from Hold On, What Was I Saying? · host Emily Southwell and Megan Richards

We get brutally honest about our own most "unhinged" moments in relationships (hello, retroactive jealousy 👀), the fear of rejection that shapes how we love, and why chasing "secure" love can feel scarier than the chaos we're used to.We talk childhood roots, why your attachment style isn't a life sentence, and the one relationship that matters more than any romantic one: the one with yourself.If you've ever wondered "why do I do this in relationships?" — this episode is for you.In this episode:Anxious vs. avoidant vs. disorganised attachmentOur most unhinged relationship moments (we're not proud, but we're honest)How ADHD intensifies attachment woundsRetroactive jealousy and where it comes fromLearning to accept secure love when you're not used to itWhy healing starts with your relationship with yourselfGrab a glass of wine and settle in — this one's a vulnerable one.
