Attachment Styles and Love Languages in Light of the Pandemic
In today's episode, our hosts, Justin and Esther are joined by a good friend of Kean Sian, a psychology graduate from HELP University, Malaysia.
Kean has always been fascinated about psychological measures. We actually did three episodes together on personality tests for Tea Buddies. Today he will be discussing his views on attachment styles and love languages and how the pandemic altered his and his ex-partner's love expressions and needs and their attachment styles.
This episode marks Tea Buddies' 1st anniversary coinciding with the beginning of the spring season. On behalf of my team at Tea Buddies, I wish everyone a very happy Persian new year and thank you once again for listening to tea buddies.
