Often preoccupied attachment men think that the only possible response to a sex decreasing in frequency over a long relationship is depression and panic. This isn't the case, nor is that a healthy response when preoccupied attachment women think that their husband needs to listen to them talk for hours so that they don't get upset.

If you have anxious attachment, how do you date without overthinking, chasing, or fearing rejection?Most dating advice is designed for people playing games—“Wait three days to text back” or “Act like you don't care.” But when you're securely attached, you don't need tactics—you move with confidence, ease, and trust.In this episode, you'll learn:✅ The biggest shifts when you date as a securely attached person✅ How to stop chasing & start choosing from self-worth✅ Why secure people don't overanalyze texts or wait for validation✅ How to naturally attract commitment—without forcing it✅ A powerful client success story (from anxious to secure in 30 days!)

How does attachment security relate to codependency? The Codependent Perfectionist, Alana Carvalho, is here to explore just that!   In this episode we cover:   - How does codependency fit into the attachment system?   - Does this sound like what you're struggling with in your relationship? We're reviewing some for the most common challenges partners face when one person is more avoidant and the other is more anxious.   - Challenging perceptions of what is necessary in a relationship. When we are seeing the world through dysfunctional patterns, we are often unaware of this dysfunction.   - The differences between missatunement versus misperception and how understanding this difference can help us get on the same page on both!   - A tangible exercise you can do with your partner to help you create a stronger dynamic (and why this works to not kick up a threat response so they're more able to engage in the conversation more successfully.)   Whether you're struggling with relational patterns or looking to better understand your partner, this episode offers powerful insights and tools for cultivating healthier relationships.     LEARN MORE ABOUT ALANA: https://www.alanacarvalho.com/   TAKE THE QUIZ: https://www.alanacarvalho.com/the-codependent-perfectionist-quiz/   READ ALANA'S BOOK:

"We have to go in there and find out what the core wounds are associated with the trauma and recondition those ideas about ourselves." ~Thais Gibson  In this conversation, Jennifer Hurvitz interviews Thais Gibson, a counselor and co-founder of The Personal Development School. They discuss topics such as shadow work and attachment styles. Shadow work explores and integrates the parts of ourselves that we try to deny or hide. It involves identifying triggers and examining the root causes of our reactions. In this conversation, Thais Gibson discusses the importance of reconditioning core wounds and beliefs about oneself to heal from trauma and develop a secure attachment style. She emphasizes the need to move beyond simply blaming others for our problems and instead focus on understanding and changing our beliefs. Thais also explains the five key pillars of becoming securely attached: reconditioning core wounds, knowing and communicating our needs, setting boundaries, regulating our nervous system, and positively reinforcing good behavior. She provides practical tips for effective communication and suggests setting a timeline for personal growth and relationship change. Takeaways Core wounds are subconscious beliefs about ourselves that often stem from past experiences. Healing core wounds involves reconditioning the subconscious through repetition, emotion, and imagery. The three-step process for healing core wounds includes finding the opposite of the core wound, identifying ten memories of feeling the opposite, and recording and listening to those memories for 21 days. Reconditioning core wounds and beliefs about oneself is essential for healing from trauma and developing a secure attachment style. Blaming others for our problems is not productive; instead, we should focus on understanding and changing our beliefs. The five key pillars of becoming securely attached are reconditioning core wounds, knowing and communicating our needs, setting boundaries, regulating our nervous system, and positively reinforcing good behavior. Effective communication involves positive framing, clearly showing what we need, seeing our needs through, and positively reinforcing good behavior. Setting a timeline for personal growth and relationship change can help determine if the other person is willing to do the work and make a positive difference. 00:00 Introduction of Thais Gibson 08:26 Exploring Shadow Work 19:09 Understanding and Healing Core Wounds 23:23 Reconditioning the Subconscious Mind 29:22 The Five Key Pillars of Becoming Securely Attached 36:59 Knowing and Communicating Our Needs 39:27 Setting a Timeline for Personal Growth and Change   Find Thais Gibson here: https://attachment.personaldevelopmentschool.com/quiz?utm_source=google-search&utm_medium=cpc-lead&utm_campaign=18002521894&utm_term=&gc_id=18002521894&h_ad_id=627022430545&utm_content=thais%20gibson&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwmOm3BhC8ARIsAOSbapVXHyvN9RJxNmNtZEIzdKCU-ep6KM8Mum1CvfK7kL7XvGK1kGRfSqYaAirBEALw_wcB Doing Relationships Right hits the pages of VOGUE MAGAZINE- check it out!  Please grab a copy of Midlife Priceless wherever you find your books! jenniferhurvitz.com Here's the link to my Online Dating Course: DOING DATING RIGHT!    Where to find me: Website: https://jenniferhurvitz.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jenniferhurvitzbiz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/doingrelationshipsright/ Youtube: CLICK HERE ♥️ TikTok: CLICK HERE!

We all know how important it is to raise securely attached kids, but how to do it can be the tricky part!  It's true what they say about parenting: The days are long but the years are short. I feel like the years are flying by with my two kids, who are both now in double digits, and I often find myself wondering how I can parent them in a way that will keep our bonds strong through their teen years and into adulthood - and in a way that they will thrive in their adult relationships after they leave my care. This is why I've been drawn to the work of therapist and author Eli Harwood, who has dedicated her career to studying research on attachment theory and making it applicable to everyday humans trying to build secure relationships, whether that's the clients in her private practice, the hundreds of thousands who follow her on social media, or the people across the world who read her books.   Eli's newest book, Raising Securely Attached Kids, will be released on September 3, 2024, and it was a thrill to have her back on the podcast to discuss this important topic.  For full show notes, including takeaways, click here. *** Announcements: Sign up for my FREE masterclass to learn all about rerouting your mom rage!

Are you struggling to maintain a strong connection with your teen as they navigate the complex emotions of adolescence? Do you find yourself caught between managing their daily tasks and truly engaging with them on a deeper level? In this episode of the Power Your Parenting Moms of Teens Podcast, host Colleen O'Grady sits down with licensed therapist Eli Harwood to discuss the transformative power of connection-focused parenting. Harwood, who has spent two decades studying attachment, shares her insights on how building secure attachments with teens can foster confidence, empathy, and resilience. The conversation delves into the importance of attunement, co-regulation, and the shift from being a safe haven to a secure base as teens grow. Harwood emphasizes the critical role of maintaining an authentic connection with teens, even as they begin to turn to their peers for support. ELI HARWOOD is a licensed therapist who lives in Colorado with her husband, Trevor, and their three children. Eli has been nerding out on attachment research for the past two decades and is on a mission to help make the world a better place, one relationship at a time. She continues this mission in her clinical work, her writing, and running her mouth about attachment on social media. When she isn't working to make the world a more secure place, she is playing dress-up with her kids, obsessing about her sourdough starter, and reminiscing about that one time she won a set of globes as a Price is Right contestant. Key Takeaways: Connection-focused parenting is essential for fostering a teen's emotional and mental health. By prioritizing connection over control, parents can help their teens feel seen, heard, and supported, which in turn strengthens their resilience and self-esteem. Harwood stresses the importance of showing up consistently for both the tender and triumphant moments in a teen's life and encourages moms to focus on "lighting up" when their child enters the room, listening actively, and being quick to repair any relational ruptures. As teens grow, they naturally begin to rely more on their peers, but maintaining a secure attachment with their parents remains crucial for their overall well-being.

Eli Harwood, author of Raising Securely Attached Kids, dives into connection-focused parenting, exploring how parents can maintain strong bonds with teens, even as they become more independent.If you've enjoyed Talking to Teens, we'd love if you could leave us a five-star rating, and if you have time, a review! Full Show NotesParenting teens can be incredibly rewarding, but it's also a time fraught with challenges and rapid changes. Just when you think you've got a strong connection, everything can start spiraling out of control seemingly overnight. Emotional outbursts can replace casual conversations, and mutual understanding can feel like a distant memory. So, how can parents keep their relationship with their teens strong and resilient during these tumultuous years?One key to maintaining this bond lies in understanding the science of attachment, a concept that is critical not just during infancy but throughout childhood and adolescence. Teens are transitioning, sharing more attachment needs with peers, and carving out their own identities. How can parents navigate this landscape without losing their pivotal role in their children's lives?To unravel these questions, we turn to expert Eli Harwood, a therapist, writer, and the force behind the online community Attachment Nerd. Eli is the author of Raising Securely Attached Kids, a must-read for parents eager to foster secure bonds with their children. Eli brings her own experience of overcoming an insecure attachment and turning it into a lifelong mission to help other families.The Science of Teen AttachmentEli enlightens us about attachment, the instinctive drive we all have to form close relationships. While young children rely mostly on their parents for attachment needs, teenagers start to transfer these needs to friends and romantic partners. This shift can be emotionally taxing for parents as they feel their central role diminishing. However, Eli reassures us that while teens seek independence, the parental bond remains crucial, especially in moments of high distress.Mastering Emotional RegulationThe teenage years are a roller coaster of emotions, and as Eli explains, parents must be the grounded, stable force. She emphasizes the necessity of responding to teenagers' changing emotional landscapes with maturity and empathy. Eli offers strategies for parents to practice emotional management, which involves recognizing and naming emotions accurately—a skill termed as alexithymia when absent. By modeling and encouraging a rich emotional vocabulary, parents can significantly improve their teens' ability to navigate their own feelings and form healthy relationships.Consulting, Not ControllingEli introduces the concept of parents becoming "consultants" rather than controllers. Teens are more likely to seek advice and support from parents who respond maturely to their growing independence. It's important for parents to calm their fearful, possessive instincts and reposition themselves as sources of wisdom and encouragement. When teens trust that their parents are secure in their roles and non-threatening, they are more likely to maintain open lines of communication.Addressing Problematic BehaviorsWhen it comes to problematic behaviors such as lying or substance use, Eli advises a balanced approach of boundaries without punishment. Drawing a clear line between setting boundaries for safety and punitive measures, she champions an approach based on empathy, understanding, and mature dialogue. Eli's emphasis here is on understanding the underlying emotional turmoil causing such behaviors and addressing that rather than solely focusing on behavioral correction.Fostering Gratitude and EmpathyAnother important aspect Eli discusses is the practice of empathy math—giving empathy to elicit empathy. She tackles the common parental concern of their teens being ungrateful or selfish, explaining that these traits are a normal part of the developmental stage. Instead of expecting gratitude, parents should model it. Showing appreciation for the little moments can inspire teens to mirror this behavior.In the Episode…Eli's insights bring a refreshing perspective on readjusting our parenting strategies for the teen years. Her advice is practical, compassionate, and grounded in psychological research.

In this episode, we sat down with Adam Lane Smith to discuss attachment theory. Adam shares how to identify your attachment style, how to foster a secure attachment with your own children, and how to apply those learnings to all of your relationships. TakeawaysAttachment theory focuses on the formation of healthy, loving, and collaborative relationships.There are three main attachment styles: secure, avoidant, and anxious.Attachment issues can be formed in childhood due to various factors, such as lack of bonding with parents or traumatic experiences.Birth experiences may impact attachment formation, but it is possible to improve attachment styles through explicit love and nurturing.Bonding hormones, such as oxytocin, GABA, vasopressin, and serotonin, play a crucial role in attachment and can be influenced by positive experiences.Collaboration and asking questions are essential tools for parents to create secure attachment with their children.Divorce can have a significant impact on attachment styles, and it is crucial to provide context and foster oxytocin bonding with adopted children.Couples with different attachment styles can improve their relationship by being explicit about their needs, fostering collaboration, and building a marriage agreement.The breakdown of the family structure over the past century has led to challenges in attachment and relationship dynamics.Providing a safe and nurturing environment is key to developing secure attachment in both parent-child and couple relationships. Solving problems together in a relationship opens up oxytocin receptors and fosters intimacy and connection.Avoidant attachment style is characterized by a wall up, lack of trust, and an emphasis on survival. Anxious attachment style is characterized by a fear of abandonment and a focus on pleasing others.Enmeshment is a form of insecure attachment where boundaries are poor and caretaking becomes the responsibility of the child.Secure attachment involves open and explicit communication, clear boundaries, and a focus on generosity and adjusting for reality.Attachment styles can vary in different relationships and situations, but fostering secure attachment at home is crucial for healthy relationships outside the home.Nature and genetics may play a role in attachment, but it is the parent's job to nurture and guide their child towards secure attachment.Building a self-correcting family system where open communication and resolution of issues is encouraged is more important than striving for perfection as a parent.Find Adam Lane Smith HERE.

Today's conversation will help you understand the importance of attachment theory and how this influences the outcome in our relationships. Within this conversation you will learn what these attachment styles are and how each one uniquely influences how we react in a relationship. Then how can we learn a new way of attaching and moving into secure attachment.  My guest is Charisse Cooke is an attachment-based psychotherapist and author with over twenty years experience in relationship dynamics. She is also an online educator with a mission to mend the fabric of relationships through understanding and emotional resilience. Charisse's approach to therapy is deeply rooted in adult attachment theory, offering a compassionate lens through which to view and transform one's relational universe.  Charisse discusses attachment theory and its importance in understanding our attachment style.
