    Ep. 29 - GUEST EPISODE - Working Through Trust & Hypervigilance as a Fearful Avoidant

    Do you struggle with trust? If so, you’re not alone. Trust is among one of the biggest areas of concern in modern dating and relationships, especially if you’ve experienced either big or small forms of trauma from ghosting, to cheating, to dishonesty, to abuse. As a result, you may feel overprotective, guarded, and hypervigilant when dating. In some ways this intense awareness can be seen as intentional dating – being purposeful – however if you’re constantly questioning a person’s motives, it may be crossing the line into fear and reactivity, rather than purpose-driven intentional dating. So how can you know the difference between when it’s fair to be protective and intentional from a secure place and when you’re being hypervigilant from a wounded, fearful place? That’s what we discuss in this month’s Truer Love Stories’ episode with our guest, a fearful avoidant type, who finds herself stuck in fear and nervousness, even after being with a partner whom she felt was secure. Listen and learn as I provide her with clarity on her past relationship and guide her with some practical tools for how she can feel more intentional and secure going forward.

    Ep. 28 - GUEST EPISODE - Breaking Free of the Anxious-Avoidant Trap

    Do you repeatedly find yourself in new relationships that quickly end up feeling just like your last one that didn’t work out? Do you notice that even with partners who initially appeared completely different from your last partner, the situations you find yourself in with them seem eerily similar to the ones you just got out of, such as being on-and-off again, unclear about their intentions, or feeling blissfully in love in the beginning, only for them to suddenly pull away and you don’t know why? If so, you’re very likely caught in the most common of attachment dynamics: the Anxious-Avoidant Trap. The danger of this trap is that it operates at the subconscious level, so it can be tricky to get out of without the proper tools and awareness. Listen and learn as Taryn guides her guest through breaking free from being stuck in the Anxious-Avoidant Trap.

    Ep. 27 - EXPERT EPISODE - Attachment & Your Nervous System

    Did you know that your attachment style is directly related to your nervous system? In fact, how your nervous system learned to respond to its environment as a young child is what led you to developing those distinct characteristics that you identify with your attachment style, for instance, needing extra reassurance or needing extra space. In this month’s episode, Nervous System Coach and Physical Therapist Charlotte Mah shares her deep wisdom of the mind-body connection to help you understand attachment at its most foundational level.

    Ep. 26 - EXPERT EPISODE - Are You Dating a Narcissist?

    “Narcissist” is a hot-button topic these days, especially in the dating world, and the term is thrown around fairly frequently to describe people who seem self-absorbed and likely to dismiss your needs in a relationship. But what does it actually mean to be diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder and what red flags should you look out for to determine if the person you’re seeing is more severely on the narcissistic spectrum? These are the questions we address in this month’s Truer Love Stories episode with special guest Jessica Whitehead, a licensed marriage and family therapist with an expertise in relational and sex therapy, who has a wealth of knowledge to contribute to the topic!

    Ep. 25 - REFLECTION EPISODE - Are You Being Love Bombed?

    Love bombing sucks (along with its sister, ghosting). What is love bombing, exactly, and how is it related to ghosting? And (most importantly) how can you prevent both of them from happening again? This month Taryn dive’s deep into the answers to these questions. The explanations are fascinating and are guaranteed to transform your dating experiences.

    Ep. 24 - GUEST EPISODE - How Can You Tell if They’re Right for You?

    Does your dating life feel like an endless hamster wheel of meeting people you think are “the one,” only to learn (after way too many tears and pints of ice cream) that they weren’t “the one,” after all? If this is you, this month’s episode will help you clarify what’s important when determining if someone is “the one” and what isn’t – and how to go about figuring it out sooner than later.

    Ep. 23 - GUEST EPISODE - The Reason You Lose Yourself in Your Relationships

    Do you start off relationships feeling totally confident, but before long are wondering how that big, bright, magnetic person could turn into someone who seems small, dark, and lost? This was the case for this month’s guest, who beautifully shares a recent romantic experience that started off with sparks but ultimately left her feeling confused, completely disconnected from herself, and unsure of how to move forward. If this is a pattern you’ve noticed in yourself and want to understand where it comes from and how to move past it, tune in to hear her story!
