In this episode Chalene and Bret talk about how early behaviors in their relationship resulted in some pretty serious codependency patterns.  Codependency can take on many forms. When the term was first used to describe their relationship, Chalene was very defensive. She took to the internet to read up on what it meant to be in an unhealthy relationship. It was easy to find definitions that didn’t seem to fit. But there are degrees of codependency and before long Chalene realized that being defensive about the label wasn't going to help. Growth is something we should all seek.   Thank you to our Sponsor!!! Organifi!!!
