117. Disorganized Attachment: Why Your Nervous System Makes You Push and Pull in Relationships | Somatic Attachment Series Part 3
About this episode
Have you ever felt completely pulled toward someone, only to find yourself wanting to escape the moment they get close?
In this episode of Speak Honest, Jenn Noble is diving into Part 3 of the Somatic Attachment Series and getting into the part that nobody talks about enough... disorganized attachment. Jenn walks you through what is actually happening in your body during that push and pull, why it feels so chaotic and confusing, and how understanding your nervous system can help you stay with yourself instead of reacting from that place of overwhelm. Using real client stories and somatic tools you can actually use, this episode will help you start to see the cycle clearly so you can begin to move through it differently.
You might want to listen if:
- You find yourself missing someone deeply and then wanting out the moment they get emotionally close
- You often pick fights or question your relationship and then wonder why you did it once you calm down
- You feel like you are two different people in relationships and you cannot figure out which one is the real you
- You have heard the term disorganized attachment but still cannot quite make sense of what it actually feels like from the inside
- You are ready to stop reacting from your nervous system and start understanding what it is actually trying to tell you
