There’s a hot topic in the dating and relationships arena that I rarely mention. I haven’t really had an episode dedicated to attachment styles. So I’ve brought on a therapist, love coach, and Irresistible Woman podcast host Madeline Charles to talk about attachment theory and how to overcome insecure attachment styles.

In part one of this two-parter, we discuss the three main styles and she gives her perspective on how they develop and impact who you do or don’t date. Then in part two, I go on Madeline’s show to discuss how to use inner child work to help you overcome some of the unhealthy attachment types. So let’s dive in!

7:30 - Madeline quickly introduces herself

8:16 - Defining attachment style and theory

10:23 - Origin of your attachment style: nature or nurture?

11:59 - Anxious attachment style and how it might tie back to your childhood

14:31 - Signs of having the anxious attachment style as a dating adult

16:41 - Avoidant attachment style, how it can form during childhood, and what it looks like as an adult

21:40 - What it looks like when two people with anxious attachment date each other

23:27 - Trademarks of the secure attachment style

25:07 - How you can be a blend of two styles

26:53 - Moving beyond the label of your attachment style

32:07 - Highlighting an unstereotypical aspect of the anxious style as I wrap up the episode
