Why We Love People Who Can’t Love Us Back - Sonya Figueiredo
In this episode of Good Girl Talks, host Sonya Figueiredo dives into the concept of attachment styles and their influence on our relationships. She explains the four main attachment styles—secure, anxious, avoidant, and fearful avoidant—using relatable examples and personal anecdotes.
You know that magnetic pull toward the person who’s half-in, half-out — the one who texts just enough to keep your nervous system guessing?
Yeah, that’s not fate, babe — that’s your attachment style running the show.
In this soulful, sassy, and science-infused solo episode, Sonya Figueiredo unpacks why smart, capable women keep repeating the same love patterns — and how to finally change the script.
Through stories, body-based tools, and that signature Good Girl Talks honesty, you’ll learn how to:
✨ Spot your attachment triggers in real time
✨ Regulate your body when love feels unsafe
✨ Reclaim your power by becoming your own secure base
This one’s part masterclass, part mirror, and 100% permission slip to stop chasing and start becoming.
