According to attachment theory, there are four different attachment styles: secure, anxious, fearful-avoidant, and dismissive-avoidant. These are shaped by a child's early interactions with their primary caregiver and, as adults, they tend to show up most clearly in romantic relationships. Today, I'm joined by relationship coach and writer Silvy Khoucasian to explore how these attachment styles show up in our lives and how we can better navigate them and nurture healthy relationships. In this conversation, Silvy and I discuss her work as a relationship coach, what the four attachment styles look like in relationships, how you can figure out your attachment style, the way attachment patterns pass down through generations, strategies for breaking unhealthy patterns, what you can learn from Silvy's courses and books, why healthy boundaries are crucial, and more.
