your attachment wound is runnign the show
Mari welcomes back licensed therapist Amy Preble (Crew Relationship Coach) to explain why you chase your partner around the house OR completely shut down in conflict - and it all happens in a nanosecond before you even realize it. They discuss the two core attachment wounds ("I'm not enough" vs "I'm too much"), why Tom calls therapy "going to church" while Mari calls it "the pain dungeon," where your wound lives in your body (chest, throat, stomach), and why insight doesn't lead to change (fucking damnit). Amy walks through how to identify what's happening when you're reactive: get meta (observe yourself without judgment), slow down (reactivity is fast, responsiveness needs time), and check in with your body instead of staying in your head. Plus, the relief of learning you don't need to find the "why" if you can identify the "what," and why being in The Crew improved Amy's life "125%."
