Do you put too much value in the opinion of others? Can a hurtful comment make you spiral about what is wrong with you? When we struggle with emotional connections, it’s often due to a lack of emotional connection in our childhood. And pretty much all humans can relate in some way.
I’m ranting (this topic fires me up) about what avoidant attachment is, how important it is to build up your emotional maturity, and how I have put in the work to work on my attachment issues and create healthier relationships.
Today is the first episode in a new series on emotional maturity. I hope you’ll continue to tune in and learn about how emotional immaturity can show up in your life, and how to turn it around to build healthy connections.
What you’ll find in this episode:
The importance of being mindful of how we allow others to make us feel
How I learned that I have avoidant attachment issues, and how they show up for me
What I have learned about emotional intimacy and maturity and how I have put in the work to have healthier emotional relationships
How people who struggle with emotional connection feel uncomfortable processing their own feelings (and their kids’ feelings)
How children of emotionally immature parents grow up to attract emotionally immature partners if they don’t do the work to heal their generational trauma
