Still Within
Alana Carvalho on Codependency
Do you feel like you have to be everything for everyone—perfect, accommodating, and always in control? In this episode I sit down with Alana Carvalho, the Codependent Perfectionist, to explore the deep connection between codependency and perfectionism and how these patterns keep us stuck in cycles of overgiving, self-sacrifice, and burnout.
We dive into how breaking free from perfectionism doesn't mean losing motivation--it means gaining joy, curiosity and creativity. Healing from these patterns allows you to move from constantly proving your worth to actually feeling your worth.
Alana shares powerful insights on recognizing narcissistic abuse and the role of therapy in rebuilding self-trust. We touch on why true healing isn’t just about the mind—it’s a full mind-body-soul transformation. If you’ve struggled with people-pleasing, emotional exhaustion, or feeling like you’re never “enough,” this episode is your invitation to step into self trust, freedom and joy.
