Summary

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “Wait… is this it? Is secure attachment just… boring?”

If you’ve felt that way at any point on your healing journey, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down why your nervous system might confuse peace with boredom, and how learning to love the calm, steady rhythm of secure attachment is actually one of the most powerful signs of deep healing.

Inside the episode:

How to know when you’ve outgrown an old version of yourself (and why it can feel uncomfortable)
What it really means when “secure” feels less exciting and how to rewire your nervous system to see stability as sexy
The difference between building relationships on chaos vs. creating them from emotional safety and deep connection

If this episode spoke to you and you’re ready to experience this transformation for yourself, now is the time.

0:34.8	secure, and love. Buckle up and let's get vulnerable. Welcome to the
0:43.1	Let's Get Vulnerable podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Morgan. I had planned to do the Love is Blind
0:49.0	recap today and I wanted to wait. We are going to do the recap once the reunion takes place because I know
0:57.5	there's all kinds of info coming in that reunion and that's going to help us kind of really get
1:03.9	the full picture. So I'm excited. There's so much that we can talk about. Nobody got married this season. And that was a love is blind first.
1:14.5	Probably not the first time that that should have happened, but it's the first time it did happen.
1:20.5	So I'll be bringing you that recap a little bit later. Like I said, got to watch the reunion.

1:36.6	the gossip. We're going to take the dynamics that played out on love is blind, the attachment
1:42.3	style dynamics, and help you make sense of it in terms of
1:46.0	what can we learn from an attachment theory perspective, and what does that have to teach us

2:00.6	what we've learned from these
2:02.4	couples and apply it to our own healing journeys and how we can actually look into what not to do.
2:11.1	And hey, if there's some good things, we'll talk about also examples of how to show up secure.
2:16.7	But I love to take these love is blind recaps and turn
2:20.5	them into educational episodes. So that's what we're going to do. It will be coming up here very
2:28.1	soon. So you will, you will love that episode, no doubt. Okay, today's episode, let's get into it. I wanted to kind of
