This week on Typology, I sat down with my dear friend, therapist and spiritual director, Michael Cusick for a raw, wise, and deeply compassionate conversation about the connection between attachments and our path to healing.

Michael—founder of Restoring the Soul and a true guide for the journey inward—helps us unpack the idea that our symptoms (anxiety, compulsions, burnout, you name it) aren’t signs we’re broken…but sacred signals that our soul is calling for care.

We talk about:

• How trauma, shame, and burnout stand in the way of our relationship with God 
• Why “trying harder” doesn’t lead to transformation
• What spiritual bypassing actually looks like—and how to avoid it
• The Four S’s of attachment -- seeing, soothing, safety, and security – and the crucial role they play in spiritual healing

This is one of those episodes you’ll want to listen to more than once and maybe share with a friend who’s in the thick of it.
