Burden of Cause

What is the "burden of cause"?

It is a term I use to describe believing you cause other people to treat you the way they treated you.
When we are enmeshed this way, we will internalize people's behaviors as a reflection of some internal flaw or problem that we then must change.

This leads us to believe that the other person will change, too, creating a potent fantasy that leaves us hurting, helpless, and confused.

Listen in this episode to learn how to detect if you're taking on this burden and how to shed it completely.

FOUNDATION: To exit the survival phase of codependency and enter real healing and creation, you must develop emotional safety, social belonging, and independent self worth. I call these the Three Necessities, and they are what causes your body to start advocating instead of functioning from codependency. You cannot have peace, freedom, healthy relationships with these solidly in place.

Foundation guides you step-by-step in creating real emotional safety, belonging, and self-worth over 15 weeks. If you're ready to be done with the pain, shame, and chaos codependency brings to your life, start here.
