This episode of Girl Stop Playin features a special guest, Dr. Brittany Woodard-Hampton, an experienced acupuncture doctor who brings a wealth of knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine.

Dr. Brittany explains the basics of acupuncture, describing it as a method of using needles to help the body heal itself by maintaining a balanced flow of energy, or "chi." She emphasizes the holistic approach of Chinese medicine, which views the body, mind, and spirit as interconnected. This philosophy contrasts with Western medicine, which often focuses on diagnosing and treating specific diseases with medications.

You'll learn about the diagnostic tests used in Chinese medicine, such as examining the ear for signs of imbalance and pressing on the belly to assess the health of different channels in the body. Dr. Brittany describes how these non-invasive tests help her determine the best treatment plan for each patient.

On this episode of Girl Stop Playin, I'm introducing you to Taylor Chandler, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Health Coach, and Transformational Leadership Coach. Taylor delves into the origins and significance of attachment styles, explaining how our early relationships with caregivers shape our attachment behaviors in adulthood. She outlines the four primary attachment styles: secure, anxious preoccupied, dismissive avoidant, and fearful-avoidant, providing insightful examples of each.

We're discussing the impact of attachment styles on personal and professional relationships, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness. Taylor explains that understanding one's attachment style can lead to healthier relationships and improved emotional well-being. She highlights the concept of attachment flexibility, reassuring listeners that it is possible to change and develop a more secure attachment style through intentional self-work and accountability.

The conversation also touches on the connection between emotional health and physical health. Taylor explains how unresolved emotional issues can manifest in physical symptoms, encouraging a holistic approach to wellness.
