58. Lessons in Healing, Attracting, & Committing with Persia Lawson
About this episode
In this episode of Lessons in Attachment, Carly Ann is joined by special guest, Persia Lawson. Listen in as they discuss:
- The importance of being your authentic self when dating and not abandoning yourself in the pursuit of love
- How we are drawn to what is familiar and therefore how for some people, being adored and loved can sometimes feel scary and vulnerable, resulting in “the ick” or feeling like the relationship is lacking in chemistry, leading to sabotaging behaviours
- How to decipher between this and the relationship genuinely not being a good fit, and the importance of listening to your gut
- Tips for when you’re getting back into dating after a healing phase
- How dating apps are just one way to meet people, and the importance of sometimes putting your phone down, being present and turning your energy towards being open and connecting with people in real life
…. And many more insights!
