Ever wonder how your earliest experiences of love and connection with caregivers are playing out in your adult relationships? Join me, along with couples therapist Vanessa Morgan, as we uncover how attachment styles developed in infancy can have a far-reaching influence on our interaction patterns with romantic partners and even our children. Vanessa guides us through understanding different attachment styles, the importance of self-reflection, and the powerful effect of establishing secure connections that can rewrite our relationship narratives for the better.
We learn that expressing personal needs and understanding the physical sensations linked to emotions are essential skills for healthier interactions. Vanessa and I also tackle the delicacy of parental conflict, the necessity of a post-argument narrative for children's emotional security, and how these moments of repair can strengthen our bonds.
Lastly, we highlight the importance of addressing personal traumas, the principles of secure functioning in partnerships, and how these steps can prevent negative cycles from repeating in future generations.
