Welcome back to another episode of the podcast where I’m taking you on a journey of healing and self-discovery.
In this episode, we’ll start with discussing the concept of trauma bonding and why individuals might be drawn to partners who mirror their parental figures. Understanding this link is crucial to being able to recognize and break free from unhealthy patterns, even if they feel familiar.
From there we will deep dive into personal examples of the intricacies of attachment styles and how they play out in relationships leading to the transformative power of finding a secure partner.
Reflecting on my clients experiences and my own journey, we’ll explore the importance of individual healing within relationships and why I think marriage therapy alone might not be the solution since partners need to actively engage in their own personal work first.
As I’ve recently started dating someone who is by far the most securely attached partner I’ve had yet, I’ll expound on the significance of finding a partner committed to personal growth and
shed light on the challenges and rewards of dating someone securely attached.
I’ll also dive deeper into my own encounters with anxious and avoidant behaviors to contrast and highlight the profound impact of dating a securely attached partner and how it can shape and heal your interactions in relationship.
Join me as I navigate the joys and complexities of building a secure and nurturing relationship. From processing triggers to fostering vulnerability and growth, it’s a journey that I hope will offer inspiration for those seeking deep connection and healing in romantic partnership.💕🌟
