Why Your Relationships Trigger You: Understanding Attachment & Emotional Safety

In this powerful episode of Naturally High, Jeanne explores why our closest relationships often feel like the hardest ones, and how our early attachment patterns silently shape the way we love, react, and connect. Jeanne speaks about the emotional blueprints that dictate how we show up with partners, children, family members, and even colleagues, blueprints which are often created in childhood.

You’ll learn the core features of anxious, avoidant, disorganized, and secure attachment and how each style influences conflict, intimacy, and communication. Jeanne explains why triggers appear in our most intimate bonds and why understanding context over content is essential for breaking repetitive cycles and creating real repair.

With her signature blend of clinical insight and lived experience, Jeanne shares practical tools to navigate conflict without abandoning yourself, regulate your emotional responses, and renegotiate relationship dynamics with clarity and compassion. She also reflects on lessons from her 44-year marriage, demonstrating what becomes possible when we take full responsibility for our part and commit to growing both individually and together.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, get curious, and see your relational patterns as opportunities for profound healing. Whether you’re partnered, single, estranged, or rebuilding, you’ll come away with a deeper understanding of yourself, and a roadmap leading to healthier, more rewarding relationships.
