<div>In today’s episode, I sit down with <strong>Marc Cameron,</strong> a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist<strong>, </strong>to explore one of the most influential (and often overlooked) elements of our emotional lives: <strong>attachment styles</strong>. Drawing from more than <strong>80 years of research</strong>, Marc breaks down how our earliest experiences with our families shape the way we connect, communicate, handle conflict, and relate to the people closest to us well into adulthood.

This episode offers a compassionate and scientifically grounded roadmap for understanding yourself and the people you love. Whether you identify as avoidant, anxious, vacillating, disorganized, or relatively secure, you'll walk away with clarity, validation, and practical tools for building healthier patterns of connection. Here is some of what we cover: 


</div>
<ul>
<li>Why attachment styles are not personality traits, but <strong>relational survival strategies</strong> formed early in life</li>
<li>Why “secure” doesn’t mean perfect; it means the relationship feels predictable and safe most of the time</li>
<li>How attachment ruptures can be healed in adulthood through awareness and practice</li>
<li>Why the holidays amplify attachment triggers—family roles, old wounds and unresolved expectations</li>
<li>How to move toward secure attachment by learning emotional language, practicing repair, and using the comfort circle </li>
</ul>
