The person you feel the biggest spark with is often the one who treats you the way you treat yourself.
In this clip, Thais Gibson and Jay Shetty break down the four attachment styles. She explains where each one starts in childhood. And she shows why it keeps showing up in who you date.
Thais shares the one sentence from a classmate that changed how she saw herself. And she explains why so many people meet a kind, steady partner and feel nothing at all.
Learn about the simple 21-day exercise she uses to rewire old wounds, and why affirmations aren’t part of it. And learn which partner she’d pick: the one who feels safe, or the one who keeps you on edge.
