This week we are unpacking Season 3, Episode 9 of Sex and the City — the one where Carrie cheats on Aidan with Mr. Big — and I am joined by psychologist, attachment theory expert, and host of the Let's Get Vulnerable Podcast, Dr. Morgan Anderson.
We get into why Carrie cannot resist Big even when she has everything she says she wants with Aidan, what the affair is actually about (hint: it is not Big), why Miranda's guilt is quietly destroying her own boundaries, what Charlotte's "all righty" engagement reveals about anxious attachment and self-abandonment, and what Samantha's storyline tells us about sexual self-worth and people-pleasing in the bedroom.
Dr. Morgan also breaks down the difference between following your heart and following your attachment style, repetition compulsion, the father wound, and why awareness alone is rarely enough to break the pattern.
This episode has lived rent free in my head since I first watched it. I think it might do the same to you.
