Let's Review! Attachment is a Major Key for Better Relationships

Your Attachment Style helps you understand how you relate to others, what your triggers and blindspots are (and why), and gives you a map to what you Need to feel safe and happy.

Everyone has either an Insecure style or a Secure style.

Insecure Attachers struggle with maintaining healthy relationships due to excessive anxiety and/or avoidance.

The goal is to Shift to Secure attachment where you can have solid, lasting relationships.

First and foremost, your relationship with yourself will improve as you get a better grasp on your emotions and thoughts. Then, you’re able to engage with others in new, healthier ways.

I see a clear rise in the number of women who say they are abstaining from physical intimacy. This can make dating difficult. I understand this personally!

It makes it even MORE difficult when you’re not really being honest with yourself and/or others about WHY you’re abstaining.

Here are some things to consider if you are dating while abstaining, and hopefully it is also helps men understand what questions to ask, where women are coming from in general, and how to navigate the conversation better

Most people dating seem to be WAY more concerned with what they’re getting rather than what they can give!

Everyone is in relationships to fulfill some kind of personal goal but it becomes selfish and toxic when you lose sight of how you can support and nourish the one you’re with.

Today we’re talking about GIVING and RECIPROCATION.

I’m highlighting 5 ways YOU can reciprocate in a relationship so you can check how well you’re doing with things you can directly control TODAY.
