Ever wonder why your partner’s “help” feels cold… why their silence triggers panic… or why you keep having the same arguments even when you both mean well?

In this episode, Maria Shkreli, breaks down the powerful intersection between your attachment style and your empathy style — the two systems that secretly shape how you love, comfort, react, and communicate.

You’ll learn why:

• Anxious attachers crave emotional empathy

• Avoidant attachers default to logical empathy

• Secure attachers offer balanced, compassionate empathy

• Disorganized attachers switch their empathy based on fear and overwhelm

Through real, relatable scenarios — the unread text, the “we need to talk,” the shutdown, the emotional whiplash — Maria shows how love gets misinterpreted simply because you and your partner speak different emotional languages.

If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, unseen, or confused by someone’s reactions, this episode finally connects the dots.
