A Godsend

This podcast has been more helpful for me in healing from Co-dependency than a year of therapy. This podcast is a godsend.

Incredibly helpful

Alana has made learning about codependency and perfectionism so access. Through her interviews and solo sessions, she shares so many examples of how codependency shoes up in our lives. I have learned so much about myself, and believe this podcast offers a valuable first step in healing my codependency.
