The desire to feel seen is something we all crave deeply. It is especially heightened when it comes to romantic relationships, yet this wound sources back to early childhood. When you don’t feel seen by your partner, it can affect your self-esteem, confidence, and fulfillment within relationship.

In today’s episode of Divine Union Nicola discusses the desire to be seen, its origins and shadow sides, as well as how you can show up in a way that creates conditions for you to feel more wholeness, self-love, and validation, and ultimately be seen more deeply, as a result.

Your attachment style is created in early childhood. The way you learn to attach to your early caregivers mirrors how you attach to your romantic partners. Understanding your attachment style is very helpful for your relationship empowerment and satisfaction, because when you understand where you came from, how you’re triggered, and the meaning you give to your triggers, then you know how to work with it. This will also help you be a better partner because you will understand how to best work with your partner’s style, and identify more easily when they might be triggered. 

In today’s episode of Divine Union, Nicola breaks down the four attachment styles, what they often look like in childhood, and how they manifest in romantic relationships later in life.

The biggest constant in life is change, yet as humans, we suffer as we attach to people, places, and things. We cling to a specific way of being, our beliefs about ourselves, our lovers, and what a “normal” relationship looks like. We forget that as humans on this planet, we are constantly growing and evolving, as are our partners, our relationships, and the world around us.

In today’s episode of Divine Union, Nicola digs into this theme of non-attachment, what it means, and how to practice it so we can have deeper intimacy and more passion in relationship.
