Healthy Dependence ≠ Codependence

Somewhere along the way, “needing people” started getting a bad rap.
We began to confuse healthy dependence—the give-and-take of safe, supportive relationships—with codependence—losing yourself in order to keep connection.

This kind of interdependence is what helps us thrive.
It’s not weakness. It’s not clinginess. It’s how we’re wired.

You are allowed to need.
You are allowed to be needed.
That’s not brokenness—it’s belonging.
