In this episode of Can This Be Fixed?, co-hosts Thais Gibson and Mike Di Zio delve into the nuanced dynamics of anxious and fearful avoidant attachment styles in relationships. They unpack how anxious attachments often struggle with unrealistic expectations, such as needing constant communication and validation from their partner, which can lead to feelings of insecurity and hurt. Thais and Mike also explore the fearful avoidant’s deep desire for transparency and connection, and how their need to know everything about their partner stems from a fear of losing the relationship. Through open and thoughtful discussion, they provide practical strategies for creating healthier, more secure relationships by balancing these attachment needs with understanding and communication. Tune in for an insightful conversation that offers actionable tips for transforming attachment patterns and fostering deeper connections.

Don't miss the opportunity to learn how these attachment styles can heal and transform to form more secure, fulfilling relationships. Plus, hear the hosts share their personal journeys from avoidance to secure attachment.
