Your Partner Called You 'Needy' - Now What? | Ep 60

💖 Grab the 10 Signs and Tips for Relationship OCD Checklist

ROCD can make you feel like "too much" or "needy" in your relationships. As a therapist and relationship coach, I’ve worked with many professional women who struggle with these feelings, and I understand how difficult it can be.

I’ll share some personal stories and give you tips on how to manage the overthinking and intrusive thoughts that come with ROCD. You’ll learn how to stop asking for constant reassurance, recognize fear-driven behaviors, and take a pause before acting on urges. I’ll also talk about how practicing self-validation can help you feel more confident and build healthier relationships.

Throughout the episode, I’ll help you challenge the false ideas your mind creates and encourage you to be vulnerable. You’re not too much—your feelings are valid, and you deserve healthy, strong relationships.
