Summary

This episode is a special one because I was interviewed on the Girls Gone Wellness Podcast  and the questions they asked me were so good that I knew I had to share it with you here.

If you’ve ever wondered how to break free from anxious spirals, stop attracting emotionally unavailable partners, or move from self-abandonment to secure love, this conversation is for you.

Inside this episode, we talk about:

  • The four main attachment styles (and how they actually play out in dating + long-term relationships)
  • Why anxious and avoidant partners feel “magnetized” to each other (and how to break that cycle)
  • The difference between trauma bonding and genuine emotional intimacy
  • Practical tools to self-soothe, stop self-abandonment, and rewire toward secure love

✨ If you loved this episode, make sure to share it on Instagram and tag me @drmorgancoaching — I’d love to hear your takeaways.
