Attachment Styles

Lets talk about attachment styles — how they’re formed, how they shape your emotions, behaviors, and relationships, and why so many of us unknowingly repeat the same painful patterns. I'm pulling from the work of trauma experts like John Bowlby, Mary Ainsworth, Bessel van der Kolk, and Gabor Mate. Explaining how childhood experiences leave lasting imprints on the nervous system — influencing your ability to trust, communicate, and even think clearly. You’ll learn: • The four attachment styles and how they show up in real life. • Why your behaviors and emotional responses are not “flaws” but adaptations to distorted lessons about love. • How generational trauma is passed down through epigenetics and the feedback loop. • Practical first steps to begin rewiring old patterns and breaking the cycle. This episode isn’t about blame — it’s about awareness. Because once you understand the roots of your attachment style, you can begin the work of healing, loving, and living differently.
