A few years ago, Jessica Baum reached out to me because she was in a dark place. She wanted to write a book, but felt frustrated by the process and lacked confidence in bringing the book to life. We worked together through my author mentorship/ life coach program to help secure her dream literary agent and an amazing book deal with her dream publisher. Flash-forward to today, her new book Anxiously Attached: Becoming More Secure in Life and Love is out in the world.
Jessica Baum is the founder of the Relationship Institute of Palm Beach, providing couples therapy, family counseling, and addiction therapy. She’s a certified Imago therapist and has extensive training in psychodrama and experiential therapy and has done a copious amount of work with trauma. Today on the Awakened & Aligned podcast, we talk details on how to become more secure in life and love by understanding attachment styles.
In order to improve closeness and intimacy in all relationships, it is important to first understand the clear parallels between adult behavior and childhood experiences. Attachment Theory combines traditional teachings with knowledge of subconscious patterns to provide powerful tools for powerful change.
An estimated 47 million Americans identify as having an anxious attachment style, which can make being in relationships turbulent and emotionally taxing for them. According to groundbreaking research in the field of attachment, anxious types are more prone to insecurity, jealousy, codependency, and other behaviors that get in the way of finding and sustaining love. In today’s episode, Jessica guides us through an understanding of the attachment styles and why it is important to cultivate self-awareness, inner strength and self-love, which will lead to more secure and satisfying relationships.
Together we talk about how you can:
- Build powerful current and future relationships by understanding your past
- Discover and understand adult attachment styles—and how they can help you heal subconscious patterns
- Gain a clear understanding of how your nervous system is subconsciously influencing your relationships
- Learn the true meaning of a healthy interdependent relationship and how to establish one with your current or future partner
- Break free from comparing yourself and your life to others—and how comparison is an illusion keeping you trapped in fear of failure, plus tips for how to break free
- Why it is essential to invest in healing and create a supportive network of warm, nonjudgmental friends
- Learn the true meaning of a healthy interdependent relationship and how self-love plays the most important role
