The journey from co-dependency to empowerment is not easy - but one challenge that isn't being talked about is the (very real) danger of becoming "too" empowered.

Hyper-independence has just as many relationship pitfalls as its disempowered counterpart, co-dependence. Yet, many empowerment industries are pushing this new mindset with no regard for the significant problems it creates in relationships.

Join me, dating and relationship coach Natalie Ford, as I talk about why empowerment is necessary, how to recognise hyper-independence when you hit it and how to create healthy relationship bonds so you can finally create lasting love.

I cover questions such as:
- What Is Self-Love?
- How Does Co-dependency Impact Your Relationship?
- What Is Over-Functioning?
- What Is Hyper-Independence?
- The Traits Of An Empowered Woman
- How To Avoid The Empowerment "Trap"
- The Difference Between Co-dependency And Healthy Bonding
- The Difference Between Trauma Bonds And Healthy Bonding
- How To Know If You're In A Trauma Bond Relationship
