This Hidden Attachment Wound Is Driving Your Hustle with Jessica Baum

1 hour 5 minutes

You don’t struggle in relationships because you’re broken…
You struggle because your nervous system learned how to survive.

And until you understand how you learned to love, you’ll keep repeating patterns that don’t feel like you.

In this powerful conversation, George is joined by licensed psychotherapist and relationship expert Jessica Baum to explore the deeper layers of attachment, trauma, and emotional healing.

Together, they break down how early experiences shape the way we show up in relationships and why so many people find themselves stuck in cycles of anxiety, avoidance, or disconnection.

Jessica shares practical tools and grounded insights to help you move from reactive patterns into conscious connection, emphasizing that healing is not about fixing yourself, but about learning how to relate differently to yourself and others.

This episode is both a mirror and a roadmap for anyone ready to build more secure, aligned, and fulfilling relationships.
