Join Sarah Baldwin and me for an insightful journey into the heart of attachment theory and its vital connection with our nervous systems — revealing how our early bonds profoundly shape our adult relationships. With warmth and clarity, Sarah unpacks how attachment styles — secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized — guide our behaviors in closeness, conflict, and communication. She shares that while our nervous systems respond to these deep-rooted patterns, understanding them can lead to healing, resilience, and more balanced connections. From co-regulation to practical strategies for fostering self-awareness, Sarah provides valuable steps toward rewiring our attachment responses and forming more authentic bonds. This conversation empowers us all to explore our emotional landscapes, consider the effects of societal norms on connection, and cultivate the relationships we truly desire.
