In this week’s episode, we’re diving into what I like to call “spring cleaning for the soul.” Not the kind with boxes and brooms—though those can be therapeutic too—but the kind that happens on the inside. We’ll explore what it means to let go emotionally, how to notice what no longer serves us, and how to create space for what we actually want to grow.

✨ Whether you're feeling stuck or simply ready to step into a new season with intention, this conversation is here to support your emotional refresh.

What does it really mean to love someone? In this episode of The Lemon Tree Coaching Podcast, Dr. Allison Sucamele explores the deep emotional roots of romantic love through the lens of psychology. From secure attachment to co-dependency, we unpack how our early experiences shape the way we connect—and disconnect—with others.

We’ll revisit Attachment Theory, explore the four main attachment styles, and examine how masking emotions can complicate authentic love. Dr. Sucamele also shares a personal story about being a research participant in a long-term attachment study—and how it changed the way she relates to others.

Whether you're navigating a new relationship, healing from an old one, or just curious about why you love the way you do, this episode is a must-listen.

💛 Take the free attachment quizzes from The Attachment Project and Verywell Mind to discover your own style.

Let’s talk about what love really looks like.

In this week's episode, we’re exploring the difference between being alone and feeling lonely.

We all know what it’s like to be alone sometimes, whether it’s spending a quiet evening in, taking a solo trip, or simply having some time to ourselves. But what happens when being alone turns into feeling lonely? And what’s the difference, exactly? That’s what we’re going to explore in this episode.

We’ll unpack the psychology behind these two concepts, how they affect us mentally and emotionally, and how we can navigate the complex dance between solitude and isolation.

This week, I'm exploring a fascinating and therapeutic practice that has been around for centuries but is gaining a lot of attention in today’s world: Bibliotherapy. 

If you’ve ever lost yourself in a good book, you may have already experienced the healing power of reading. But bibliotherapy is more than just reading for pleasure—it’s using books and literature as a tool for emotional and psychological healing.

Today, we’re going to break down what bibliotherapy is, how it works, and how you can use it in your own life to improve your mental health and well-being. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, or just looking to gain more insight into yourself, there’s a book for that. 

We’re not talking about gimmicky self-help books that are over-advertised in the mainstream media; we’re talking about reading with intention here. Not just reading what everyone else is reading for the sake of having read it. 

While self-help books and bibliotherapy both involve using reading as a tool for personal growth and emotional healing, they differ in their approach and context. So let’s do a little compare and contrast for clarity.

This week, we’re exploring a concept that many of us experience every day without even realizing it - self-fulfilling prophecies.

You’ve probably heard the phrase before, but what does it really mean? And how can we stop this psychological phenomenon from taking control of our lives? Well, in today's episode, we’re going to break it all down: how self-fulfilling prophecies work, the ways they influence our decisions, and most importantly, how we can shift our mindset to stop reinforcing negative patterns.

This week I'm discussing the importance of teaching people how to regulate their emotions. Emotional regulation is not just vital for personal well-being, but it’s also one of the most effective ways to prevent crime, reduce addiction, and foster a world where we can disagree without losing respect for one another.

This episode will dive into the importance of emotional regulation, backed by research from positive psychology, and explore how learning to manage our emotions can help create a safer, healthier, and more compassionate society.
