Do you struggle with saying "no"? Are you constantly trying to please others to avoid upsetting them? If so, you may be dealing with codependency issues. In this video, we explore the complex patterns of codependency and provide you with five crucial steps to break free and reclaim your independence.

Codependency can profoundly affect our relationships and overall well-being, trapping us in a cycle of seeking approval and validation from others.

But fear not, for there is hope and a path to liberation. Inspired by Melody Beattie's groundbreaking book "Codependent No More," we guide you through the following steps:

1. Recognize and Understand Codependency: Learn to identify the symptoms of codependency and gain awareness of how it affects your life.

Many have a misconception that the pursuit of success is the ultimate goal. However, this widely held belief is misleading. The true essence of fulfillment doesn't lie in chasing success; it lies in pursuing purpose. When we prioritize purpose over success, we attain a sense of lasting fulfillment. Success may be transient, often disappearing as swiftly as it comes, but purpose is an enduring quest that spans our lifetime. Interestingly, when we shift our focus from chasing success to following our purpose, success naturally follows. On the contrary, a singular focus on success can lead us away from discovering our true purpose—the very essence of our existence. This video will guide you through the steps to identify and cultivate your purpose, empowering you to feel inspired rather than exhausted.
