Fixing Broken Pickers: Andrea and Jessica's Journey Through Dysfunctional Dating

So let's talk about why adult children's pickers are so messed up.
Ever found yourself repeatedly drawn to the wrong type of partner? Andrea knows that struggle all too well, and in this episode of 'Adult Child', she dives into the world of broken picker syndrome. Sharing her own cringeworthy dating stories, Andrea reflects on how growing up in a dysfunctional family has shaped her romantic choices.
But she's not alone in this exploration—her best friend Jessica joins the conversation, bringing her own experiences and insights as a fellow survivor of broken picker syndrome. Jessica reveals how she managed to 'fix her picker' and start choosing healthier relationships. The episode isn't just a series of anecdotes; it digs deep into the root causes of these patterns, touching on codependency, complex trauma, and toxic shame.
Andrea and Jessica also highlight the importance of understanding attachment theory, which can be a game-changer in finding and maintaining healthy relationships. Whether you've struggled with your own 'picker' or are looking to support someone who has, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical advice for breaking free from the cycles of dysfunctional relationships.
