Finding Brave 281: The New Rules of Attachment - What to Know and Do To Help Heal Your Life
During this episode, Dr. Judy Ho joins us to unpack key concepts from her newly published book, The New Rules of Attachment. Judy isa triple board-certified and licensed clinical and forensic neuropsychologist, a tenured associate professor at Pepperdine University, television and podcast host, and published author. Among her numerous professional pursuits, she conducts neuropsychological and psychodiagnostic evaluations, serves as an expert witness in legal cases, conducts clinical research, provides expert commentary to media, and is a sought-after public speaker.
Join us as we unpack the four attachment styles, and learn how they are formed and ways in which they influence the quality of our relationships and our lives. Judy also shares key key information about how we can begin to unravel the early experiences that have shaped our core beliefs and relational patterns today.
As Judy shares: "If you don't go into the past to understand why you formed these patterns in the first place, you're just going to be continuing to be in the same cycle over and over again."
We also explore powerful mindset and behavioral shifts to empower parents, and Judy shares helpful affirmations that anyone can implement to change their self-talk.
Join us for an instrumental and hopeful conversation filled with valuable insights to help you heal and grow, in your life, career and relationships.
