Order your copy of The Let Them Theory 👉 👈 The #1 Best Selling Book of 2025 🔥 Discover how much power you truly have. It all begins with two simple words. Let Them.

In this episode, you are going to learn why you struggle in certain #relationships and how to let more love in.

Whether you struggle in your #friendships or your #romantic relationships, or you don’t feel connected to your #family or the community where you live, today's conversation will give you the insight and tools that you need to create better and more loving relationships everywhere.

Dr. Marisa Franco is a NYT bestselling author, award-winning therapist, and professor of psychology at The University of Maryland. She dedicated her professional practice to the study of connections and systemic #loneliness.

What will really catch your attention is her research on attachment styles and what they look like in real time, which has been an incredible game changer for me and my personal relationships, particularly with my husband.

Attachment style theory goes way beyond "love languages," and once you know yours, you’ll be less triggered by others around you.

Understand the attachment styles of others, and you’ll take things less personally.

In today’s episode, you’re getting a complete guide to:

- What attachment styles are and how they look in real life.

- The questions to ask yourself to figure out what your style is.

- How to tell if you’re hanging out with the right people.

- The one thing avoidant attachment people have a really hard time doing.

- How your attachment style determines who you’re attracted to.

- Why you might be confusing being triggered with being in love.

- Key strategies to start developing a secure attachment style yourself.

After listening to this episode, you’ll see the people in your life through an entirely new lens and with an abundance of compassion.

This is an encore episode with new and exciting insights from me at the top of the episode. You keep asking about how to make and keep healthy relationships, and it starts with developing a healthy relationship with yourself.
