In this episode of the Best Ever You Show, host Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino welcomes Terri Cole, a renowned author and therapist, to discuss her latest book, 'Too Much,' and the concept of high functioning codependency. The conversation explores Terri's personal journey from the entertainment industry to becoming a therapist, the importance of boundaries in relationships, and the challenges of parenting adult children. Terri shares insights on how to navigate codependency, set healthy boundaries, and foster meaningful connections with loved ones. The episode also touches on the significance of female friendships and the impact of family dynamics on personal growth. Takeaways: Terri Cole emphasizes the importance of boundaries as personal rules of engagement. High functioning codependency can manifest in capable individuals who feel responsible for others' feelings. Asking expansive questions can deepen relationships and foster intimacy. Navigating adult relationships with children requires respect for their autonomy. The journey of personal growth often involves teaching what one needs to learn themselves. Female friendships are essential for happiness and support. Resentment can be a key indicator of where boundaries are needed. Transitioning to open door parenting involves allowing children to make their own decisions. It's important to reclaim time and focus on reconnecting with partners after children leave home. Terri's community offers support and resources for those seeking to improve their mental health.
