Lecture: “Triggered: Attachment Styles & Your Inner Child” 👶

Speaker: Dr. Shannon Snapp, Psychology Professor, TEDx Speaker 🧠


Ever wonder why a simple text from your partner can completely hijack your nervous system? Why you go ghost when you're mad or latch on to someone like velcro? We will gather at a bar in SOMA to bypass the academic jargon and dive straight into the raw psychology of human connection.

Led by an acclaimed psychology professor and TEDx speaker, this high-impact talk strips away the textbook fluff to unpack the hidden architecture of your adult attachment style. You will discover how your childhood programming secretly drives your modern dating habits, and learn the exact neurobiology of what happens in your brain when you get emotionally triggered by the people closest to you.


P.S. This is a rare, unfiltered chance to catch a legendary university course that is notoriously impossible to get into—brought straight from a packed campus lecture hall to the bar stool. But in this version, you will learn how to identify your own relationship patterns, decode your partner's behavior, and finally understand how to soothe your inner child when your emotional alarms go off. Whether you are happily coupled, actively navigating the modern dating scene, or just trying to understand your own mind, come and finally answer the question "why are we all like this?!"
