185. Breaking Free From Codependency and Building Self-Trust w/ Caroline Winkler

In this episode of Dating Intentionally, I’m joined by Caroline Winkler, one of my favorite YouTubers with nearly 1M subscribers! Caroline is also the co-host of the Not For Everyone podcast. I reached out to Caroline after seeing her amazing video on relationship with her fiance and how she redefined the age-old advice to "date outside your type." We’re diving into the messy, powerful journey of breaking out of co-dependence and learning how to build real self-trust. Caroline opens up about how she stopped abandoning herself in relationships, started honoring her boundaries, and eventually found someone who could meet her there. We talk emotional availability, the courage it takes to change, and what it really looks like to date intentionally. At the end, we answer a dating dilemma from a woman who doesn't love how her date treats her pet. This one will inspire you!  Here's the video I'm referring to about Caroline's story about her engagement and dating outside of her type!
