How Detachment Transforms Love, Life & Self-Worth with Sabrina Bendory


Listen Later

This episode dives into the concept of detachment, learning how to let go, stop overthinking, and stop settling for less in relationships. Sabrina Bendory, author of 'Detached: How to Let Go, Heal, and Become Irresistible,' joins Gabby to share her approach to reclaiming self-worth and embracing emotional freedom.

Sabrina’s work as a relationship coach, writer, and influencer focuses on helping people stop chasing love and start attracting it by building confidence, regulating emotions, and reconnecting with their own values. Drawing on psychological insights and practical tools, she explains that detachment is not about indifference or game-playing, but about creating a grounded, authentic sense of self that no longer relies on external validation.

Throughout the conversation, Gabby and Sabrina examine how fear and self-doubt influence attachment, the stories we tell ourselves, and the ways letting go can lead to deeper self-trust, clarity, and magnetic authenticity. Gabby shares why she chose Detached as the November Book of the Month, describing how it helped her uncover personal insecurities, reframe negative self-talk, and recognize that much of her anxiety was in her own mind.

Gabby and Sabrina unpack the psychology behind attachment and how it influences our romantic decisions, revealing how a shift toward self-acceptance can transform not only our relationships but also our overall well-being. They explore the energetic dynamics of connection - how clinginess can be felt on a visceral level and why it often pushes others away. Plus, Sabrina shares powerful insights from her book Detached, a must-read for anyone ready to stop settling and start thriving.

Sabrina Bendory is a globally recognized expert in dating and relationships. As co-founder of A New Mode, she has guided millions of people with relatable, insightful advice and continues to share her expertise through Thought Catalog, TikTok, Instagram, and private coaching. Sabrina’s work has also been featured in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Newsweek, and The New York Post. Her previous best-selling book, 'You’re Overthinking It,' and her latest release, 'Detached,' provide readers with transformative strategies for emotional resilience, self-trust, and authentic confidence. 

Whether you're single, dating, or in a relationship, this episode offers practical tools and empowering perspectives to help you build self-assurance, navigate fear, and show up as the most grounded, confident version of yourself.
