“Wow! Loyal to a Fault breaks down the idea of loyalty, specifically for people-pleasing women, and how being too loyal to others can create brokenness within yourself. Courtney talks a lot about creating boundaries and how important it is not only to create boundaries with others but also with yourself. If you find yourself struggling with your relationships, spending more time and energy on others emotions and needs that you neglect your needs and emotions, find yourself resenting the ones you love, or overall exhausted from the cycle of people-pleasing, you NEED to read this book”

Read by the author.
Do you find yourself living as the people pleaser or peacekeeper? Do you avoid conflict? Learn how to overcome your fears about setting boundaries and step into a life that's overflowing with love, respect, and healthy relationships.
We are people who love patterns, even if returning to these patterns continues to hurt us or those we love. Some of the most harmful patterns of behavior are passed down through generations and inherited, often without our permission or awareness. The conflict arises when these behaviors are so deeply woven into early family systems that they later become part of our identities, clashing with who God has created and called us to be.
As a child, Courtney Burg quickly learned that remaining loyal to others meant keeping secrets, even if these secrets were keeping those she cared for most sick. Her efforts to sustain the peace followed her into adulthood and slowly left her depleted, discouraged, and drowning in the chaosโuntil Courtney discovered that not only did God grant her permission to engage in relationships differently, but that he gave her specific instruction on how to do so.ย
In Loyal to a Fault, Courtney Burg unpacks the various ways we cope with, enable, and participate in unhealthy relationships or generational trauma. Using personal examples and providing practical wisdom, Courtney helps you break free from codependent patterns by:
- Identifying the role you are playing in keeping the dysfunctional patterns going.
- Reframing what it means to love and remain loyal to those who matter most.
- Reminding you that boundary work is a biblical practice.
ย
It is possible to learn how to love others well without losing yourself along the way. People pleasing, complaining, and exhaustion may be today's norm, but at any moment you can choose to do things differently. Begin setting boundaries and start enjoying relationships in all the ways God designed you to.
