Anxious Attachment: Why You Get Attached So Fast (And How to Heal It)


Listen Later

In this episode, I break down anxious attachment—what it actually is, where it comes from, and why it can make love feel so overwhelming. I talk about how anxious attachment often forms in childhood, how it shows up as overthinking, fear of abandonment, and self-sabotage in relationships, and why so many people end up relying on others for reassurance instead of trusting themselves.

More importantly, I walk you through how to heal it. I share practical tools for recognizing triggers, regulating your nervous system, challenging anxious thought patterns, and rebuilding self-esteem so your relationships stop feeling like emotional rollercoasters. If you’ve ever felt like you care “too much,” get attached too fast, or lose yourself in relationships, this episode will help you understand why—and show you that anxious attachment is not a life sentence.
This conversation is about moving from fear to security, from chasing to choosing, and from anxiety to self-trust—so you can create healthier, calmer, more fulfilling connections.
