External relationships- they are the supplement, but not the source, of my happiness or my joy.
Ever wondered why your relationships follow the same troubling patterns? In this episode of the 'Recovery Rebirth Podcast', hosts Dominick Gladstone and Jillian Green dive into the intricate web of childhood experiences and their impact on our romantic lives. They explore how early attachments shape our relationship choices and behaviors, often without us even realizing it.
With a blend of personal anecdotes and psychological insights, they unravel fears of abandonment rooted in childhood traumas, such as losing parents to mental illness or death, and the ripple effects of family divorces. But it’s not all about looking back; it’s about moving forward too. Dominick and Jillian share strategies for breaking these old, destructive patterns and forming healthier connections. They discuss the delicate balance between the desire for companionship and the instinct to protect oneself from potential heartbreak.
Jillian’s fascination with attachment theory offers a fascinating lens through which to view our relationship choices, emphasizing that our early caregiver bonds play a significant role in our adult love lives. One of the most empowering shifts they propose is viewing relationships as supplements to our happiness rather than its source. By reframing how we see our connections, we can cultivate more fulfilling and balanced relationships.
Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode provides valuable insights and practical advice for anyone looking to transform their approach to love and connection.
