We Were Wrong About Secure Attachment & It's Ruining Our Relationships
from The Liz Moody Podcast · host Liz Moody
We have more resources than ever before to become securely attached, but rates of secure attachment are DROPPING. Dr. Marisa G. Franco, professor of psychology, says it’s because we’re getting attachment theory all wrong. In this episode, Dr. Marisa G. Franco shares clear solutions so we can have better relationships with others, with ourselves, and feel better overall. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • Exactly how you can change your memories to be happier and more securely attached • What attachment style you are (and when it can change) • How attachment styles are formed and how to actively change them • The two types of "high self-esteem" and which one you want • A habit that signals insecurity, even when you think you're secure • What’s happening when getting the love or job you want doesn’t make you feel better longterm (and what actually will) If you like this episode, check out “The 40 BEST Health & Happiness Hacks I've Learned In 40 Years” episode: • Listen/Watch on Spotify • Listen on Apple • Watch on YouTube For more from Dr. Marisa G.
