Description
Does your life revolve around your loved one’s addiction? Are you ready to shift your focus to yourself? Detachment 101 is designed to bring awareness to the codependent tendencies that are holding you back and provide tools to begin emotionally detaching yourself from the addict in your life.
The best way to support the addict in your life is to start taking care of yourself. What’s the hardest part of self-care? Getting started. As a codependent, we are engrained with the idea that it is our job to be the caretaker, the fixer, the protector.
By being all of these things though, our dreams and true purpose gets left behind. Detachment can be overwhelming and scary. This course is meant to ease you into your transformational journey.
We will begin the course talking about typical codependent behaviors, which will allow the student to gain some self-awareness about where they are now. We will then expand on a few core tools for detachment including self-reflection and care, effective communication and boundaries and releasing control.
The course will end with a personalized action plan for students to use to implement the strategies and processes more effectively.
We will cover:
- Codependent tendencies
- Self-awareness
- Journaling
- Effective Tools
- Effective communication
- Boundaries
- And much more...
Who this course is for:
- This course is suited for individuals who are ready to make a change in their life but are unsure how to get started
- Individuals who are willing to be honest with themselves and challenge themselves
- This is not suited for those looking for an easy way out

My passion for helping others started at a young age. I was drawn to people in need and had a deep desire to be an inspiration for happiness. Growing up, I was deeply affected by family members battling addiction. My life experience combined with my passion for people has lead my on this journey to become a Transformational Coach focused on supporting people affected by addiction.
I spent my years in college at Stevenson University as a Human Service major learning more about people and helping professions as well as gaining a deeper knowledge of addictions. I then pursued my life coaching certificate through the International Coach Academy and ACC credentials with the International Coach Federation.
I have found my purpose in life in the lives of others. I live to be a support structure and inspiration for my clients. By instilling the idea that we all have the capability to reach our dreams, my vision encompasses a world with more perspective, adventure and happiness.
Research published this year by Harvard and Stanford Business Schools suggests that health problems associated with job-related anxiety account for more deaths each year in the US than Alzheimer’s disease or diabetes. It is likely that the same is true in the UK.
The combination of the Amazon story and the recent study into the impact of work-related stress means that there are important questions that all organisations should ask themselves.
These include: What type of management culture do we foster? What informal conflict management techniques do we offer to foster healthy workplace relationships? What are we doing to enable people at work to enjoy their jobs and thrive, both psychologically and physically?
Scott teaches non-violent communication techniques that help managers live healthier productive lives.
