Say You’re the Thing Before You Become It + Codependency vs. Creativity | Erika Wright

Have you ever noticed that the moment you step into a new, big, chapter of your life, your old patterns can suddenly come rushing to the surface? I have… In this episode, I share a major realization I’ve had during week three of full-time entrepreneurship: sometimes you have to start saying you’re the thing before you fully become it. I share how I came to this, how it helped me manifest one of my biggest dreams and how you can use it in your creativity and career. Now back to what I started with…every time you level up, you need to level up your growth and self-development… and for me, one of those edges is continuing to heal codependency, people pleasing, and learning not to abandon myself while building a life and business that’s truly mine.So today, I’m replaying one of my favorite conversations from the archives with codependency facilitator and spiritual counselor Erika Wright.This conversation completely changed the way I think about self-worth, relationships, creativity, emotional resilience, and what it actually means to stay connected to yourself.From this conversation, you’ll learn:-How to identify and heal codependent patterns-The difference between creativity and codependency-How to stop abandoning yourself for other people-Why emotional discomfort is not an emergency-How to stop giving unsolicited advice and start turning inward-And how to stay connected to yourself while still loving othersThis episode is especially for you if you’re in a season of reinvention, entrepreneurship, healing, motherhood, transition, or personal growth.More on Erika Wright: https://erikawright.org/🎙️ Connect & Work with Me:If you love this episode and want personalized support to break through creative blocks, build confidence, and finally share your work with the world, I’d love to help.
