In this episode of the Love Stories podcast, I dive deep into the complex dynamics of over-functioning in romantic relationships with my guest, Dr. Ashley Southard, a licensed marriage and family therapist. We explore the emotional landscape that many successful women navigate when they find themselves in one-sided, unfulfilling love relationships.
As we wrap up the episode, we touch on the importance of self-awareness and the power of making conscious choices in relationships. Dr. Ashley emphasizes that while it’s essential to work on oneself, it’s equally important to recognize when a partner is unwilling to do their part. We encourage listeners to reflect on their own relationships and consider whether they are in a healthy, fulfilling partnership or if they are simply maintaining the status quo out of fear or obligation.
