Codependence vs Interdependence: What's a Healthy Balance of Connection & Boundaries? Episode 396

Codependence vs Interdependence: What's a Healthy Balance of Connection & Boundaries? Episode 396

With all the conflicting relationship advice floating around, like "you shouldn't need your partner" versus "you should be able to lean on them emotionally", it's no wonder couples feel confused about what a healthy marriage really looks like. In this episode we unpack the real difference between codependence, hyper independence, and interdependence and why understanding where you and your partner fall on this spectrum could change everything.

We also share our own journey through these patterns and explore how they show up in daily life, especially in conflict, under stress, and when you're trying to get your needs met. If you've ever felt too needy, too shut down, or just unsure how to stay connected without losing yourself, this episode is for you. We'll walk you through the signs, the shifts, and the steps to build a partnership that feels secure and sustainable without giving everything away here.
