Episode Details

Ever feel torn between wanting closeness and needing space? In this episode of Speak Honest, We dive into the complexities of disorganized attachment, or what I call “The Pendulum Swing Dance.” Through real-life examples and compassionate insights, we will unpack why disorganized attachment leads to a push-pull dynamic in relationships, where closeness feels both desirable and frightening. Discover how this attachment style develops, how it impacts adult relationships, and practical steps for creating stability in your connections.
