In this episode, we explore the different attachment styles we develop in childhood and how they impact our adult relationships:
Anxious attachment: Fearful of abandonment, characterized by clinginess and emotional highs and lows.
Avoidant attachment: Independent and emotionally distant, often stemming from inconsistent childhood care.
Dismissive attachment:Difficulty expressing emotions and commitment, rooted in feeling unloved or unlovable.
Fearful avoidant attachment: Chaotic childhoods lead to a mix of anxious and avoidant behaviors.
Secure attachment: Balanced approach to intimacy and independence, resulting from healthy early relationships.
