Episode 87 - Managing Attachment Styles: Secure, Anxious, & Avoidant With Julie Mennano

In this episode of The Feeling Lighter podcast, hosts Katie and Dr. Lisa speak with Julie Menanno, a licensed marriage and family therapist and author of the book "Secure Love." We discuss attachment theory and how the different attachment styles of avoidant, anxious, and secure play out in romantic relationships. Menanno shares insights from her work helping couples develop more secure attachments with themselves and each other through increasing emotional awareness, self-regulation, and vulnerable communication. The conversation also covers applying these principles to parenting and making space for children's emotions. Menanno offers a valuable framework for creating healthy, secure bonds and approaching life's challenges from a grounded, emotionally intelligent place.
