Ep 205: Unlocking Inner Safety: Overcoming the Need for Reassurance

Cheaper Than Therapy with Vanessa and Dené

In this episode of Cheaper than Therapy the Podcast, we sit down to address two questions submit by listeners with similar “energies.” One listener wants to know how to stop comparing themselves to their partners ex and feeling insecure in their ability to trust due to past relationships. Another listener is looking for clarification differentiating between an anxious attachment versus being a human seeking safety, consistency, and reassurance in a relationship.

Some Takeaways from this Episode:

✨ Safety in Self: Having an internal sense of security and interdependence will help to ease the insecurity of self-comparison, rather than repeatedly seeking outside validation to temporarily make you feel safe and secure

✨ Boundaries Help Personal Growth: Taking personal responsibility to remain authentically true to Self and maintaining personal boundaries to honor that authenticity over a partner’s insecurities

✨ Managing Anxiety: Seeking constant reassurance and validation can create a perception the relationship is unsafe, so take time to actively recognize and appreciate what about the relationship makes you feel good and secure in the attachment
