Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey everyone and welcome to another deep dive.
Today we're going to be talkingabout anxious attachment styles
.
You know we got a request froma listener to cover this excerpt
from Lestallion's 50 journalprompts for those stuck in
anxious attachment and it's apretty great read to unpack some
of those anxieties andinsecurities that pop up in
relationships.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Yeah, you know, Lestallion really gets right to
the core of it, right?

Speaker 1 (00:33):
That fear of rejection, that fear of
abandonment.
Yeah, we see that so often inrelationships and you know it
can really kind of make usquestion everything you know,
just like staying stuck in thosefeelings.
But it's like using thosefeelings productively to
understand, maybe even heal,some of those things you know.
So, like, what do you thinkwhat's the magic in journaling?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
well, you know, lasallian puts it really well in
the article.
They say that starting ajournal is like using a
flashlight to see in the dark.
Right, you're kind ofilluminating all those thoughts,
those reactions that sometimesyou don't even realize are
driving your behavior.
So it's about getting thoseaate moments, those oh that's
why I do that moments.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Right Like finally seeing the roots of some of
those anxious tendencies.
And once you see them, you canstart to untangle them a little
bit.
And you know, speaking ofgetting to those root causes,
there's a bunch of prompts thatLestallion has that are just
like whoa For sure they reallyget to the core of this stuff.
Yeah.
So one that really resonatedwith me was reflect on how

(01:31):
anxious attachment hasinfluenced your decision making
in relationships.
I mean, I think we've all beenthere right when we're making
decisions from this place ofinsecurity rather than from a
place of strength.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Yeah, and this is where you start to connect the
dots between your attachmentstyle and your actions and
relationships.
And you know you mentionedinsecurity, so think about
people pleasing, avoidingconflict, constantly seeking
validation.
Does any of that sound?

Speaker 1 (01:57):
familiar, oh my gosh.
Yes.
Constantly.
It's like you're so afraid ofthat potential rejection or
abandonment that you end up kindof contorting yourself in all
these ways to avoid it, even ifit means like compromising what
you actually want.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Exactly, and that's exactly it.
But it's when you can recognizethose patterns that you can
start making different choices.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Choices that are aligned with your values, your
needs, what you desire in arelationship.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yes, it's like changing the game.
And speaking of changing,another prompt that really stood
out to me was describe thephysical sensations you
experience when feeling insecurein a relationship, because, for
me at least, anxiety isn't justin my head, it's like a full
body experience, you know.
Oh, absolutely the mind andbody are so connected.
Think about it.

(02:40):
When you're feeling anxious,maybe your heart starts to race,
or you get a pit in yourstomach.
Even your breathing changes.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Right.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
This prompt helps you tune in to those sensations,
because they're giving youvaluable information.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
Right, it's like your body's trying to tell you
something like hey, payattention, something's off here.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Precisely, and when you start to pay attention to
those physical sensations, youdevelop this deeper
self-awareness and understandingof your own anxiety patterns.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
So we're like emotional detectives in a way,
which I kind of like.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
But you know, it's interesting because Lestallion
doesn't just leave us hangingthere with all this
self-reflection.
There are also all theseprompts focused on building
healthier relationship patterns,which I think is really cool.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Absolutely.
It's one thing to identify thepatterns, but you've got to
create healthier ones, andLestallion gives us a way to do
that.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah, like, for example, there's a prompt that
asks how do you maintain youridentity and independence in a
relationship, which I think ishuge for anyone, but especially
people with an anxiousattachment style, because that
urge to cling can be so strong.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
It is a crucial aspect of any healthy
relationship, regardless ofattachment style, and this
prompt is a good reminder thathaving an anxious attachment
style doesn't mean you'redestined to be codependent.
It's about recognizing andnurturing your individuality.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Yes, and remembering that you had a whole life before
this relationship and you'llhave a whole life after it, even
if things change.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
Exactly.
It allows you to show up asyour whole self, not from a
place of.
I need this relationship tofeel complete, you know.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Right, and that is a game changer.
And on that note of showing upauthentically, Lestallion also
talks about the importance ofsetting boundaries and there's a
prompt that asks reflect ontime.
You had to set a boundary.
How was it received?
Which, for people pleasers.
Like many with an anxiousattachment style, it can be
really scary to set thoseboundaries.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
Yeah, it feels counterintuitive, right, Because
it pushes against that fear ofrejection that we're trying to
avoid.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Exactly, but you're saying it's possible to learn
that skill and actuallyexperience a different outcome.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
For sure, and it's important to remember that.
Healthy boundaries.
They're essential for allrelationships.
They're not about controllingsomeone or pushing them away.
It's about honoring your ownneeds and expecting that respect
.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
It's like saying this is important to me and I need
you to respect that, and ahealthy relationship can handle
that kind of directcommunication right.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Absolutely.
In fact, healthy relationshipsthrive on open communication and
mutual respect.
It's all about finding thatbalance.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Yeah, I love that, and one thing I really
appreciate it is that Lestallionpoints out that, like you're
not alone in this.
You know they mentioned thatsomething like 20 percent of
adults have an anxiousattachment style.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
It's true, and it's really comforting to remember
that it is.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
It's like okay, it's not just me, there are other
people who get this and, moreimportantly, there's hope for
healing and growth.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Exactly, you're not broken, you're not flawed,
you're just working with aspecific attachment style.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Right and there are ways to work with it.
And I love how they end withthis really beautiful quote.
They say beneath the shadow ofanxious attachment lies a sunlit
path of self-discovery.
Each step forward is a steptowards the light, where love is
not a question of worthinessbut a celebration of being.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
That is such a great quote, so powerful and hopeful.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Isn't it?
It's like that fear of notbeing worthy of love.
That's the shadow.
But when we do this work, theself-discovery, the boundary
setting, that's how we step intothe light, where love just dies
.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
It really is about recognizing that inherent
worthiness, regardless of yourpast or your attachment style,
and Lestallion offers some greatprompts to help us cultivate
that sense of self-worth.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
For sure, and one of the prompts that I really
connected with was what are someways you can practice
self-compassion when you'refeeling insecure in your
relationship, because, let's bereal, that self-criticism can be
brutal.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
Oh, it's so true, especially for those with an
anxious attachment, that innercritic is on overdrive,
amplifying those fears ofrejection and abandonment.
But this prompt encourages usto turn down the volume on that
inner critic and turn up thevolume on self-compassion.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
So it's about treating ourselves with the same
kindness and understanding thatwe would offer a close friend.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Exactly Recognizing that everyone feels insecure
sometimes.
It's about offering ourselvesthat gentleness and
understanding.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yeah, like saying to yourself hey, it's all right to
feel this way.
You're not weak or needy forfeeling insecure, you're human.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
I love that reframe because it really is about
shifting from self-criticism toself-acceptance and from there
we can start to challenge thosenegative beliefs that are
fueling our anxious attachmentpatterns.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
And I think that ties into another prompt that stood
out to me.
What are some negative beliefsyou hold about yourself and
relationships?
This feels like where the realdeep work begins right,
uncovering those core beliefs.
Absolutely A lot of times thosenegative beliefs are coming
from our early experiences.
The messages we received aboutbegins right.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Uncovering those core beliefs.
Absolutely A lot of times thosenegative beliefs are coming
from our early experiences, themessages we received about
ourselves and relationshipsgrowing up, things like I'm not
good enough, I'm unlovable, Ihave to be perfect to be loved.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
And they become these self-fulfilling prophecies in a
way, don't they?

Speaker 2 (07:42):
They do, they shape how we show up in our
relationships.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
It's like we're all walking around with these
invisible scripts that we'refollowing.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
And until we identify those scripts, we can't rewrite
them.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
So true.
So how do we rewrite them?
What can we actually do tochallenge those beliefs?

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Well, Lestallion talks about building
self-awareness, which we'vetalked about, but it also goes
beyond that.
It's about actively challengingthose negative thoughts when
they come up.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
You mean catching ourselves in the act when those
not good enough or they're goingto leave me.
Thoughts pop up.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Exactly and then asking is that thought really
true?
What evidence do I have?
Because when we really examinethose thoughts, we see they're
not based in reality.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
It's like they lose their power when we shine a
light on them.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
I love that, holding them up to the light, because
that's what happens we take awaytheir power by acknowledging
them, questioning them andchoosing to believe something
different.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, so shining a light and challenging those
negative beliefs.
What else?

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Well, building self-esteem outside of our
relationships is key.
Remember that prompt aboutidentifying your passions.
What makes you you.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
Right, building that sense of self-worth outside of a
romantic relationship.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Exactly because when we only rely on our
relationships for self-worth,that's when we cling and fall
into those anxious attachmentpatterns.
When we cultivate a strongsense of self in other areas of
our lives, it changes the energywe bring to our relationships.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
I love that.
It's like we're less likely toseek validation from our
partners because we're alreadyvalidating ourselves.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
Exactly, and that makes all the difference.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
So we're challenging those negative beliefs, building
self-esteem, and this next partfeels crucial Learning to
communicate our needseffectively, which, with anxious
attachment, can be toughbecause we might avoid
expressing our needs directlyfor fear of, well you know,
rocking the boat.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
You're spot on.
This is where the rubber meetsthe road, because if we can't
communicate our needs in ahealthy way, we fall back into
people pleasing, withdrawing,trying to control the situation.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
It's like we're trying to read minds instead of
just using our words.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Right and I think we've all been there.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Totally, but Lestallion is really encouraging
us to have those courageousconversations.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
They are, because healthy relationships need that
open and honest communicationand, while it can be scary,
expressing our needs and settingboundaries actually creates a
stronger foundation for intimacy.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
It's like we're rewiring our brains to
communicate in a way that feelssafe.
Aa, authentic, saying this isimportant to me.
Can we talk about it Instead ofhinting or getting upset when
our needs aren't magically met?

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Exactly, it takes practice, but the rewards are
huge.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
So we're becoming fluent in the language of
healthy relationships.
What else?

Speaker 2 (10:28):
can we take away from Lestallion about breaking free
from those anxious attachmentpatterns?
Well, they talk about theimportance of recognizing and
celebrating progress, becausethis work is hard.
It's easy to get caught up infeeling like you're not there
yet, but Lestallion reminds usto acknowledge how far we've
come and celebrate the victories.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Even just recognizing the patterns is huge, right,
like aha, there you areself-sabotage, I see you.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
Exactly and then choosing a different response.
Definitely worth celebrating.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
It's like we're giving ourselves the validation
we might be looking forexternally, which makes us less
dependent on that externalvalidation.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
It all comes back around, and I think that's what
makes this approach so powerful.
It's not about being perfect,it's about progress.
We're all works in progress,and that's OK.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Embracing the journey , bumps and all, and celebrating
those moments when we choosecourage over fear, vulnerability
over hiding and love over fear.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Beautifully said.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
And speaking of transformation, lestallion ends
with this quote, and I have toread it again.
They say Beneath the shadow ofanxious attachment lies a sunlit
path of self-discovery.
Each step forward is a steptowards the light, where love is
not a question of worthinessbut a celebration of being.
It's so good.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Right.
It's like we're not justhealing our attachment styles,
we're healing our relationshipwith ourselves, and that is a
gift.
It really is.
Well, there you have it A deepdive into anxious attachment,
with a little help from theStallion and their journal
prompts.
Remember this journey is aboutprogress, not perfection.
Be kind to yourself, celebratethose wins and keep moving

(11:55):
toward that sunlit path ofself-discovery.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
And remember you're not alone on this journey.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
And if anxious attachment is rooted in those
early experiences as we've beentalking about, it makes you
wonder how much can we reshapethose patterns.
Can we rewrite those oldscripts and learn to connect in
ways that feel safe, secure andfulfilling?
That's something to think about.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
It has been so insightful discussing these
prompts with you today.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
And until next time, keep exploring, keep growing and
keep shining your light.
It really is about recognizingthat inherent worthiness,
regardless of your past or yourattachment style, and Lestallion
offers some great prompts tohelp us cultivate that sense of
self-worth.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
Totally, and one of the prompts that really struck
me was what are some ways youcan practice self-compassion
when you're feeling insecure inyour relationship, because,
let's be honest, thatself-criticism can be brutal
sometimes, right.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Oh, it's so true, especially for those with an
anxious attachment, that innercritic can be incredibly loud.
It's like it just amplifiesthose fears of rejection and
abandonment.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
But this prompt encourages us to turn down the
volume on that inner critic andturn up the volume on
self-compassion.
So it's about treatingourselves with the same kindness
and understanding that we wouldoffer a close friend who's
going through something similar.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Exactly.
It's about recognizing thateveryone feels insecure
sometimes, and that's okay.
It's about offering ourselvesthat same gentleness and
understanding instead ofjudgment.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
It's like saying to yourself hey, it's all right to
feel this way.
You're not weak or needy forfeeling insecure.
You're human and you're doingyour best.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
I love that reframe because it really is about
shifting from a place ofself-criticism to a place of
self-acceptance, and from therewe can start to challenge those
negative beliefs that arefueling our anxious attachment
patterns.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
And I imagine that ties into another prompt that
caught my eye what are somenegative beliefs you hold about
yourself in relationships?
This feels like where thedeeper work begins right
Uncovering those core beliefsthat might be holding us back.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
Absolutely yeah, because often those negative
beliefs are rooted in our earlyexperiences and the messages we
received about ourselves andrelationships Things like I'm
not good enough, I'm unlovable,or I have to be perfect to be
loved.
And those beliefs become theseself-fulfilling prophecies, in a
way shaping how we show up inrelationships.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Wow, it's like those beliefs become these invisible
scripts we're unknowinglyfollowing, even if they're not
serving us anymore.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
Exactly.
But the good news is, once weidentify those scripts, we can
start to rewrite them, andthat's where the real
transformation happens.
We can start to choose beliefsthat empower us and allow us to
create healthier, morefulfilling relationships.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
So how do we start rewriting those scripts?
What can we actually DO tochallenge those deeply ingrained
beliefs?

Speaker 2 (14:39):
That's the million-dollar question and
thankfully Lestallion gives us aframework for doing just that.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Okay, tell me more, because I'm ready to trade in
these old scripts for a shinynew edition.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
Well, Lestallion talks about the importance of
building self-awareness, whichwe've already touched on with
the journaling prompts.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
But beyond that, it's about actively challenging
those negative thoughts whenthey arise, so catching
ourselves in the act when thatinner critic starts spinning
tales of you're not good enoughor they're going to leave you.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Exactly and then asking ourselves is this thought
really true?
What evidence do I have tosupport this?
And often, when we reallyexamine those negative thoughts,
we realize they're not based inreality, they're just echoes
thought really true.
What evidence do I have tosupport this?
And often, when we reallyexamine those negative thoughts,
we realize they're not based inreality.
They're just echoes of oldwounds and outdated beliefs.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
It's like those thoughts lose their power when
we hold them up to the light ofawareness and challenge their
validity.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
I love that image of holding them up to the light,
because that's exactly whathappens.
We strip them of their power bysimply acknowledging them,
questioning them and choosing tobelieve something different.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
Okay, so we're shining a light on those
negative beliefs and challengingthem head on.
What else does Lestallionsuggest for this script rewrite.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Well, they also emphasize the importance of
building self-esteem outside ofrelationships.
Remember that prompt aboutidentifying your passions and
what makes you you.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Oh right, Nurturing that sense of individuality and
self-worth outside of a romanticrelationship.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
Exactly Because when we derive our sense of
worthiness solely from ourrelationships, we're more likely
to cling tightly and fall intothose anxious attachment
patterns.
But when we cultivate a strongsense of self and find
fulfillment in other areas ofour lives, we bring that sense
of wholeness and security intoour relationships.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
It's like we're less likely to seek validation from
our partners because we'realready validating ourselves
through our passions, ourpurpose, our connections with
friends and family.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
You got it.
And that shift in energy makesall the difference in the world.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
So we're challenging those negative beliefs, building
self-esteem, and I have afeeling this next part is
crucial too.
Lestallion talks about theimportance of learning to
communicate our needseffectively.
This feels huge, especially inthe context of anxious
attachment, where we might shyaway from expressing our needs
directly out of fear of rockingthe boat.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
You're spot on, and this is where the rubber really
meets the road in terms oftransforming our attachment
style, because if we're not ableto communicate our needs in a
healthy way, we're more likelyto resort to those old patterns
of people pleasing, withdrawingor trying to control the
situation.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
It's like we're trying to read minds and
anticipate needs instead of justyou know using our words and
having an open, honestconversation.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
It's so true, and I think a lot of us, regardless of
attachment style, can relate tothat fear of vulnerability that
comes with expressing our needsdirectly.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
Absolutely, Especially when it comes to
romantic relationships.
But Lestallion reallyencourages us to step outside of
our comfort zones and havethose courageous conversations
right.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
Exactly.
They remind us that healthyrelationships thrive on open and
honest communication and, whileit might feel scary at first,
expressing our needs and settingthose boundaries actually
creates a stronger foundationfor connection and intimacy.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, it's like you're learning to say, hey,
this is important to me, can wetalk about it Instead of doing
that whole hoping they'll justmagically figure it out thing.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Exactly, it's a whole new way of communicating.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Totally so.
We're like learning thelanguage of healthy
relationships, boundaries,communication, all that good
stuff.
What else stood out to you fromLestallion's advice?

Speaker 2 (18:09):
Well, they talk about celebrating progress.
Because you know this work ishard, it's really easy to get
caught up in that I'm not thereyet, feeling and minimize all
the wins along the way.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Oh, totally.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
But we have to acknowledge how far we've come
and really celebrate thosevictories, no matter how small.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Yeah, because even just recognizing the patterns is
big, like, oh hey, there youare again.
Self-sabotage, just thatawareness is huge.
And then to actually choose,something different like that's
awesome.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Exactly every time we communicate a need directly
instead of withdrawing, everytime we choose self-compassion,
we're rewiring those neuralpathways yeah we're creating
healthier patterns yeah and thatdeserves to be celebrated it's
like we're giving ourselves thevalidation we might be seeking
externally, which makes us lessdependent on it.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
I love that.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
And I think that's what makes Lestallion's approach
so powerful.
It's not about being perfect,it's about progress.
We're all works in progress.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yes, love.
That it's like embracing thejourney, bumps and all, and
celebrating those moments whenwe choose courage and
vulnerability and love over fear.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Couldn't have said it better myself.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
And speaking of powerful messages, lestallion
ends with this quote, and I haveto read it one more time.
They say Beneath the shadow ofanxious attachment lies a sunlit
path of self-discovery.
Each step forward is a steptowards the light, where love is
not a question of worthinessbut a celebration of being.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
So good right.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Every time I hear it it's like, wow, we're not just
healing our attachment styles,we're healing our relationships
with ourselves, and that's huge,it's a gift, it really is.
Well, there you have it, folksA deep dive into the world of
anxious attachment, with thosefantastic insights and journal
prompts from Lestallion.
And remember this journey isabout progress, not perfection.

(19:56):
Be kind to yourselves,celebrate those wins and keep
moving toward that sunlit pathof self-discovery.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
You're not alone.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
And if anxious attachment is rooted in those
early experiences which we'vetalked about, it makes you think
how much can we actuallyreshape those patterns?
Can we rewrite those oldscripts and learn to connect in
ways that feel safe, secure,fulfilling Something to ponder,
for sure.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
It's been so great diving into this with you.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
It has and to everyone, listening.
Keep exploring, keep growingand keep shining your light.
