Summary
In today’s episode I revisit one of your favorite topics: ATTACHMENT THEORY.
This episode is long overdue as it dedicated to the exploration of Fearful Avoidant Attachment (aka Disorganized Attachment)
This attachment style impacts approximately 5-7% of the population; and it is incredibly valuable to understand it.
In this episode:
- W define what exactly Fearful Avoidant Attachment is.
- We discuss why disorganized attachment is the most painful attachment style.
- We unpack the origins of disorganized attachment.
And so much more!
If you are curious about your own attachment style, make sure you have taken the FREE QUIZ I offer using the link in my bio on IG.
P.S. If you’ve been on the fence about joining the E.S.L program, the time to act is NOW. The doors are closing on March 15th, and I am not sure when I will be re-opening the program. Use the link below to apply now:
