“Kids are not wired to deal with adult problems. It puts them in an uncomfortable position and this absolutely stokes codependency, feeling overly responsible for other relationships in their life.” – Terri Cole

Intro

Have you ever wondered whether you’re too close with your family of origin?

Does it feel like your life kinda revolves around them?

Or are you guilted and shamed by them for wanting to pursue your own thing?
