Have you ever pushed away the love you wanted most or clung to it so tightly that you lost yourself in the process? Jay sits down with Attachment Style expert and creator of the Integrated Attachment Theory Thais Gibson to unpack one of the most powerful forces shaping our relationships. Together, they explore how our earliest emotional experiences quietly shape the way we love, communicate, and respond to conflict later in adulthood. Thais explains how anxious, avoidant, and fearful-avoidant patterns aren&rsquo;t flaws or labels that define us, but protective mechanisms we once needed to feel safe. Jay and Thais dive into the subtle ways attachment wounds show up in dating and long-term relationships, from overthinking a delayed text, to fearing commitment when things start to get too serious. Thais shares practical tools for recognizing your subconscious needs, reprogramming limiting beliefs, and communicating in ways that build security instead of sabotaging connection. Jay highlights how healing isn&rsquo;t about changing who you are, it&rsquo;s about understanding why you are the way you are, and consciously choosing new patterns that align with the love you truly desire. They emphasize that compatibility alone isn&rsquo;t enough; emotional safety, self-awareness, and the willingness to grow are what sustain meaningful connection. This is a reminder that love is not just about finding the right person, it&rsquo;s about becoming the safest, most secure version of yourself. When we learn to meet our own unmet needs, we stop outsourcing our worth and start building relationships rooted in clarity, compassion, and conscious choice. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Identify Your Attachment Style How to Stop Overthinking in Relationships How to Communicate Your Emotional Needs Clearly How to Reprogram Limiting Love Beliefs How to Build Emotional Safety with a Partner How to Respond Instead of React to Triggers How to Set Boundaries Without Fear of Abandonment Awareness is the turning point. The moment you begin to notice your triggers without judging them, communicate your needs without apologizing for them, and choose growth over fear, that&rsquo;s the moment your relationships begin to change.
