Ep|76: Secure the Love: Building Stronger Relationships with Julie Menanno

On this episode of From Mrs. to Ms., I’m joined by the incredible Julie Menanno—licensed marriage and family therapist, founder of The Secure Relationship Coaching, and Instagram powerhouse with over a million followers on @TheSecureRelationship. Julie has dedicated her career to helping couples strengthen their bonds through Emotionally Focused Therapy and secure attachment.

We dive deep into what inspired Julie to specialize in Attachment Theory and why secure attachment is the foundation for healthy relationships. She breaks down the key traits of secure attachment styles, how to identify them early in a relationship, and why they’re more beneficial than anxious or avoidant dynamics.

Julie also shares actionable advice for anyone feeling stuck in conflict or disconnection, offering hope for singles navigating modern dating challenges like hookup culture and dating apps. Whether you’re in a relationship or searching for love, Julie’s insights will help you reframe your approach to connection and create a stronger foundation for love.

Online dating? Oh, she’s got stories. From questionable bios to jaw-dropping conversations, Andrea swipes right on the chaos of the digital dating scene, sharing her most cringe-worthy moments and triumphs in a way that’ll have you laughing out loud (and maybe a little grateful you’re not in her shoes).

And when it comes to sex and intimacy after divorce? No topic is off-limits. From awkward encounters to steamy confessions, Andrea gets real about what it’s like to dive back into the dating pool and rediscover yourself along the way. Warning: these episodes can get spicy, so maybe keep the earbuds handy if you’re in public!

But it’s not just about the laughs. From Mrs. to Ms. is a celebration of resilience, reinvention, and the sheer joy of figuring it all out. Whether you’re freshly single, happily solo, or searching for love again, Andrea and her amazing lineup of guests will leave you feeling empowered, inspired, and entertained.
