Description

Attachment theory is everywhere right now — anxious, avoidant, fearful, secure — but after infidelity, simply understanding your attachment style doesn’t stop the emotional whiplash.

In this powerful episode, Lora Cheadle is joined by Bryan Power, a Certified Integrated Attachment Theory Coach, for an honest, grounded conversation about how attachment wounds actually show up after betrayal — and what it really takes to heal them.

Together, they break down the four attachment styles, explore why betrayal hits attachment at its core, and walk through the six pillars of Integrated Attachment Theory — practical tools that move you from survival and confusion into clarity, safety, and secure connection.

This episode goes beyond theory. You’ll learn why insight alone doesn’t regulate the nervous system, how subconscious wounds drive behavior, and what helps betrayed partners stop feeling “crazy” when triggers hit — without excusing betrayal or bypassing accountability.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know what’s happening — so why does it still hurt this much?” — this episode is for you.

 

Top 3 Takeaways

  1. Knowing your attachment style doesn’t equal healing
    You can name your pattern perfectly and still panic when your partner withdraws. Healing happens through felt safety, not logic alone.
  2. Betrayal exposes unhealed attachment wounds — in both partners
    Infidelity doesn’t come from nowhere. It often reveals deep subconscious beliefs around safety, abandonment, worth, and betrayal that were never healed.
  3. Secure attachment is built — not born
    Through the six pillars of Integrated Attachment Theory — core wounds, needs, emotions, boundaries, communication, and behavior — couples can move toward safety, clarity, and conscious connection.
