Have you ever ended a relationship, spent some time single, then started dating someone new, only to realise… you’re basically dating your ex all over again? In this episode of But Are You Happy, clinical psychologist Dr. Anastasia Hronis shares some uncomfortable truths about why we tend to fall into the same toxic relationship patterns, often driven by our attachment styles. You’ll also learn:

• What the four attachment styles really mean
• How to identify your own attachment style
• How to recognise red flags and develop self-awareness
• What defines a healthy relationship (and how to know what you want)
• Why we sometimes push away healthy love without realising it

Introducing I Never Told You This: Two People. One big reveal. A simple card deck with questions. Some are light-hearted, some deeper…and one that says ‘I Never Told You This’ - the chance for one person to share something they’ve never told the other before.

In the first episode of 'I Never Told You This', Mary and Martha Kalifatidis chat about their all-too-relatable experience of protectiveness and anxiety as parents.

Head to Medibank to learn more about the Family Roast card game that sparked the conversation.
