September 17, 2025My Fearful Avoidant Origin Story: How Tracing Back My Attachment Finally Made Sense of My Relationships
I promised you guys real and raw on The Attachment Confessions — and episode 2 delivers. This one got a little emotional (okay, a lot emotional), but it's the episode that ties everything together. 💜
If attachment styles are formed in childhood, then understanding my fearful avoidant origin story means going back to when I was 13 years old — the moment everything I thought I knew about my family changed overnight.
What we cover in this episode:
A quick recap of all 4 attachment styles and how they're formed (great if you're still getting oriented)
My childhood — the parts that were genuinely wonderful, and the big T trauma that changed everything
The night I found out my dad had bipolar disorder and what those months of uncertainty did to my nervous system
How hypervigilance develops — and why I became hyper-aware of the "temperature" of every room I walked into
The pattern I didn't see until now (aka why I kept attracting emotionally unstable partners and what my subconscious was really chasing)
Dr. John Delony's concept of being "attracted to our unfinished business" — and why it hit me like a truck
Why you can't change anyone else — but you absolutely can change your own attachment style
This episode is personal in a way that surprised even me. But if your own childhood left some scars you've never fully connected to your relationship patterns — this one is for you.
Insecure attachment is learned. Which means it can be unlearned. And that hopeful message is the whole reason I'm here!

September 10, 2025 Attachment Theory Explained: The Beginner's Guide to All 4 Styles
Welcome to the very first episode of The Attachment Confessions — I'm Chelsea, and I am so glad you're here!
Attachment science genuinely changed my life, and this podcast exists because I believe it can change yours too.
In this episode, we're starting from the beginning. I'll walk you through the history of attachment theory — who developed it, when it emerged, and why it still matters deeply today. Then we'll get into the good stuff: the four attachment styles.
Whether you're an Anxious Preoccupied (AP), a Dismissive Avoidant (DA), a Fearful Avoidant (FA), or already rocking Secure Attachment (the goal we're all working toward!), this episode will help you understand how your style was formed, what your core attachment wounds are, what you need most in relationships, and the patterns that may be quietly running the show.
Chances are, you'll recognize yourself pretty quickly.
Once you figure out your attachment style, come find me on Instagram @theattachmentconfessions and tell me which one you are — it genuinely helps me shape future episodes around what you all need most.
Throughout this podcast, you'll have a front-row seat to my own attachment healing journey. We'll go deep, get real, and have a lot of fun along the way. My biggest hope? That somewhere in these episodes, you feel inspired to start your own attachment healing journey, too.
