610: Understanding Attachment Styles with Thais Gibson


The quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our relationships. While most people would probably agree with that statement, they would also admit that their relationships are often troubled. From a psychological perspective, attachment theory can be a helpful frame for understanding our patterns of emotional connection and strife, and it can also provide a path forward toward balance and security.

On this week's podcast, you'll meet an author whose work is centered around understanding yourself to create space for healthier relationships.

Listen and learn:

  • How to identify your attachment style as secure, anxious, avoidant, or dismissive
  • Why we're often attracted to people who struggle in similar or familiar ways
  • Why our fundamental needs must be met
