Why Anxious & Avoidants Attract (and How to Fix it) with Thais Gibson

I sit down with Thais Gibson to break down what attachment really is and how it shapes our relationships. We dive into anxious, avoidant, and fearful attachment styles, how social media is impacting connection, and why so many couples get stuck in the same patterns. Thais shares a practical framework for rewiring core wounds and building secure attachment. If you’ve ever felt trapped in push-pull dynamics or struggled to communicate your needs, this conversation will give you clarity and direction.
