About this listen

It’s been three days with no call or text back...you can’t eat, sleep, or work. You’re going to die alone in your bed, gripping your phone, waiting for a response; or at least that’s what your brain keeps telling you.

There’s a common flaw that people who chase partners all have in common. Are you an anxious attacher? If you’re still holding your phone hoping they’ll reply then drop it now and pick up this book.

Stop the self-fulfilling prophecy of worrying that your relationships will all end in disaster. Take a deep dive into healing your anxious attachment, learn how to boost your self-esteem and independence, and build a foundation for healthy love. The Anxious Hearts Guide is a collection of years of psychology research, book recommendations, and strategies to help supercharge your relational health and stop pushing potential partners away. It is an approachable, accessible, and enlightening window into why anxious attachers do the frustrating things that we do for love and how to rise above it.

thank you Rikki, you have shined light into a very sensitive topic yet so common and hard for the people who grew up with a anxious attachment ( and some of the disorganised fellows too). this work is so valuable and so needed. I'm sending you love and gratitude 🙏❤️✨️

Great book and great resources in it

I liked listening to it but there were lots of points mid way through the book for references for books and stuff but since I was listening on the go it means I've missed those parts and will struggle to find them again

easy listening

I almost didn’t read this book because Rikki gives so much value on Instagram that I thought I knew it all 😆

But I found myself nodding and gasping at the warning signals of how we get so easily hooked in to our anxious patterns when we feel hopeful with someone new

I feel excited to start dating and spending plenty of time talking with them about values and building trust BEFORE getting physical

When we are clear on our needs, we get to do our own vetting instead of trying to win them over and get chosen.

Thank you Rikki for all the research you’ve done to help us anxious attachers!

We get to be the ones that do the vetting!
