Inside Out Podcast with Therapist & Mom Eden Hyder

Host Eden Hyder is joined by school counselor and educator, Melissa Hyder, to discuss how different attachment styles show up in students and how teachers can respond in ways that support connection, regulation, and learning.

Guest Christy Bauman and Eden discuss the intricate relationship between faith, mental health, and attachment through personal stories of depression, the loss of a child, and evolving beliefs. They consider how one's conception of God can change, particularly when influenced by attachment wounds.

In this episode, we explore how each Enneagram type may express secure or insecure attachment—through anxious, avoidant, or disorganized patterns. We’ll walk through all nine types, looking at their core motivations, relational stances, and what growth toward secure connection can look like.

Certified Gaming Disorder Therapist Jeremy Edge talks about the impact of screen use and how we connect and disconnect from the world around us in an increasingly tech infused world. We also unpack what healthy balance looks like for ourselves as adults and for our kids.

Eden jumps into the topic of parenting with a couple key notes: 1) that insecurely attached parents are at higher risk for parenting struggles which makes doing this attachment work yourself all the more impactful, and 2) that as parents, we don’t have to be perfect — that our imperfect parenting can actually benefit our children. She then gives examples of what a parent with each attachment style...

As adults, we have the bad habit of shutting down a child’s process, and our inner child is no exception. Eden takes us through the 3 dimensions of attuning to your inner and outer child.

Awareness, empathy, and responsiveness allow us as parents (to our children and ourselves) to offer care in a way t...
