Codependency, Sustainable Self Care and Handling Ghosting Trauma with Krystal Mazzola Wood
Sherry and Carla engage in a lively discussion about effective ways to alleviate post-first date pressure, whether it involves a leisurely stroll in the park or a delightful ice cream outing. They then address a Love Fix Question about a listener's concerns about the lack of communication from their date. Then, they welcome Krystal Mazzola Wood, licensed marriage and family therapist who has made remarkable contributions to fostering self-love and establishing profound connections with others through her Healthy Relationship Foundation. Krystal's expertise shines through her authorship of two immensely popular books, namely "The Codependency Recovery Plan" and "The Codependency Workbook: Simple Practices for Developing and Maintaining Your Independence." She has a highly anticipated third book titled "Therapy Within Reach: Setting Boundaries," scheduled for publication in September 2023. Connect with Us!
