    Attachment styles and their role in adult relationships: how understanding yours can lead to healthier, happier relationships!

    This session touches on a crucial topic that I think we can ALL resonate with. It's an area that I feel we should all develop our knowledge in order to improve our relationships (not just romantic). Our attachment style can be a scary predictor of relationship success; as these patterns of attachment are typically set in childhood they tend to follow us around through to adulthood. 💭 Have a listen to S4:E3 now as The Inner Yats and I explore the science behind attachment theory, different attachment styles, recognising your own attachment style, how our behaviour can sabotage a relationship (consciously or subconsciously), and how can we overcome such behaviours? 🧠 Thanks in advance for tuning in! Happy Christmas and have a fab New Year everyone! ⭐💕 thedamselindatingdistress.co.uk / @thedamselindatingdistress

    The power of connection through voice. Do we really know what we want in a partner? And some quick stats about dating apps...

    In this fabulous episode (if I do say so myself!) I'm graced by the presence of Heather Li. As a single, 30 something female, Heather wanted to explore an alternative to swipe culture and wondered whether the power of voice could lead to a deeper connection. Following a number of conversations with psychologists and voice analytics experts, she created a voice-only blind dating experiment. 🗣️ I get the pleasure of hearing all about the process and findings from her 12 month project. We also touch on the psychology behind dating such as how our behaviours differ online vs in real life, do we really know what we want in a partner, and what science says about building intimacy and successful relationships? Lastly we share some quick (perhaps shocking) stats about dating apps! Thanks for tuning in, hope you enjoy the content! 💕 thedamselindatingdistress.co.uk / @thedamselindatingdistress
