In this deeply insightful rerun episode of Mature Allure, Sherri O. sits down with attachment coach and author Chris Rackliffe to explore anxious attachment styles, emotional healing, forgiveness, inner child work, and nervous system regulation. Chris shares his own healing journey and explains how childhood experiences, trauma, and emotional invalidation can shape adult relationships and self-worth. Together, Sherri and Chris discuss why so many women in midlife feel emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, lonely, or stuck in survival mode — and most importantly, how to begin healing. This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating divorce, grief, relationship challenges, emotional burnout, loneliness, or a desire to reconnect with themselves after years of putting everyone else first.
