This session touches on a crucial topic that I think we can ALL resonate with. It's an area that I feel we should all develop our knowledge in order to improve our relationships (not just romantic). Our attachment style can be a scary predictor of relationship success; as these patterns of attachment are typically set in childhood they tend to follow us around through to adulthood. ๐ญ Have a listen to S4:E3 now as The Inner Yats and I explore the science behind attachment theory, different attachment styles, recognising your own attachment style, how our behaviour can sabotage a relationship (consciously or subconsciously), and how can we overcome such behaviours? ๐ง Thanks in advance for tuning in! Happy Christmas and have a fab New Year everyone! โญ๐ thedamselindatingdistress.co.uk / @thedamselindatingdistress
