Summary:
Many people put others’ thoughts and opinions on a pedestal and, in doing so, ignore their own emotions. This line of thinking leads to codependent behaviors, constantly trying to please or even to change others, which can have negative effects on us and those around us. With this book, Karen Casey teaches you to value your own opinion over that of others and to improve your life through boundary-setting. You’ll learn how to recognize and acknowledge your own attachments and codependency; set boundaries, find peace, and engage in healthy detachment; and nurture positive relationships with the people in your life--Adapted from back cover.
