You Are Not Your Attachment Style: IFS, Healing, and Hard Truths

In this heartfelt episode, Kass dives deep into the world of attachment styles through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS). She shares why attachment isn’t who you are—it’s simply how your nervous system learned to survive love, loss, and connection.

Kass also gets real about the debate on whether dismissive traits can cause emotional harm, why labeling without accountability is dangerous, and how repeating patterns in relationships may cross into emotional abuse when awareness meets avoidance. Through her own stories of heartbreak, healing, and honest self-reflection, she illustrates how IFS helps reframe anxious, avoidant, or dismissive behaviors not as flaws—but as protective strategies shaped by our earliest wounds.

You’ll learn:

• Why attachment styles are maps, not identities

• How IFS “parts” (Exiles, Managers, Firefighters) show up in relationships

• Why accountability and communication matter more than excuses

• How healing work creates compassion—for others and yourself

• The power of nervous system regulation practices like breathwork, sound, and yoga

This conversation is raw, vulnerable, and full of practical wisdom to help you understand your patterns, release shame, and step into healthier ways of relating—with yourself and with others.
