In Episode 59, we talked about:
Attachment styles and how they impact leadership, relationships, and personal growth.
The four attachment styles and how they show up in our behaviors:
Secure Attachment — Confident, emotionally intelligent, and creates safe environments.
Anxious Attachment — Craves reassurance, struggles with boundaries, and often leans into people-pleasing.
Avoidant Attachment — Appears cold or distant, struggles with vulnerability, and avoids emotional connection.
Disorganized Attachment — A combination of craving connection yet fearing closeness, often unpredictable and reactive.
How these attachment styles can influence leadership, from over-pleasing team members to struggling with delegation or emotional connection.
Encouragement that your attachment style isn’t set in stone — healing and growth are possible with intentional work and God’s grace.
Practical tips for moving toward secure attachment, including:
Self-assessment — Honestly evaluating your attachment patterns and seeking feedback from trusted people.
Practicing vulnerability — Taking small steps toward emotional openness and healthy connection.
Emotional regulation — Using somatic practices and grounding techniques to calm the nervous system.
Turning to Jesus — Recognizing Christ as the ultimate secure attachment — steadfast, faithful, and always present.
A powerful prayer inviting listeners to receive God’s grace and healing as they grow into healthy, secure relationships.
