Teri Cole is a psychotherapist and best-selling author of ‘Boundary Boss’. In this episode, she talks about the different types of attachment styles, why we all have varying degrees of fear of abandonment, and in what way we can change, or at least improve, the type of people we are attracted to. Sarah and Teri also discuss how the different attachment styles impact different relationships.

You will also learn the impact that our childhood and upbringing have on the connections we have as adults. The way our parents bonded, the role models we had as infants, and the lessons we learned about love, connection, and relationships growing up all define how we will show up during intimate relations. At the end of the episode, Teri shares a special gift with the listeners so tune in!

“It’s easy to forget that we have inherited worth as human beings and we should be loved, adored, and treated well – and we should treat others that way.” – Terri Cole
