Attachment Styles, Emotional Healing, and Being a Secure Lover in Marriage
Episode 279
If you've ever felt not good enough, feared rejection, or found yourself reacting in ways you don't even understand, this episode is for you. Marriage & family therapist Trevor (Art of Healing by Trevor) explains why so many couples get stuck in cycles of pursuit, shutdown, anxiety, and disconnection — and the emotional transformation required to break free. This conversation is raw, restorative, and deeply practical.
In this episode you'll learn:
-
Why fear of abandonment and "I'm not enough" beliefs show up in marriage
-
The two classic patterns: people-pleasing pursuer + shut-down withdrawer
-
How emotional safety outside the bedroom changes intimacy inside it
-
How to work with your inner child to create real healing
-
A step-by-step framework for emotional transformation
-
How secure partners show up differently in sex, connection, and conflict
-
Why awareness alone isn't enough — and what actually creates change
