0:00.0	Welcome to the Let's Get Vulnerable podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Morgan Anderson, psychologist, relationship coach, attachment theory expert, creator of the ESL relationship method, author of Love Magnet and Athletic Wear Connoisseur. My mission is to help you raise yourself worth, have great relationships, and step confidently into the next level of your life.
0:22.3	Each week, two episodes will air featuring expert advice, live coaching, and tips, showing you
0:28.4	exactly how to improve your life and attract a healthy relationship. You deserve to feel empowered,
0:34.8	secure, and love. Buckle up and Let's Get Vulnerable. Welcome to the Let's Get
0:43.5	Vulnerable podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Morgan. Today's episode will benefit each and every one of you.
0:51.2	It doesn't matter where you are in your healing journey. If you are in a
0:55.9	great relationship and you're feeling great in your life, this will still benefit you. If you are

1:07.1	benefit you. This is a topic that I come back to again and again and again. It doesn't

1:32.2	good things into our lives. So what am I talking about? I am talking about learning how to feel

1:50.7	how this is connected to your nervous system, and why having a disregulated, bunched-up nervous system that's stuck in fight, flight, freeze, or fawn,
2:06.3	why having that nervous system is actually preventing you from what you want in life.
2:13.8	So this episode, I know it's kind of going back to the root of things, but trust me, this is one
2:20.4	you're going to want to listen to again. You're going to want to share with people. And if you
2:24.8	apply this to your life, I guarantee you, you will start feeling better immediately. Okay. So let's just
2:33.1	jump in. But before I do, I want to make sure you know
2:36.7	I have a really special gift for you this September. I'm giving you my private podcast,
2:43.1	which is a deep dive into understanding attachment styles, learning how to actually rewire your
