How To Know If You're Codependent [& What to Do About It] with New York Times Bestselling Author Melody Beattie

How To Know If You're Codependent [& What to Do About It] with New York Times Bestselling Author Melody Beattie

Hello my friends and welcome back to Too Smart For This! This week's episode is with New York Times Bestselling Author Melody Beattie, who wrote the critically acclaimed CODEPENDENT NO MORE: How to Stop Controlling Others and Start Caring for Yourself. Since its publication in 1986, the book has sold over 7 million copies and continues to help countless readers heal. For the first time, Beattie unflinchingly reveals her personal story. She also addresses trauma and anxiety in an all-new chapter—subjects she has long felt necessary to address within the context of codependency. She has broadened the lens to address a wide range of compulsive behaviors—making the book even more relevant today than it was when it first entered the national conversation over 35 years ago. Glennon Doyle, Jen Hatmaker, Brené Brown, Whitney Cummings, and many others have been vocal about the importance of CODEPENDENT NO MORE in their lives—and this new edition is poised to reach a new generation of readers.

Melody Beattie's compassionate and insightful look into codependency—the concept of losing oneself in the name of helping another—has guided millions of readers toward the understanding that they are powerless to change anyone but themselves and that caring for the self is where healing begins. With personal reflections, exercises, and instructive stories drawn from Beattie's own life and the lives of those she's counseled, CODEPENDENT NO MORE helps you break old patterns and maintain healthy boundaries, and offers a clear and achievable path to healing, hope, freedom, and happiness.

Happy Monday Baddies! In the name of balance, this week we're bringing back a past episode with one of our favorite creators and founders, Madisen Dewey!
As a content creator and consumer of social media, Madisen began to notice that the power of building community online was overpowered by the toxic traits of social media. Taking a leap of faith, Madisen quit her job at YouTube and began building Herd Social, an app that isn’t driven by metrics and helps users to discover communities that fit their interests. Throughout this episode, Madisen gets real about her experience as a woman in the tech startup space, what led her to taking Herd Social seriously, how Herd Social is starting the social media revolution, and so much more.
