  EP69: There Will Be Grief

  Jun 28, 202626 min

  Have you ever felt down, but believed you shouldn't be—so you pushed through pretending everything was fine? In this episode, Jodi gets honest about her own experience with this pattern, tracing it back to undiagnosed ADHD, perimenopause, burnout, and a divorce that sent her love addiction into overdrive for the next 15 years. Using Pia Mellody's five core issues of codependency and the eldest daughter/Hero role, she unpacks how enmeshment teaches us that being needed is safer than having needs—and makes the case for family-of-origin recovery work, especially in midlife (even though there will be grief).
