What if the way you attach to others is silently shaping every conversation you have—and every relationship you’re in?
In this episode of The Communicate Great Podcast, host Traci Poe welcomes Bryan Power, an Integrated Attachment Theory coach who turned his own season of struggle into a powerful framework for growth.
Bryan shares his journey of “failing forward,” how attachment styles form, and why healing core wounds is the key to healthier communication. From anxious to avoidant to secure, he breaks down the four main attachment styles and offers practical tools for moving toward greater emotional regulation and connection.
You’ll discover why timing matters when communicating, how to shift from listening to defend toward listening to truly understand, and why your subconscious beliefs may be sabotaging your conversations without you even realizing it.
Whether you’re navigating conflict in marriage, parenting challenges, or workplace communication, this episode gives you actionable steps to create more secure and meaningful connections.
Plus: How to recognize your triggers, reframe your partner’s reactions, and start building the skills that help relationships not just survive—but thrive.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
