Ep. 81 | When Your Marriage Feels Lonely: Grief, In-Laws & Not Knowing Your Place - Office Hours with Iris and Taylor

Ep. 80 | Why You “Check Out” (And Don’t Even Realize It)
Ever gone numb during conflict? Forgotten entire conversations? Felt disconnected from yourself, your partner, or your life? You may be dissociating — and most people don’t even realize they’re doing it. In this episode, Kate breaks down what dissociation actually is, why the nervous system uses it for protection, and how it quietly impacts relationships, communication, intimacy, parenting, and conflict. She explains the signs you’re emotionally leaving before your body does, why shame keeps the cycle going, and what healing actually looks like — both for yourself and with the people you love. If you’ve ever felt “checked out,” emotionally flat, overwhelmed, frozen, or unable to stay present in hard moments, this episode is for you.

Ep. 79 | Your Family Won’t Change… Now What? | Office Hours with Chuck
Chuck is estranged from his mom and brother and keeps asking the same painful question: How do I have a relationship with people who won’t change? But Kate challenges something deeper underneath it all: what if his constant need to help, rescue, explain, and fix them is actually protecting him from grief? This episode unpacks the exhausting cycle of trying to manage emotionally unavailable family members, why “helping” can become a form of control, and what happens when you finally stop waiting for people to become who you need them to be. Kate explains why healing sometimes looks less like repairing relationships… and more like learning how to celebrate your own life without guilt.

Ep. 78 | When Your Parents Won’t Heal: Breaking Generational Trauma While Raising Kids | Office Hours with Fay & Amelia
Fay and Amelia are two mothers facing the same devastating realization: the pain their parents caused didn’t end in childhood. It followed them into marriage, parenting, and the way they see themselves. In this Office Hours episode, they unpack what happens when your parents can’t take accountability, can’t emotionally repair, and may never become the people you needed. But the harder question is this: how do you raise emotionally healthy kids while carrying unresolved trauma yourself? Kate walks Fay and Amelia through processing their internalized trauma, and breaking the cycle through empowering their kids. This episode is for anyone trying to BE different while still healing from what happened to them. Find more @CodependencyKate on Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok www.codependencykate.com

Linda and Emily are in different stages of marriage, but they’re asking the same question: how do you stop losing yourself while trying to make a relationship work?

Kate breaks down what it actually means to “decenter men” without becoming cold, detached, or anti-relationship. If you’ve ever felt like your needs, identity, friendships, body, or purpose disappeared inside your marriage, this conversation will hit hard.
