Listen Later

Do you have a relationship stuck on repeat? Are you caught in a toxic loop with someone you know isn't good for you but you can't seem to let go of?

In today's episode, Kristen and Leslie navigate the emotional landscapes of individuals who find themselves ensnared in unhealthy connections, mistaking love for dependency. Through personal stories and expert insights, we explore the reasons we sometimes form a toxic attachment and the psychological mechanisms that perpetuate these patterns. From obsessive longing to the fear of letting go, we'll uncover the complex emotions that keep individuals bound to destructive partnerships.

This episode will also offer practical advice and strategies for breaking free from these harmful bonds. We want to help you understand the interwoven connection between attachment style, compulsion, patterns and worthiness. Whether you're personally struggling with a toxic attachment or seeking a deeper understanding of relationship dynamics, this episode will shed light on the journey from addiction to liberation. Join us as we learn how to reclaim our sense of self and forge healthier, more fulfilling connections.
