Six of the most important psychologists in history looked at that logic — and they all said the same thing.You're wrong.In this episode, I break down exactly what Winnicott, Rogers, Bowlby, Ainsworth, Jung, and Freud all concluded about healing and relationships. Six frameworks. Six eras. One unanimous answer: healing doesn't happen before relationships. It happens inside them.The strategy you're calling "self-awareness"? They'd call it avoidance.

Consider whether your company's biggest growth barrier lies not in the market, product, or competitors, but in your unconscious relationship with money. In this episode of Predictable B2B Success, we discuss this perspective with Douglas Lynam, a former Benedictine monk, financial advisor, and acclaimed author. Douglas shares insights from his journey, moving from a vow of poverty to managing over $250 million in assets. He explains how psychological money patterns, often formed before age ten, can influence even data-driven leaders. Douglas also discusses the Enneagram personality system and its impact on financial decisions, executive team dynamics, and revenue planning. Listeners will learn how early experiences influence leadership styles, how personality differences can cause recurring friction in budget meetings, and why addressing personal “money wounds” is essential for building healthy cultures and sustainable growth. Douglas also provides practical contemplative practices that leaders can use daily to address hidden financial challenges and improve decision-making under pressure. Whether you rely on analytics or face challenges with pricing, this episode offers new perspectives on approaching money and achieving business success. Some topics we explore in this episode include: Top 10 Topics Covered in This Episode Unconscious Money Patterns in Leadership: How early money beliefs influence executive decisions and revenue growth.Enneagram Personality Types and Finance: Using the Enneagram to decode financial behaviors and team dynamics.Emotional vs. Data-Driven Decisions: The tension between analytical processes and hidden emotional drivers.Attachment Theory of Money: Money anxiety and avoidance are linked to deeper psychological patterns.Team Personality Conflicts in Budgeting: Predictable clashes between executive types during financial planning.Overcoming Financial Trauma: Healing early money wounds to prevent cultural sabotage.Practical Contemplative Practices: Simple reflection tools (journaling, gratitude) for busy CEOs.Ethics and Business Growth: Balancing integrity with aggressive growth targets.Scarcity vs. Abundance Mindset: Moving from scarcity-driven to abundance-based revenue strategies.Building Transformational Content: Creating educational material that resonates with deep psychological needs.

In this episode, psychotherapist and Jungian analyst Gary Trosclair explores the hidden connection between compulsive personality types and codependent relationship patterns. Drawing on  attachment theory and Jungian psychology, Gary breaks down how the four compulsive types — the Mentor-Boss, the People-Pleaser, the Workaholic, and the Overthinker — each fall into codependent relationships  in their own distinct ways. You'll learn how popular culture romanticizes dependency, how your attachment style shapes your relationship habits, and why interdependence  — not codependence — is the healthier model for lasting love.

In this episode, we shine a spotlight on the Pears Family School, a pioneering Alternative Provision school in the UK that is redefining how we support children with complex emotional, behavioral, and mental health needs. Facing a national crisis in child mental health and a lack of joined-up services, the Pears Family School bridges the gap between education and mental health through a unique, systemic, and family-focused approach.We are joined by Laura Lower and Maya Bell Kohli as we discover how the school's founders, both experienced teachers and systemic family therapists, created a model that integrates therapeutic and educational practices. We'll explore the origins of their innovative multi-family classroom, the five bridging themes that guide every aspect of school life—Active Warmth, Respectful Curiosity, Hopeful Motivation, Supportive Challenge, and Engendered Trust—and the theoretical foundations that underpin their work, from Attachment Theory to Mentalization.Hear how all staff, not just therapists, are trained in mental health principles, enabling them to make informed interventions throughout the school day. Learn about the school's commitment to involving parents and carers in every step, from classroom activities to group discussions, building trust and solidarity among families who have often felt excluded or blamed.Maya and Laura share real stories of transformation, discuss the challenges of working with children at risk of exclusion, and examine how the Pears Family School helps students recover, regain confidence, and transition successfully back to mainstream education. Whether you're an educator, mental health professional, or advocate for vulnerable children, this episode offers practical insights and inspiration for anyone interested in systemic change and holistic support for families.Laura is a family and systemic psychotherapist and supervisor with extensive experience in therapeutic education and safeguarding.

Grief is an inevitable part of pre-hospital care, yet it remains one of the most complex and challenging aspects of our work. In this compilation episode, we bring together three powerful conversations exploring grief, bereavement, loss, and the role healthcare professionals play in supporting patients, families, and themselves during some of life's most difficult moments.We begin with renowned psychotherapist and author Julia Samuel, who shares insights from more than three decades of working with bereaved families. Alongside Caroline Phillips, Julia explores the process of grief and bereavement, the skills required for breaking bad news, the impact of repeated exposure to loss on healthcare professionals, and practical approaches to building resilience in emotionally demanding roles.The episode then turns to a two-part conversation with grief specialist Liz Gleeson. In Part 1, we explore key theories and frameworks for understanding grief, including Attachment Theory, Continuing Bonds, the Dual Process Model, and Kübler-Ross's Five Stages of Grief. Liz discusses the importance of presence, listening, cultural awareness, and compassionate care, while also examining the emotional toll that supporting grieving individuals can have on clinicians.In Part 2, we take a deeper look at the many forms grief can take beyond bereavement. Together, we explore anticipatory grief, perinatal loss, suicide bereavement, parental and sibling grief, losses associated with ageing, and the often-overlooked impact of divorce, separation, and family estrangement. We also discuss disenfranchised grief and how recognising these experiences can help pre-hospital professionals provide more sensitive, informed, and person-centred care.Whether you are supporting families through sudden loss, caring for patients facing life-limiting illness, or reflecting on your own experiences of grief and exposure to trauma, this compilation offers practical insights, evidence-informed perspectives, and compassionate guidance for navigating one of the most universal aspects of human experience.Guests:Julia Samuel MBE – Psychotherapist, Founder Patron of Child Bereavement UK, and author of Grief Works and This Too Shall Pass.Liz Gleeson – Creator of the Shapes of Grief podcast and internationally recognised grief educator and therapist.This episode is essential listening for anyone working in pre-hospital, emergency, critical care, or healthcare environments where grief and loss are encountered as part of everyday practice.This episode is sponsored by PAX: The gold standard in emergency response bags.When you're working under pressure, your kit needs to be dependable, tough, and intuitive.

In this deep dive episode, I explore how secure attachment evolves across development and what children are really needing from us emotionally at each stage of childhood and adolescence. Using Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development as a framework, we look at the core emotional tasks kids are navigating from infancy through young adulthood, and how our role as parents shifts alongside them.   Together, we explore:   - What secure attachment looks like at different developmental stages. - How to stay connected to your child as their needs evolve over time. - Why toddlers push for independence and what they need from us in those moments. - How play, boredom, and curiosity support emotional development in early childhood - Why school-age kids become more focused on achievement, perfectionism, and peer comparison. - How social media can intensify insecurity during key developmental windows. - Why adolescence can suddenly feel so emotionally intense and unpredictable. - How to stay a secure base for your teen without escalating power struggles. - What today's loneliness epidemic can teach us about raising emotionally connected kids. - Why repair matters more than perfection in secure relationships. - How understanding your child's developmental task can completely shift the way you respond to behavior.   This episode is ultimately about learning to zoom out. Not to parent each stage perfectly, but to better understand what your child is actually working through underneath the behaviors, emotions, and developmental shifts that can sometimes leave us feeling confused or disconnected. Because when we understand the developmental needs driving our child's behavior, we can respond with more clarity, compassion, and connection.     LEARN MORE ABOUT ME:

In this conversation with Richard Beck, author of The Book of Love, we explore what it actually means to read Scripture through the hermeneutic of love. Richard helps us see that we have to reckon with our attachment to God - whether we actually believe he's for us - because that fear or security shapes everything about how we read. We get into the violent texts of the Old Testament, why both conservatives and progressives have their own blind spots, how the Bible raises hard questions, and what seeing the cross through a hermeneutic of love looks like.Richard Beck is professor of psychology at Abilene Christian University in Abilene, Texas, where he also lives. He is a popular blogger and speaker and the author of several books, most recently The Shape of Joy and The Book of Love. His published research also covers topics as diverse as the psychology of profanity and why Christian bookstore art is so bad.

Knowing your attachment style is not the finish line, y'all, it's the starting line. I have a doctorate in clinical psychology and I knew attachment theory inside and out, and I still couldn't attract a healthy relationship until I did the deeper work underneath it.In this episode, I'm getting honest about why so many of you have read all the books, taken all the quizzes, listened to 300 episodes of this podcast and still feel stuck in the same painful patterns. The missing piece is your unconscious relationship belief system. These are the sneaky, below-the-surface beliefs that decide who you're attracted to, what you tolerate, and why secure love can feel "boring" while chaos feels like chemistry. I'm walking you through the most common limiting beliefs I see (love must be earned, inconsistency equals attraction, I have to over-give to be chosen, people always leave me, I'm not enough, I'm too much), why your brain files them away as truth, and the real work it takes to rewire them.Inside the episode:Why attachment theory awareness without belief-level rewiring can actually leave you in more pain, not lessThe "is this serving you?" framework I use with clients to excavate the beliefs running your love life behind the scenesWhy your "type" isn't really your type, it's your unhealed belief system choosing your partners for youIf this episode lit something up in you, your next step is here.

What if the patterns in your relationships are not just about communication, compatibility, or choosing the wrong person, but subconscious wounds your nervous system learned years ago? In this episode, Dr. Taz sits down with Thais Gibson, PhD, bestselling author, counselor, speaker, attachment theory expert, and founder of The Personal Development School, to explore how attachment styles, childhood conditioning, core wounds, subconscious programming, and nervous system regulation shape the way we love, fight, connect, and pull away.In this episode, Thais explains why the conscious mind often cannot overpower the subconscious mind, and why so many people keep repeating the same relationship patterns even when they know better. She breaks down the four attachment styles: secure, anxious, dismissive avoidant, and fearful avoidant, and explains how each style can show up in adult relationships, dating, marriage, family dynamics, conflict, ghosting, love bombing, emotional shutdown, clinginess, and the painful push-pull cycle.Dr. Taz and Thais discuss why affirmations may not be enough to heal deep core wounds, why the subconscious mind responds more to emotion and imagery than language, and how childhood experiences can become the lens through which we interpret adult relationships. Thais also shares a practical 21-day rewiring exercise using memory, emotion, visualization, and repetition to help shift core wounds like abandonment, betrayal, shame, unworthiness, and fear of being trapped.If you're listening to this and thinking, “I know something is off in my body, but I don't know where to start,” join the Circle here:

Every leader thinks they’re in the product business…the profit business…the performance business… They’re not. They’re in the people business. On this episode of Like It Matters Radio, Mr. Black breaks down the core truth behind every organization, team, and outcome:people are the cause—everything else is the effect. The greatest expense? People.The greatest reward? People.The greatest potential—and the greatest problems? People. This episode challenges leaders to stop managing results and start developing humans. Because when you build better people, everything else rises with it—culture, performance, relationships, and long-term success. Mr. Black introduces the CARE Framework, a practical system for leading in the people business: Cultivate Potential – Develop strengths, not just assign tasks Align Hearts & Purpose – Connect people to something that matters Restore & Reinforce Culture – Protect the emotional environment Empower Ownership – Trust people to lead, not just follow This isn’t soft leadership.It’s how high-performing teams are actually built. You’ll also uncover how people are formed: Early life experiences shape their map of reality Hebb’s Law wires repeated experiences into patterns Social Learning Theory shows we become what we see Attachment Theory defines how we trust and connect Mimetic Theory reveals we desire what others model Which means this: People aren’t broken.They’re programmed. And leaders who understand that don’t just fix problems—they rebuild people from the inside out. Because when people feel cared for, they commit.When they commit, they engage.When they engage, performance follows. So the real question is: Are you using people…or are you building them? This is an Hour of Power for leaders ready to stop chasing outcomes and start leading what actually drives them. Inspiration. Education.

Many people assume chemistry means compatibility, but neuroscience and Attachment Theory show that what feels magnetic isn't always healthy. Depending on your Attachment Style, chemistry can feel like urgency, emotional intensity, novelty, or even chaos. Understanding these patterns can help you stop chasing familiar but unhealthy dynamics and start choosing relationships that are truly compatible. Episode Summary In this episode, Thais Gibson explains the science behind what attracts each Attachment Style and why the chemistry you feel with someone may actually be your nervous system responding to familiar patterns. You'll learn how Anxious Attachment, Dismissive Avoidant, and Fearful Avoidant Attachment Styles experience attraction differently and how subconscious programming and nervous system conditioning influence who you feel drawn to. Thais also breaks down why “wrong chemistry” can feel so right, and how healing your Attachment Style can change what you're naturally attracted to in relationships. Key Takeaways ✔️ Anxious Attachment often experiences chemistry as urgency and emotional intensity ✔️ Unpredictability can increase attraction through dopamine and cortisol spikes ✔️ Dismissive Avoidant individuals may withdraw when vulnerability increases ✔️ Protecting independence often drives Avoidant attraction patterns ✔️ Fearful Avoidant chemistry can feel intense due to push-pull dynamics ✔️ Familiar emotional chaos can be mistaken for compatibility ✔️ Healing your Attachment Style helps you choose healthier partners Meet the Host Thais Gibson is the founder of The Personal Development School and a world leader in attachment theory.

Aubrie Sellers: Attachment Theory, Honest Songs, and Doing It Her Way

About the EpisodeOn this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with singer and songwriter Aubrie Sellers for a conversation about her remarkable new album Attachment Theory, and the deeper creative world she built around it. I had already been listening to the record ahead of our talk, and what struck me immediately was how singular it feels: cinematic, emotionally sharp, and sonically timeless in a way that somehow feels both old and futuristic at once.We talk about how Attachment Theory became a true concept record. Aubrie explains that she did not start with a concept and then write toward it. Instead, the songs gradually revealed a shared emotional center, all circling relationship patterns, vulnerability, and the psychology of connection. That realization eventually led to one of the most interesting parts of the project: a companion podcast, with one episode tied to each song, exploring attachment theory and relationship dynamics in a more direct and concrete way.One of my favorite parts of this conversation is hearing Aubrie talk honestly about performance anxiety, introversion, and learning how to shape a music career around who she actually is as a person. She shares how severe stage fright marked her early touring years, how working on her general anxiety changed things more than simple repetition ever did, and how she has become more intentional about saying yes only to the kinds of opportunities that actually fit her life and temperament.We also dig into the sound of the record, her longtime collaboration with Ethan Ballinger, the atmospheric textures and vocal treatments, the  influence that shows up in places, and why the album feels so cinematic. Aubrie talks about the value of leaving room for experimentation in the studio, letting musicians bring their own voice into the process, and making something polished without sanding off all the soul.Along the way, we also talk about Nashville, bluegrass, rawness in music, social media, and the freedom that comes from creating on your own terms. This is a thoughtful conversation about identity, vulnerability, artistry, and building a creative life that feels honest.Key TakeawaysAttachment Theory grew into a concept record naturally — the songs revealed a shared emotional thread before the full concept came into focus.The companion podcast adds another layer — each episode expands on the emotional themes of a song through relationship psychology and personal reflection.Introversion and artistry can coexist — Aubrie has worked to build a career structure that actually fits who she is.Performance anxiety does not always disappear on its own — mindset and emotional work can matter as much as experience.A polished record can still feel raw — the goal is clarity and atmosphere without losing soul or imperfection.Social media can be used with intention — Aubrie has found ways to connect authentically without treating it as empty content churn.Honesty is the through line — whether it is country, bluegrass, rock, or something in between, the music that moves her comes from a real place.Music from the EpisodeSubatomic - Aubrie SellersTrigger Happy - Aubrie SellersDelusional - Aubrie SellersLittle Rooms - Aubrie SellersAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast hosted by Brad Williams, featuring conversations with musicians, composers, producers, and creative thinkers about their musical journeys.

What if the way you relate to others isn't fixed—but fundamentally changeable? In this episode, we speak with psychiatrist and neuroscientist Amir Levine, who is an Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center. He's the author of the best-selling book Attached, which examined how people's attachment styles—from secure to anxious to avoidant. In his new book, Secure: The Revolutionary Guide to Creating a Secure Life, Levine argues that attachment styles aren't lifelong labels but actually patterns the brain can relearn. He explores the emerging science of “earned security”—how relationships reshape our neural wiring, why some people feel safe under pressure while others spiral, and what it takes to move from insecurity to stability.

Popular "Garage County" singer-songwriter Aubrie Sellers joins Music Matters host Darrell Craig Harris for a fun episode talking about her new singer and her new album "Attachment Theory" in this new episode! About Aubrie Sellers  "I feel like I'm film in a digital world," says 27-year-old singer-songwriter Aubrie Sellers. "There are so many slick, clean-sounding records that are designed for quick consumption, but that's not me. I make dirty, grungy-sounding records, and the emotions spill all over the place. They're messy at times, but I find beauty in that." For anybody who's ever felt as if they didn't quite fit in, Sellers' masterful second album, Far From Home, the follow-up to her sensational debut, New City Blues, is essential listening. Sonically, it's a sweeping, epic vision made manifest in crushing, amp-busting guitar rock - Sellers once dubbed this sound "garage country" - and delicate yet shattering widescreen ballads that form compelling frameworks for her angelic voice to take flight. One might assume that such fulsome musical expressions could only come from a grand extrovert, but Sellers reveals the deep-seated anxieties that lie beneath the surface - and how writing the album proved cathartic.
