All of us have either been the person who, even if they know it's happening, can't stop dating carbon copies of the same person over and over again; OR we've been the friend watching it happen, wanting to beat our head (and our friend's head) against the wall.

And if that doesn't resonate, maybe you've been the person who keeps seeking praise and validation from a boss who's stingy with compliments, or maybe you've been the person who really wants to get close to people but runs away as soon as things get too vulnerable.

How you show up in relationships—romantic, platonic, professional, familial—is VERY much influenced by your attachment style.

There are 4 styles, and only one of them is healthy. And none of us have just 1 style (sooo … do the math—that means we've all got at least some unhealthy relationship patterns).

In this brand-new side chat we're getting into some Psych 101 and breaking down:

• Each of the 4 attachment styles—What they mean, and where they came from.
• Why attachment theory explains SO much about your unhealthy relationship patterns.
• Why some people just can't stop being codependent, while others can't help being avoidant (and why some people are, oddly enough, both).
• How to start breaking the cycle of your attachment style and become healthy in all of your relationships.

After you've listened, leave a comment to let us know what your attachment style is and how this episode is helping you think about your patterns differently!

TODAY IS THE LAST DAY FOR 1-ON-1 COACHING ENROLLMENT!

Today, (Friday, October 18th) is the LAST day to consider signing up for coaching for quite a while!

• We're taking on about 20 people in this official "wave," and we do NOT have all of those spots left.
• This is for people interested in getting started ASAP (October or early November).
• You don't have to know for sure that you want to move ahead with coaching. You just have to be serious enough about it to want to have a conversation.
• We WILL have coaching spots open up in the coming months, before we take on the next "official" wave of clients (which won't be until later in March 2020). So if you're not ready now, or you've found us in-between "official" enrollment periods, then you can add your name to the wait list and we'll contact you when we have an availability.

If you're ready to talk about the possibility of coaching, fill out the form on this page and we'll schedule a brief phone call with you!

And if you want a deeper conversation about our coaching process, listen to our episode from last Tuesday, October 8: Why career coaching has almost nothing to do with your career.
