Welcome to a podcast for compassionate people — helpers, givers, healers, empaths, and leaders — who are done abandoning themselves in the name of kindness. Here with your host, therapist, boundaries cartoonist, and author Molly Davis Moon, we’re waking up to our truth, setting boundaries that heal, and reclaiming our sacred space in the world. We believe in fierce gentleness, embodied love, and in the quiet, joyful uprising that happens when compassionate people stop shrinking and start shining. We’re not just dreaming of change—we are becoming the change. One empowered soul at a time.

013 | What Codependency Really Means (and Why It Matters)
Codependency is a word many of us have heard – but do you really understand what it means?
In this episode, Molly dives into the origins of the word codependency and explores why it so often traps compassionate people in painful relationship patterns. You’ll learn where the term came from, how it evolved, and why it still matters today – plus why boundaries are the key to moving out of codependency and into freedom.
There’s hope: Codependency isn’t your fault, and you’re not doomed to live in it forever.
