Hey, just having listeners. Just me today. I thought I would answer some of your questions. This

0:04.2

first question is, why would someone have deep insecurity about being lovable, even though they

0:10.6

had good enough parents and experienced unconditional love and of question? Yeah. This is an interesting

0:18.7

question relevant, particularly to this podcast since I am so often connecting relationship issues,

0:25.1

attachment issues, emotional issues as an adult to issues with parenting early in life, particularly

0:31.5

early in life. And some people will say, well, I had a pretty good childhood and yet I have deep

1:44.6

to seem to be a good candidate as to why that would happen. One is that for some people,

1:51.8

when they look back on their childhood, they see parents and family life that was pretty good.

1:58.8

But it's hard to detect what was actually going wrong in the parenting. For example,

2:05.2

you can have a, and I've treated clients like this. You can have a parenting style that is very

loving and very secure and non-chaotic and non-abusive, where the child throughout their life
