In this episode Preston and Margaret dive into the science and personal experiences surrounding attachment theory. They discuss its origins, its modern-day interpretations, and how it shows up in everyday relationships.
Takeaways:
Attachment is Dynamic: Attachment theory isn’t a fixed diagnosis—it’s a lens to understand how people relate to others and themselves.
Repair Builds Resilience: Healthy relationships are not conflict-free but can recover from disagreements and grow stronger.
Pop Psych Oversimplifies: Modern discussions about attachment styles often miss the nuance and flexibility inherent in these frameworks.
Therapy is Practice: Therapy can rewire attachment patterns by creating safe spaces for emotional repair and connection.
Humor as a Shield: Humor can be a tool for connection but also a way to avoid vulnerability—knowing the difference matters.

It’s finally time to address our professional relationships with mental health treatment in a clear, calm, and professional manner.
It’s time that practitioners start to better understand ourselves, our patients, and our parallel journeys to address mental health struggles in this highly unpredictable cultural climate.
It’s time a podcast trailer presented a plan to constructively explore professional development for psychiatric professionals. Perhaps, in the form of a polished audio trailer!
We sure think so. Unfortunately, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
