The Grammar of Us
Why do we keep having the same arguments? Why do we feel truly seen by some people and misunderstood by others? "The Grammar of Us" is a podcast that decodes the hidden language of human connection. We go beyond the surface of relationships to explore the underlying behavioral patterns—the unspoken rules, the recurring cycles, and the subtle communications that define how we treat each other.
Each week, we break down the syntax of love, conflict, and everything in between. Whether it's with a partner, a family member, a friend, or a colleague, we'll provide you with the tools to identify your own relational patterns, break negative cycles, and build more conscious, compassionate, and resilient connections. Tune in to rewrite your relational grammar and build a more fulfilling "us."
We invite you to tune in, engage, and connect with a community that celebrates the beautiful complexity of being human. Let’s embark on this journey together!

An Overview of the Four Attachment Styles
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In today's episode we dive into Attachment Style Theory. What are attachment styles? Attachment styles or types reflect how you behave in a romantic relationship and are based on the emotional connection you formed as an infant with your primary caregiver—often your mother.
- Secure attachment
- Anxious attachment
- Avoidant attachment
- Disorganized attachment
Remember, this is not a diagnosis and we all embody all attachment styles but some may be more dominant than others at different times. For example, if you find yourself in a relationship where you are demonstrating more anxious traits, this could be due to the environment that you're in rather than who you are at the core. Your attachment style can vary from relationship to relationship.
Finally, it's important that when you're in a relationship, understanding your partners dominant attachment style can be incredibly helpful in navigating conflict and stressful situations.
