In this episode, Maria explores the topic of codependency, focusing on its origins and how it can affect relationships and self-regulation. She explains that codependency often begins in childhood when co-regulation with caregivers or environments is insufficient, leading to a reliance on external sources—such as people, substances, or environments—for emotional regulation in adulthood. Maria distinguishes between codependency and healthy collaboration, emphasizing the importance of developing self-authority and independent regulation.

Listeners are guided through a series of steps to identify and heal codependent tendencies, starting with self-awareness and empathy. Maria emphasizes the value of reparenting the inner child and fostering feelings of belonging and safety within the body.

She encourages listeners to activate their personal authority and shift from codependency to collaboration by building trust and authentic relationships. This process helps individuals move beyond old patterns and embrace healthier, more empowering ways of relating to themselves and others.
