This Patreon exclusive episode informs on the topic of attachment styles, particularly focusing on how cults and controlling relationships undermine healthy attachment. Rachel Bernstein examines different attachment styles: secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized, and links them to early caregiver interactions and trauma. The discussion covers how cults intentionally disrupt these attachments, creating trauma bonds that complicate the process of leaving and recovering from such environments. The episode concludes with insights into the challenges survivors face in forming healthy relationships and reconnecting with loved ones.
