Hello Hello!! Welcome back to The Attachment Confessions! I'm so grateful to have you here for episode 3 – My Attachment Red Flags.

Guys, I may end up regretting this, but today I'm spilling some tea on a few of the Fearful Avoidant red flags I've experienced in my past relationships. A couple stories are sins of my exes, a couple stories star yours truly, but ultimately, the real red flags are all mine to carry.

Whether I put up with bad behavior from partners way too many times to count, or I myself was the one exhibiting bad behavior – a red flag is a red flag is a red. freaking. flag. And thanks to my Fearful Avoidant insecure attachment, I've been both catching and waving those scarlet banners for far too long.

Here on The Attachment Confessions, you'll have a ring-side seat to my attachment healing journey. We'll get into some pretty heavy stuff but have a grand 'ol time while doing so! And who knows, maybe you'll be inspired to ALSO embark on your own attachment healing journey and finally put down your own red flags. That's my hope, at least!

Whether you're an Anxious Preoccupied, a Dismissive Avoidant, a Fearful Avoidant, OR the holy grail of them all – Securely Attached – all are welcome to witness my journey of going from FA to secure AF!

Let's do this, y'all!

What's up, guys?! I'm so glad you are here for episode 2 of The Attachment Confessions – The Fearful Avoidant: How I Got Here.

We start episode 2 by doing a quick recap of the 4 attachment styles (Anxious Preoccupied, Dismissive Avoidant, Fearful Avoidant, and Securely Attached).

Then, things get pretty personal as I take you on a stroll down memory lane of how my FA attachment style formed in childhood. I open up about the traumatic situation that took place when I was in my early teens that went on to shape how I view and do relationships from that point forward. So, if you're an empath, grab a tissue and let's just get this over with, shall we?! *Cue the nervous-sweating emoji*

Like I've mentioned, throughout The Attachment Confessions, you'll have a ring-side seat to my own attachment healing journey. We'll get into some pretty heavy stuff (i.e. today's episode) but have a grand 'ol time while doing so! And who knows, maybe you'll be inspired to ALSO embark on your own attachment healing journey. That's my hope, at least!

What's up y'all?! I'm Chelsea, and I am SO excited that you are here for my VERY FIRST EPISODE of The Attachment Confessions!!

Attachment science changed my life...for real, you guys.

"Hey Chels – what the heck is attachment science??"

GREAT QUESTION! In episode 1, I'm giving you all the DL on attachment theory. Who came up with it, when it was introduced. You know, the history stuff!

Then, we'll dive into the science-y stuff. I'll give you the scoop on the 4 attachment styles – the Anxious Preoccupied (AP), the Dismissive Avoidant (DA), the Fearful Avoidant (FA), and the Securely Attached (whom we all aspire to be!). We'll chat through how each attachment style is formed, their main attachment wounds, their biggest needs in a relationship, and some of the pros/cons of their behavior. More than likely, you'll quickly recognize yourself in one of these four attachment styles. Still on the fence?
