386. The Hidden Codependency Keeping You Tied to Your Ex-Husband with Sherry Gaba

What if the reason you keep attracting the wrong partner…has nothing to do with them and everything to do with you?

 

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I sit down with Sherry Gaba, licensed psychotherapist and relationship coach, to talk about why so many smart, successful women fall into the trap of toxic relationships—even after divorce. We get into love addiction, codependency, trauma bonds, and how your childhood patterns shape who you choose as a partner. And most importantly, we talk about what to do if you’re ready to stop repeating the cycle.

 

If you’ve been wondering why you keep attracting emotionally unavailable or toxic partners, this episode is for you.
