Are you curious about how your childhood experiences shape your adult relationships? In this episode of Practical Growth: A Self-Recovery Podcast, E.B. Johnson dives into the fascinating world of attachment styles and their profound impact on our romantic and personal connections. With her expertise as a Master Practitioner of NLP and a popular TikTok coach, E.B. breaks down the different types of attachment styles – secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganised – and how they influence our behaviours in relationships. E.B.
shares insightful stories and real-life examples to illustrate how these attachment styles manifest in everyday interactions. From the clingy tendencies of anxious attachment to the emotional distance of avoidant types, she explains the psychological roots of these behaviours and offers practical advice on how to recognise and address them. The episode also delves into the history of attachment theory, highlighting the pioneering work of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth.
Their research on the bonds between children and their caregivers laid the groundwork for understanding how early experiences shape our adult relationships. Listeners will find relatable anecdotes, such as the story of Elsie, whose anxious attachment style led to tumultuous relationships until she began to understand and work on her patterns. E.B. emphasises that while changing these ingrained behaviours can be challenging, it is entirely possible with dedication and self-awareness.
Whether you're looking to improve your current relationship or gain a deeper understanding of yourself, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable steps to foster healthier connections. Tune in to explore how recognising and working on your attachment style can transform your relationships for the better.
