Anxious Attachment, Ultimatums, & the Martyr Complex - EL007

Welcome to "Engineering Love," a relationship podcast where Kim helps you build better connections by troubleshooting communication and conflict resolution. This episode highlights these questions: My partner avoids me and shuts down. How do I handle this being anxiously attached? My partner will not commit to marrying me, even though I communicated marriage being a priority early on. What should I do? I often take on tasks that no one else wants to do, like a martyr, and then feel resentful toward my friends. Where does this come from? Are you frustrated that therapy is too expensive or every therapist you pursue has a waiting list? Then come work with me in my private workshop community. In my live virtual workshops, I teach you tools for managing triggers, increasing self-esteem, and improving communication in your relationships!
