In this episode of Our Wellness Room, we continue our series on relationships. Listen in as we explore how family of origin experiences can shape our attachment styles, sense of autonomy, and the way we show up in romantic relationships. When caregivers struggle with attunement or encouraging independence, those patterns can follow us into adulthood and may show up in our romantic relationships

Our first relationships shape the way that we see ourselves and the world. In this episode, we discuss the family of origin relationship - the caregivers who nurtured us or those who were not attuned, and how those early relationship dynamics impact brain development, attachment, safety, and identity.
