From a certified somatic life coach, a feminist guide to reclaiming your self-worth and having healthier relationships—perfect for fans of Burnout and The Body Is Not an Apology.

Do you say “yes” when you mean “no?” Do you end up in lopsided relationships, feeling resentful but not sure how to speak up? Do you feel anxious, struggle with perfectionism and imposter syndrome, or feel like you’ve lost touch with your true self? You’re not alone: Thousands of people, especially those of us socialized as women, struggle with Emotional Outsourcing—a term nurse practitioner and life coach María Victoria Albina coined to describe the codependent habits that keep us stuck.

In End Emotional Outsourcing, Albina explores the origins—both personal and systemic—of these tendencies, and coaches listeners through a science-backed program of thought work and somatic practices.

Listeners will learn to:

• Regulate their nervous systems
• Reframe their habitual thoughts and actions
• Take back their time and energy
• Improve relationships with parents, friends, and partners
• Discover their inherent self-worth and lovability

Groundbreaking, healing, and urgent, End Emotional Outsourcing is poised to change the conversation about codependency, and help an entire generation of women step into their power.

You Are Safe, You Are Held, You Are Loved

End Emotional Outsourcing is exactly the book I’ve been waiting for. It is a clear, compassionate, and practical guide for those of us who struggle with people-pleasing, perfectionism, or codependent habits. Beatrice Victoria Albina’s no-nonsense yet deeply nurturing approach blends thought work with somatic practices, making the tools both science-based and body-centered. I loved listening to the audiobook in her own voice, and the print version is full of easy-to-find prompts, exercises, and resources (plus links to bonus downloadable worksheets!). As a longtime fan of the Feminist Wellness Podcast, I appreciate how this book compiles her best insights into a single, accessible resource. It’s already helping me personally, and as a licensed professional counselor, I’ll recommend it to my clients as well.

Albina ends the book with her signature message—“You are safe, you are held, you are loved. And when one of us heals, we help heal the world.” This perfectly captures the heart of her work. Truly a must-read for anyone ready to stop self-abandoning and reclaim their wholeness.
