• When Your Partner Won't Change: Relationship Advice for Codependents: RED FLAG ALERT

  Have you ever been accused of being a problem simply because you brought up a problem? In healthy relationships, it is essential that couples feel safe and are on the same page. It is normal to want your relationship to grow, and to wonder where the line is when it comes to bringing things to your partner's attention that you would like to change. However, there are red flags you need to be aware of particularly if you struggle with fawning, people pleasing, insecure attachment and tend to be the codependent partner in relationships.  In this episode, Lisa A. Romano Codependency Expert and Breakthrough Life Coach, helps us get clear about some communication guidelines that can help us make clear, logical, and fair decsions about our relationships. Does your partner accuse you of being the only problem simply because you want to talk about a problem? Are they passive-aggressive, and do they punish you for bringing up an issue you'd like to work out? Do they deny a problem exists at all, making it impossible for you to experience any movement forward in your relationship or resolution? Are you being gaslit, devalued, or ignored for talking about a real issue? Consider these red flags, and also ask yourself: Does my partner have the willingness to listen? Are they capable of real change? Do they want to work on the relationship? Before walking away or making any major life decisions, getting clear about your partner's behaviors, intentions, and level of willingness to discuss, change, or work on marital issues, allows you to act on your own behalf with confidence rather than codependently.

• Why I'snt Therapy Working I Am Codependent: I am Getting Worse

  Codependency is an umbrella term used to describe a broad spectrum of emotional, mental and behavioral, subconscious, and automatic trauma responses developed in early childhood as an adaptation to chronic, inescapable stress. While over-functioning as a small child, to avoid rejection, the child's nervous system learns to scan their environment for potential threats. This scanning is called hypervigilance, and it also exiles the inner child into an abyss. Children of toxic, dysfunctional parents, families, and circumstances are denied the compassionate adult, whose role is to mentor, teach, and guide a child in a way that nurtures a positive sense of self. The very basics of healthy human interraction are not modeled. A child who has learned they must scan their environment must: Use their conscious waking hours scanning their parents' facial expressions, moods, and tones--while this is occurring, a child is learning how to morph and adapt, rather than explore the inner self, their inner child, their inner landscape Abandoning the self, including their innate needs, wants, emotions, and right to be authentic, to avoid further emotional neglect, abuse, bullying, or rejection—while this survival response was useful during childhood, the adult child eventually learns that they often don't know what they want or need. This can be a frustrating experience in therapy and relationships. If you are codependent, you may have felt frustrated in therapy when asked, "What do you need" What do you want?"  Codependents do not know what they need.  They Struggle to Trust Their Inner World Codependency is built on self-abandonment. Many codependents grew up in environments where their emotions were dismissed, mocked, punished, or ignored. Carl Jung would say their inner child—what he called the "Divine Child"—was exiled. So when asked: "What do you feel?" "What do you want?" "What do you need?" …they genuinely do not know. This creates enormous frustration in therapy, because the inner world feels foreign, inaccessible, or even dangerous. The codependent has learned to trust external authority over inner intuition. Reconnecting with the inner self requires time, patience, and the slow dismantling of shame. Therapy asks them to return to a Self they have never been allowed to meet. The journey back home must be slow, steady, and compassionate; otherwise, therapy can sometimes cause more harm than good and lead to a codependent person trying to please the therapist, thereby reenacting a facet of their adaptation survival response.

• Letting Go of Those You Love-The Price of Healing and Awakening

  Adult children of alcoholics, and those raised in narcissistic, toxic, neglectful and unpredictable homes, who decide to dive into self growth, self help and emotional healing, inevitably learn that they cannot unsee what they see now that they have awakened to the truth of their toxic family dynamics. This can be a distressing time for someone who has identified themselves as a caretaker, rescuer, people pleaser and who has felt responsible for maintaining family relationships, at all costs, and even at the expense of their mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health.  It is bittersweet to awaken to the truth of a toxic family system, and to be confronted by the fact that just because you can see the truth, it does not imply the people you love, who you have been enmeshed with and you have tried to save, fix or rescue, will want to see what you see.  In this episode, Lisa A. Romano, opens up about the emotional challenges of a healing adult child who struggles with abandonment trauma, codependency, and the fear of disconnection, who fawns to keep toxic family dynamics and unhealthy friendships afloat when they discover that they must let go of those they love.  In this episode, you will learn: ✨How to get more comfortable with accepting the uncomfortable reality of having to let someone you love go. ✨How codependency pushes God's love out and idolizes fear instead.  ✨What you need to know about making a spiritually aligned decision when needing to end a toxic relationship with a loved one, family or friend.  ✨Easy to recall Biblical Scriptures that reinforce the need for healthy boundaries when any relationship fills your heart with fear vs God's love. Your Healing Starts Within Lisa's 12 Week Breakthrough Program is a neuroscience-based roadmap to help you gently rewire subconscious patterns, regulate your nervous system, and return home to your authentic self. 👉 Begin your journey: https://www.lisaaromano.com/12-wbcp #HealingJourney #SpiritualAwakening #InnerConnection #TraumaRecovery #NeuroscienceHealing #SelfDiscovery #YouAreEnough #LisaARomanoPodcast #PurposeWithin #toxicfamily #adultchildrenofalcoholics #lettinggo #innerchildhealing #toxicfamilysystems #codependencyrecovery #lisaaromano #mentalhealthpodcast #healingjourney #selfhelppodcast

• Why You Feel Disconnected And How to Restore Purpose from Within

  If you've ever felt lost, numb, or silently asked yourself "Why do I feel so disconnected from life?" — this episode was made for you. Lisa A. Romano breaks down the root of disconnection through the lens of trauma, neuroscience, and spiritual awakening, revealing that the real crisis isn't outside of us — it's the illusion that we are separate from our true self. From childhood abandonment to social media comparison, our brains are programmed to seek meaning outside of us. But the more we chase purpose externally, the further we drift from the one place it has always been — within. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ Why trauma wires the brain to predict danger instead of joy 🧠 How subconscious programming creates a false identity—and how to break it 🪞 What it means to "merge with self" and stop living in survival mode 🕊️ A simple path to restoring meaning through presence, meditation, and self-observation You'll resonate deeply with this episode if: ✔️ You feel emotionally disconnected or spiritually empty ✔️ You live in your head more than your body ✔️ You crave peace but don't know how to access it ✔️ You're ready to stop chasing purpose and start embodying it Your Healing Starts Within Lisa's 12 Week Breakthrough Program is a neuroscience-based roadmap to help you gently rewire subconscious patterns, regulate your nervous system, and return home to your authentic self. 👉 Begin your journey: https://www.lisaaromano.com/12-wbcp #HealingJourney #SpiritualAwakening #InnerConnection #TraumaRecovery #NeuroscienceHealing #SelfDiscovery #YouAreEnough #LisaARomanoPodcast #PurposeWithin

• Breaking Through the Illusion of Self: Why You're Not Who You Think You Are

  What if everything you believe about who you are — your name, your past, your emotions, even your thoughts — is not actually you? In this powerful episode, Lisa A. Romano guides you beyond surface-level healing and into the core illusion that keeps so many of us trapped: the false self. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and spiritual wisdom, Lisa reveals how trauma wires the brain to associate authenticity with danger, keeping us neurologically stuck in survival mode long after the threat is gone. When safety is wired to people-pleasing, fawning, or emotional shutdown, the real you gets buried beneath layers of programming. But through conscious awakening, and by breaking through veil after veil of illusion, you can remember who you truly are. In this episode, you'll discover: ✨ Why your brain resists emotional truth even when your soul craves freedom 🧠 How survival patterns become neurological defaults 🚪 The moment you realize "That's not me" and shatter ego-identification 🔥 Why authenticity feels unsafe (and how to rewire it as safety) 🌟 The radical power of witnessing yourself as consciousness instead of conditioning This episode is for you if: ✔️ You feel stuck in the same emotional cycles ✔️ You've done inner work but still don't feel fully free ✔️ You've questioned your identity, purpose, or sense of self ✔️ You're ready to step into higher consciousness Begin Your Breakthrough Lisa's signature 12 Week Breakthrough Program is a neuroscience-based roadmap designed to help you break through subconscious programming, regulate your nervous system, and return to your true self. 👉 Start your journey: https://www.lisaaromano.com/12-wbcp #InnerChildHealing #SpiritualAwakening #TraumaRecovery #NeuroscienceHealing #EgoDeath #CodependencyRecovery #HigherConsciousness #LisaARomanoPodcast #FalseSelf #AuthenticSelf #12WeekBreakthrough
