#39: Attachment Styles with Maya Diamond

BREAK UP BESTIE
About this episode

Today I interviewed Maya Diamond who is an expert on attachment styles and how our attachment style affects who we attract, how we behave in relationships, and how our attachment style can affect our feelings about our break up. Attachment styles were key for me in being able to attract my pattern of going after emotionally unavailable partners (aka avoidants). We also go over how to figure out your style, how our styles can change, how to move towards secure attachment, and more!
