    How Do I Connect With People and Why Do I Do it That Way? - Peter Leighton LPCC

    Why do you connect with others the way you do—and can it change? In this episode of GraceStory Podcast, we explore how attachment styles shape the way we love, trust, and relate to others. Whether you lean anxious, avoidant, disorganized, or secure, these patterns often form early in life—and impact everything from marriage to parenting to faith. Our guest, Peter Leighton LPCC, trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), breaks down the science of attachment and offers hope for healing. You’ll learn how trauma affects emotional bonds, what EFT looks like in practice, and how a faith-based approach can help restore secure, connected relationships. If you’ve ever asked, “Why do I keep doing this in relationships?”—this episode is for you.

    Boundaries: How to Lovingly Enforce Them With People Who Don't Understand - Taylora Bookie LPC

    Setting boundaries is hard. Setting them with people who don’t understand—or don’t care to—is even harder. In this powerful episode, licensed counselor Taylora Bookie of Quies Counseling joins us to unpack how to enforce boundaries with grace, clarity, and love. Together, we explore why boundaries often trigger guilt (especially for Christians), how to handle emotional pushback, and what it really means to protect your peace without losing your compassion. Whether you're healing from trauma, recovering from spiritual manipulation, or simply learning to say “no” without shame, this conversation offers practical tools rooted in both Scripture and wisdom from a licensed counselor.
