LET'S TALK ATTACHMENTS

Jessica Da Silva is a licensed marriage and family therapist, attachment coach, and author who brings clinical expertise without the clinical coldness. LET'S TALK ATTACHMENTS runs monthly with 144 episodes in the catalog, mixing solo deep-dives with guest expert interviews. Each episode sits right around the 15-20 minute mark, making them digestible without feeling rushed. What makes Da Silva's approach stand out is her willingness to share her own attachment journey alongside the professional guidance. She talks about what it's like to recognize anxious patterns in yourself while also being the therapist helping others do the same work. That dual perspective gives the show an honesty that pure self-help content often lacks. Topics range from secure dating practices and emotional abandonment to understanding why insight alone doesn't create lasting change — you need embodied, consistent action. The show has earned a 4.7-star rating from 280 reviews, and listeners frequently mention how her warmth comes through even in solo episodes. Da Silva doesn't pretend healing is linear or easy, and she doesn't promise quick fixes. Instead, she walks you through the messy reality of shifting attachment patterns — the setbacks, the moments of clarity, the slow progress that eventually adds up. If you appreciate hearing from someone who's both studied the theory and lived through the work of changing their own patterns, this podcast strikes that balance well. It's grounded, practical, and refreshingly real about what attachment healing actually looks like day to day.
