Feeling Things with Amy & Kat

Why You Act The Way You Do In Relationships: Attachment Styles 101


Listen Later

Do you wonder why certain relationship patterns (i.e. anxious or avoidant) keep showing up in your life? Thais Gibson, an expert in attachment theory and co-founder of the Personal Development School, is talking with Amy about attachment theory—how it shapes our lives, relationships, and even the way we see ourselves.

Amy & Thais discuss:

- Attachment theory and how it relates to our relationships.

- How the 4 different attachment styles develop in childhood, and carry into adulthood. 

- Signs someone might have an anxious or avoidant attachment style.

- How to identify our own attachment style (especially if we feel like we don’t fit neatly into one category)

- Where to start if you're looking to develop a secure attachment.

- How a secure person reacts to not being texted back.

- How attachment styles influence romantic relationships.

- Red flags in relationships that might indicate attachment wounds are at play.

- Attachment theory and the connection between self-love and self-worth.

- How our attachment styles affect our friendships, non-romantic relationships, parent/child relationships and professional relationships.

- How attachment styles impact our boundaries.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by the idea of changing your attachment style, Thais offers some encouragement!
