Episode 114 Eli Harwood On Raising Securely Attached Kids - The MOST important episode!!!

This week on The Tim Castle Show I’m joined by the incredible Eli Harwood—better known as the Attachment Nerd. With over 738k followers on Instagram, Eli is a licensed therapist, author, and mom of three who is on a mission to help parents raise securely attached kids.

Her first book Securely Attached explored romantic relationships, but her newest book Raising Securely Attached Kids is the one she’s been preparing to write her whole life. Inspired by her own mother’s journey of breaking generational patterns and choosing healing, Eli shares powerful insights into how we can give our children the secure foundations they need to thrive.

This conversation is a MUST-listen for every parent. Together we explore:

• How to break old patterns and become the parent you truly want to be
• Proven strategies to create deep, lasting bonds with your kids
• Practical tools to manage anxiety and panic so you can show up calm and connected
• The difference between secure and insecure attachment—and why it matters for your child’s future

If you’ve ever worried about whether your kids will grow into confident, compassionate adults, this episode will give you hope and a roadmap. Eli’s work shows us how to build relationships rooted in connection, trust, and open communication.

This is one of the most important conversations you’ll hear as a parent—it has the power to change not just your child’s life, but yours too.
