You're listening to On Attachment, a place to learn about how attachment shapes the way we experience relationships

and where you'll gain the guidance, knowledge and practical tools to overcome insecurity and build healthy, thriving relationships.

I'm your host, relationship coach Stephanie Rigg,

and I'm really glad you're here.

Hey everybody, welcome back to another episode of On Attachment. In today's episode, I'm answering

the listener question of how to not lose yourself in a new relationship.

So this is a pretty common conundrum, I think, particularly among people with anxious attachment

patterns. As we know, there is a tendency to really go all in on a new relationship, a new

connection that you're really excited about.

And that can mean that you don't neglect other areas of life and can become so laser-focused on

the new connection to the exclusion of all else in a way that crosses over into being maybe not so healthy.

So I think it's a really good question and one that I'm excited to share some thoughts on

because I think it'll be relevant to many, many of you who struggle with anxious attachment

and notice this pattern within yourself. So that's what we're going to be talking about today.

Before I dive into that, a reminder, if you listen to the last episode that I'm running a 50%

off sale for the next few weeks on all of my master classes and my two courses that are available for sale.

So everything excluding Healing Anxious Attachment, which isn't currently open for

enrollment.

But you can save 50% off any of those masterclasses or courses with the code, hey, baby, all one

word, which is a nice little way for me to offer you something

while I'm a little less active while I'm taking care of my new baby and a way for you to support

my work at this very special time if you feel so inclined to.
