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.

know if you find this helpful. Examples where I'm talking through, okay, in this circumstance, I think

whatever circumstances you might be facing in your own life and a relationship.

all about. Before we dive into that, a couple of quick announcements. The first being that I am still
