- In this episode, I’m joined by attachment coaches Marta and Duncan for an open conversation about breakups, attachment, and why knowing you should move on doesn’t necessarily make it easier to do.
We talk about what keeps us emotionally attached, why some breakups are harder to recover from than others, and what may actually be happening underneath the urge to hold on, reach out, or hope they’ll come back.
This isn’t an interview. It’s three attachment coaches having an honest conversation about the psychology of letting go and what it takes to finally begin moving forward.

Support the show - We spend a lot of time asking why our partners behave the way they do.
But how often do we ask ourselves what our own childhood taught us about being an adult?
In this episode, we explore how the lessons we learned growing up shape our relationships today - from anxious and avoidant patterns to what secure attachment actually looks like in everyday life.
We'll talk about responsibility, boundaries, compassion, and why understanding someone's past doesn't mean you have to build your future around it.
If you've ever wondered why the same relationship patterns keep showing up, this conversation is for you.

Support the show - It is frustrating when a partner can't give you what you need especially after they promised or implied they could.
We try to change them - or their mind.
We hope they can change and become the person we thought they were when we first met.
We struggle with the fear of the relationship ending, lashing out with hurtful words, doing things that causes more damage - and then regretting them all when we are calm.
This episodes walks you through what you can do before the damage is done.
Breathing tips as promised in this episode -
Practice 5 minutes a day and build from there
Focus on your breathing and learn its natural rhythm before you do anything.
Intentionally breathe deeply - in and out.
Ask your doctor about box breathing exercises and if it's right for you. This is great for calming the nervous system and helping us respond with clear intentions instead of reacting.

Support the show - Today I'm answering three questions I get asked constantly. And I picked these three on purpose, because they build on each other. The first one is the controversial one: can a fearful-avoidant actually have a successful relationship WITHOUT going to therapy? People want me to say no. I'm not going to say no. But I'm also not going to give you the comfortable answer.
The second question is one almost everyone struggles with: how do I know if what I'm feeling is anxiety, or if it's a real need I should actually honor? Because those two things feel identical in your body, and most of the internet can't tell you the difference.
And the third one is personal, and a lot of you have felt it: "I feel abandoned every single time my partner goes off to a team dinner or out with friends. How do I get over this?" We're going to take that one apart together, because the real answer isn't what you think it is.
I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode.

Om Decoding Attachment Styles
I talk about the push and pull in relationships. The anxious spiraling. The person who needs to talk about everything right now and the person who would rather have the conversation sometime in 2037.I've lived some of these relationships myself. I used to be anxiously attached, and understanding my own attachment was part of how I learned to become more secure.But somewhere along the way, I became just as fascinated by the other side.Why do people do what they do?I've been asking that question for as long as I can remember.As a kid, I used to get into trouble for asking “why?” Apparently repeatedly asking adults for the reasoning behind their decisions wasn't considered charming.But I genuinely wanted to understand. Why was this expected of me? Why did people behave the way they did? Why could two people experience exactly the same situation and walk away with completely different versions of what happened?Decades later, I'm still asking those questions.I've studied psychology and attachment, read the textbooks and research, observed thousands of conversations about relationships, worked with people struggling with these patterns, and lived plenty of them myself.And one of the ways I came to understand attachment was to imagine that we were each handed a survival script.There are four broad scripts: anxious, dismissive-avoidant, fearful-avoidant and secure.The script influences what feels safe to us. What feels threatening. How much closeness we want. What we do when we're afraid. How we communicate, fight, pull away, pursue, ask for reassurance, protect our independence, set boundaries and love other people.It doesn't explain everything about a person, and attachment isn't destiny.But once you start recognizing these patterns, they're very difficult to unsee.That's what this podcast is about.I'm sharing what I've learned from psychology, research, observation, my work, and my own life - not so we can put everyone into four neat little boxes, but so we can understand each other better.And then do something useful with that understanding.Sometimes that means communicating differently. Sometimes it means setting a boundary. Sometimes it means working on yourself. Sometimes it means understanding why someone behaves the way they do without continuing to accept the behavior. And sometimes it means letting go of the outcome altogether.So if you're fascinated by attachment, or you're simply trying to understand why your partner, ex, parent, sibling, friend, or even you keep doing something that makes absolutely no sense to you...welcome.This is exactly what we're going to talk about.
