The Dog and Cat Marriage | Episode 271


Listen Later

Have you heard about the dog and cat marriage? It might sound like a crazy concept, but it’s one that has helped us not only understand each other, but also help other couples understand how attachment styles are impacting their marriage.

We created this idea of “dogs” and “cats” to explain the different attachment styles, and we’ve discovered that applying this concept is one of the top ways we see marriages change and heal in our coaching sessions.

Regardless of whether you are more of a “cat” or a “dog”, everyone can benefit from this helpful analogy to understand how your attachment style plays out in your relationships.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • What it means to be a “dog” or a “cat” in your marriage
  • Some tools to help you understand your attachment style
  • Ways we can move toward a secure attachment style
  • And more!

We hope this conversation helps you begin to better understand your attachment style!
