Social Fabric Podcast

A Social Fabric Live in Conversation with Louize Carroll
Relationships are at the heart of our lives. They shape our well-being, our sense of belonging, and often our greatest joys—and frustrations. Why do we sometimes find ourselves repeating the same patterns? Why do certain people trigger us more than others? And what does science actually tell us about the way we connect, love, argue, and repair?
In this live Social Fabric conversation, Andrea Splendori sits down with chartered psychologist Louize Carroll, founder of Wisely Attached, to explore the fascinating intersection between the science of attachment and the beautifully messy reality of human relationships.
Together they will unpack the invisible patterns that influence how we show up in relationships — from emotional triggers and attachment styles to the stories we carry from our past. Expect a thoughtful and engaging evening that blends psychology, real-life stories, practical insight, and the occasional moment of humour about the strange ways we humans relate to one another.
Whether you are curious about your own relationship patterns, interested in the psychology of connection, or simply enjoy deep and lively conversations about what makes us human, this event promises an evening of reflection, insight, and conversation.

The Science and Chaos of Relationships, an exploration of why relationships can be both our greatest challenge and our greatest opportunity for growth.
