393. You Can Become Securely Attached (Even If You Didn’t Start Out That Way)

You've taken the quiz and you've read the books, so you know your attachment style. But last night your partner said, "We need to talk," and your whole body went off like a car alarm.

It's called earned secure attachment; it's real, and researchers have been studying it for decades.

Today you'll learn what earned secure attachment really is, the three things earned secure attachment is not, and the five tools to start building it this week.
