Ever wonder what are examples of attention-seeking behavior? In this episode, your two favorite black therapists as we explore how what’s often labeled as “attention-seeking” may actually be a human need for connection, safety, and validation. Through an attachment lens, we unpack where these behaviors come from, how shame gets attached to them, and how we can respond, to ourselves and others, with curiosity instead of judgment.

This conversation invites listeners to soften their inner critic, deepen emotional awareness, and build healthier ways to ask for what they need.
