On Attachment

In today’s episode, we’re talking all about discomfort — specifically, why it’s so essential in any healing journey to reframe the way we approach and relate to getting uncomfortable. 

Most of us recoil at the first sign of discomfort, preferring to stay squarely within the domain of what we know and can control. But this often means we’re confining ourselves to a very limited experience of what’s possible in our lives. 

We’ll cover:

• Why we tend to gravitate towards what is familiar and known
• How embracing discomfort builds resilience 
• Physical protocols for exploring discomfort 
• Building our emotional capacity for discomfort

Have you ever wondered why your relationship struggles persist, even when you love each other and have tried and tried to make it work?

In today's episode, I'm sharing three essential ingredients to make a relationship work. These are fundamental pillars of healthy, lasting partnership - and yet, for a lot of people, one or more of these puzzle pieces are missing. 

We'll cover:

• the importance of structural compatibility (ie, wanting the same thing)
• being willing to invest in the relationship and the work it takes to make it thrive
• the issue of capacity and how to know when someone can't give you what you're asking for (despite their best intentions)

Anxious attachment can be incredibly exhausting - but it doesn't have to govern your future.  And in today's episode, I'm going to be laying out the path to healing anxious attachment, walking you through the core pillars of my methodology.

We'll discuss the importance of self-regulation and how we can start to build self-trust and safety from within rather than depending solely on a partner to make us feel secure. 

We'll also delve deep into the core beliefs that drive anxious attachment, and how addressing these stories and wounds can liberate us from the fear of abandonment and feelings of unworthiness.
