Our new friend Will share's his childhood experience growing up biracial in the deep south. We discuss codependency, people-pleasing tendencies, team cat vs team dog, and cutting toxic parental figures out of our lives for the sake of our own mental health.
Highlights:
- What does it actually mean to be codependent?
- Are you team dog or team cat?
- Will speaks about what it's like growing up biracial in the deep south
- Growing up with a parent who never healed themselves
Takeaways:
- We all get our shit together at a different pace
- Having codependent habits doesn't mean you can't break them
- You can grieve a parent but also feel relieved that the toxicity is gone
- The bonds you choose to hold on to can mean more than the ones you were born with
