What if codependency isn't about being needy?

What if it's simply this:

"I need you to show up a certain way in order for me to be emotionally okay."

In this week's podcast, therapist and relationship coach Camille Canales shares how she discovered her own hidden codependency, and the surprising path to finding peace, even when other people disappoint, betray, or fail to meet our expectations.

We discuss:

• The hidden signs of codependency
• Why frustration, blame, and resentment are often signals of deeper pain
• How childhood experiences shape our adult relationships
• A simple 5-minute practice to become more emotionally aware
• How to stop losing yourself in relationships and find peace from within

If you've ever felt hurt by someone else's behavior, this conversation may give you a completely new perspective.

In this conversation, Brian sits down with longtime friend Tom to talk about one of the hardest parts of affair recovery: staying hopeful when healing feels painfully slow.

Tom shares his story of living a double life for nearly 18 years, the devastating moment of discovery, and the emotional roller coaster that followed. Together, Brian and Tom unpack what recovery really looks like behind the scenes—the setbacks, discouragement, shame, emotional explosions, and moments where giving up feels easier than continuing.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or tempted to quit the recovery journey, this conversation will remind you that healing is possible... even when progress feels painfully slow.

What happens when you don’t hear about the affair… you read it?

In today’s world, many betrayed spouses are discovering infidelity through text messages, emails, photos, and synced devices, what we call digital disclosure. And while it may feel like you’re getting the full truth, the reality is far more complicated, and often more damaging.

In this episode, Anne and Brian unpack:

• The difference between discovery vs. disclosure
• Why reading messages can feel like watching a traumatic movie you can’t turn off
• The hidden danger of believing everything you see in digital communication
• How affairs create an “alter reality” that distorts what’s written
• Why confession and conversation are still the healthiest path to healing
• Whether you should read everything—or protect yourself from unnecessary pain

If you’re navigating betrayal, or trying to avoid making things worse, this conversation will give you a perspective most people aren’t talking about.

Yes, you can move beyond the pain and get the life you want.
