The Anxiety of Being “Good”: A Spiritual Take on Codependency

The anxiety of being good shows up in the small moments: overexplaining, freezing in conflict, or waiting for someone else to approve your feelings before you trust them. Spiritually, this is a reminder that your heart’s voice has been muted, your sense of belonging outsourced to others. I help you rediscover that voice, trust your inner guidance, and reconnect with the truest parts of yourself. It’s in this place where panic can soften, the mind quiets, and your body feels more anchored. When you do, possibilities open up; you stop disappearing for others, set boundaries without guilt, make choices from clarity instead of fear, and experience connection, joy, and ease flowing naturally through your life.
