
- And so much more
Every relationship you enter doesn’t have to be like the rest. Just because the past has always been the same, this doesn’t mean you can’t change the future.
Freedom from your codependent tendencies is possible, and no, it’s not going to require years of effort and a ridiculous amount of money spent on therapists or personal growth courses.
With the right awareness and a bit of focus, your next relationship could very well become the best relationship of your life.
If you’re ready to move forward into a truly loving relationship, then scroll up and click the “Add to Cart” button right now.

Codependency can leave you feeling unloved, ignored, and unappreciated. You might find yourself having a hard time making decisions for yourself. Or you might find yourself being manipulated by others. You might even have a hard time identifying this pain as valid because you are so used to these feelings being a part of your life.

After listening to this audiobook, I think you’ll be equipped with some great tools for overcoming this often cyclical, destructive force and will be able to take back your life from it. It also covers some of the forces the lie underneath codependency — the fear of abandonment and the fear of not being loved. It’s helpful to see how all of those forces connect with one another. I think you’ll find it all helpful as well if you pick this one up.
