insecurities in relationships

Alex Adams
About this episode
Insecurities are within all of us. Whether you show it by asking for reassurance or needing space - we all have a small (or big) part of ourselves that don't feel 100% safe at all times, and that's okay! Today we talk about where insecurities & insecure attachments stem from, what these insecurities mean and how we can take the steps to heal. Sometimes, we play into our own suffering by believing our only option is to be insecure and go to our partners for security - but, it is very possible to heal along side you partner, independently, and cultivate a healthy attachment to them. I love you all, enjoy.
