Full Episode
Your attachment system is a radar that is looking for safety and security in your relationships. Not just romantic, every relationship in your life. It's asking the question, am I safe? And am I safe to be me? It's really about not your relationship to the other person, but more about the space between you and the other person.
so anxiously attach people when there's too much space that creates fear and for avoidantly attach people when there's not enough space that creates fear we like bring people into our experience who trigger us in the exact way that requires us to heal and resolve the things from our childhood And we call it chemistry.
Whenever you tolerate someone who's ambivalent about you or inconsistent, etc., you have to become somebody who believes they're worthy of being ambivalent about. Everything we choose to keep in our life, we have to match with an internal narrative.
That's why I'm so passionate about people doing the work to really help them embody their inherent worth and value. And they can't help but attract somebody that meets them or elevates them.
The most thriving relationships prioritize the individuals and then the togetherness. When you actually recognize that your partner can leave you in any moment, she chooses to be with me. So how do I continue to be someone that is worthy of that choice?
