Build Secure Love. Heal Attachment Patterns. Deepen your relationship with yourself and others.
Relationships don’t fall apart because people don’t care.
They unravel because nervous systems, attachment patterns, and old relational wounds take over — often beneath conscious awareness.
The Embodied Relationships Summit brings together leading voices in attachment, psychology, neuroscience, and embodied healing to explore how secure love is actually built — not through insight alone, but through practical tools for regulation, repair, and transforming relational dynamics.
This summit offers a grounded, compassionate, and practical roadmap for understanding why relationships get stuck — and how to move toward connection that is stable, emotionally safe, and sustainable, both internally and relationally.
ABOUT THE SUMMIT
This is not about “fixing” yourself or your partner.
It’s about understanding how attachment patterns form, how they get activated in real relationships, and how they shape the relationship you have with yourself as much as the ones you have with others — without abandoning yourself or blaming others.
Across live and on-demand sessions, you’ll learn how to:
Recognize anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment patterns as adaptive responses, not character flaws
Regulate emotional reactivity before it turns into conflict, withdrawal, or shutdown
Repair trust after rupture — in ways that actually restore safety
Build emotional accountability with yourself and with others, without self-erasure
Create relationships rooted in consistency, clarity, and secure connection
This summit bridges attachment theory, neuroscience, and embodied practice so change isn’t just understood — it’s felt, practiced, and integrated in how you relate day to day.
WHO THIS SUMMIT IS FOR
This summit is for you if:
You notice repeating patterns in dating, intimacy, or long-term relationships
You swing between closeness and distance, anxiety and withdrawal
Conflict escalates quickly — or gets avoided altogether
You’ve done therapy or personal growth work but still feel “stuck” relationally
You want secure love that supports self-trust, boundaries, and emotional presence — not over-functioning, self-abandonment, or shutdown
It’s also highly relevant for therapists, coaches, and practitioners seeking a deeper, embodied understanding of attachment dynamics, including how relational capacity develops over time.
All Embody Lab Members automatically have a reserved seat to these deep-dive learning experiences.

DAY ONE
Saturday, February 7th, 2026 from 10am - 4:15pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Sabrina Zohar
10am - 11am ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
From Anxiety to Security: Rewiring Attachment Patterns in Love
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
In this session, Sabrina explores how anxious and avoidant attachment patterns are formed — and how they show up in dating, conflict, and emotional closeness. Through an embodied and nervous-system–informed lens, participants learn to recognize subconscious relational habits that keep them stuck in fear, over-functioning, or emotional withdrawal. Sabrina offers practical tools for building self-trust, regulating attachment triggers, and creating relationships rooted in consistency, safety, and emotional availability. This session supports participants in shifting from survival-based relating toward secure, grounded connection — without abandoning themselves in the process.
Dr. Nicole LePera & Dr. Scott Lyons
11:15am - 12:15pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Reparenting the Inner Child in Relationships: Healing Attachment Wounds Together
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
Drawing from Reparenting the Inner Child: The New Science of Our Oldest Wounds and How to Heal Them, this session explores how early relational imprints shape adult attachment, conflict, and intimacy. Dr. Nicole LePera and Dr. Scott Lyons examine how unhealed childhood wounds surface in partnership — through reactivity, disconnection, control, or emotional shutdown. Integrating psychology, neuroscience, and somatic healing, participants learn how reparenting practices can support secure attachment, relational accountability, and nervous system regulation. This session offers a compassionate roadmap for healing old wounds while building conscious, emotionally safe relationships.
Dr. Chris Lee
2pm - 3pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
The Neuroscience of Secure Love: Regulating the Brain for Healthy Attachment
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
Secure relationships depend on a regulated brain and nervous system. In this session, Dr. Chris Lee explores how stress physiology, emotional reactivity, and cognitive overload shape attachment patterns and relational conflict. Drawing from neuroscience, biometrics, and mindfulness research, he examines how dysregulation impacts communication, trust, and emotional availability — often beneath conscious awareness. Participants learn practical, brain-based tools for increasing emotional resilience, supporting co-regulation, and creating greater relational safety. This session offers a grounded understanding of how secure love is built not just through insight, but through consistent nervous system regulation.
Dr. Sara Kuburic
3:15pm - 4:15pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
When Love Triggers Old Wounds: Attachment, Identity, and Emotional Responsibility
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
In this session, Dr. Sara Kuburic explores how attachment wounds intersect with identity, self-worth, and emotional responsibility in relationships. Participants examine how unmet childhood needs, shame, and fear of abandonment often become activated through intimacy and conflict. With clarity and depth, this talk supports participants in distinguishing between relational needs and emotional outsourcing. This session offers insight into building secure love through self-awareness, boundaries, and accountability — helping individuals move from reactive patterns toward conscious, emotionally mature connection.
DAY TWO
Sunday, February 8th, 2026 from 10am - 4:15pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Baya Voce
10am - 11am ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Repair After Rupture: The Tools That Restore Trust
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
When conflict happens, what determines whether couples grow closer or drift apart is not the rupture itself, but how repair unfolds. In this session, Baya Voce explores the art and science of relational repair — the moments after conflict where trust is either rebuilt or quietly eroded. Drawing from attachment theory, clinical practice, and emerging research in couples healing, Baya focuses on how to have repair conversations that create accountability, safety, and emotional reconnection. This session offers practical guidance for restoring trust, addressing unresolved harm, and rebuilding secure connection after relational rupture.
Vanessa Bennett
11:15am - 12:15pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Healing Codependency in Relationships
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
In this session, Vanessa Bennett explores how codependent patterns develop and show up in relationships through over-functioning, people-pleasing, and loss of self. Rather than framing these dynamics as pathology, she approaches them as adaptive relational strategies and offers practical tools for strengthening boundaries, restoring self-trust, and shifting toward mutual, secure connection without self-erasure.
Sheleana Aiyana and Ben Goresky
12:45am - 1:45pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Choosing Each Other Again: How Couples Navigate Change, Seasons and Identity
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
This session explores how long-term partnership evolves through major life transitions such as parenthood, healing, grief, ambition, and identity change. Sheleana and Ben share how couples can stay emotionally connected as they grow into new versions of themselves. Through somatic awareness, relational inquiry, and lived experience, participants learn how to move through disconnection, fear, and uncertainty without losing the bond. This session offers grounded tools for choosing one another with presence, honesty, and nervous system safety across changing seasons of life
Mark Groves
2pm - 3pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Unhooking from the Matrix
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
We are more connected than ever in human history, yet never more disconnected in the intimate relationships that shape our lives. We are inflamed — emotionally and physiologically — and the cost to our biology is immeasurable. Notifications and endless scrolling elevate cortisol, spike glucose, and fuel inflammation, placing our mental and metabolic health at a crossroads. Digital dementia, anxiety, depression, and insulin resistance are emerging as hidden consequences of our hyperconnected world. In this talk, we'll explore the surprising science of how technology drives inflammation and stress — and, most importantly, how love, alongside intentional practices, can help us reclaim balance, intimacy, and well-being in the digital age.
Cole Zesiger & Morgan Starr-Riestis
3:15pm - 4:15pm ET (U.S. Eastern Time)
Breaking Insecure Attachment Cycles: Regulating Reactivity & Creating Secure Love
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
Insecure attachment patterns often repeat despite insight, therapy, or good intentions. In this session, Cole Zesiger and Morgan Starr-Riestis explore why anxious and avoidant cycles persist — and how to interrupt them in real-life relationships. Blending attachment theory, somatic psychology, and practical coaching tools, they guide participants in recognizing attachment-driven reactivity, regulating emotional responses, and shifting habitual relational behaviors. This session offers grounded strategies for building self-trust, emotional consistency, and secure connection, supporting participants in creating healthier relationships without losing themselves.
ON-DEMAND SESSIONS
Dr. Jacob Ambrose
How Anxiety, Self-Esteem & ADHD Shape Attachment in Relationships
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
Attachment patterns don’t exist in isolation — they’re deeply influenced by anxiety, self-esteem, mood, and attention regulation. In this session, Dr. Jacob Ambrose explores how common mental health challenges like anxiety, depression, low self-worth, and ADHD impact communication, emotional availability, and relational security. Drawing from cognitive-behavioral and dynamic therapy approaches, he offers clear, practical insight into why certain patterns repeat in relationships and how to shift them. This session supports participants in understanding their inner world more accurately so they can show up with greater clarity, consistency, and emotional balance in connection.
Dené Logan
Embodying Interdepence
A 75-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
So much about our current models of love and partnership have conditioned us to love either from a space of codependency or hyper-independence.
Not only does this way of relating lead to a lack of relationship fulfillment over time, but ultimately can interfere with our ability to realize our full potential. During this 75 minute workshop, couples therapist Dené Logan will share some of the tools she’s found most effective in supporting the couples and individuals she works with in working towards a greater sense of interdependence relationships so that our relationships can serve as tools for self-actualization, rather than a place to escape our existential fears.
Amy Chan, Jillian Turecki, and Kai Cheng Thom
Embodying Love: Thriving in Dating and Relationships
A 60-MINUTE EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
This is a conversation we've all been waiting for as we bring together three world renowned experts in dating and relational coaching to help us heal and thrive in love.
