The Anxious and Avoidant Attachment Styl...

About this episode

This week, Kat (@Kat.Defatta) & Megan (@Meganmoir) take a deeper look into the two organized insecure attachment styles: avoidant & anxious. You'll get a brief overview of attachment as a whole & then together they break down the ins and outs of what makes someone's attachment insecure, how it actually helped at one point, & how to move toward an earned secure attachment (Spoiler: it takes more than just listening to our podcast☺️).
