In this episode, we dive into the complex world of relationships, focusing on how trauma can shape and challenge our connections with others and discuss everything from disorganised attachment to dissociation during conflict. For those of us who’ve experienced childhood trauma, these early disruptions — like attachment wounds, abandonment, rejection, emotional neglect, and abuse — can make navigating relationships particularly tough. By the end of this episode, I hope you come away with some clarity and insights on how to form and maintain healthier relationships.Themes explored Disorganised attachment & other insecure attachment styles  How trauma impacts relationships i.e. fear of intimacy, vulnerability and connection  Reenacting dysfunctional cycles i.e. choosing relationships/partners that mirror our early childhood trauma dynamics, self-sabotaging healthy relationships Navigating triggers, conflict, shutting down and dissociation within relational conflict and intimacy  How somatic therapy can support you in healing attachment and relational woundsNeed to work with a trauma informed therapist? BOOK IN YOUR ⁠BOOK A FREE 15 MIN CHEMISTRY CALL⁠RESOURCES TO SUPPORT YOUR RECOVERYTrigger Toolkit Free DownloadNervous System WorkbooksEMBODY The Workshop🍉 HELP FAMILIES EVACUATE GAZAFollow this link to donate
