What is “the Ick” that sudden shift from attraction to disgust? Most people call it avoidant attachment, but that’s missing the point and it's definitely only a tiny percentage. In this Relationship Autopsy I break down the real psychology of the Ick: primal disgust, projection collapse, loss of erotic charge, unconscious memory triggers, shadow material, social conditioning, and more. Learn when the Ick is your body’s wisdom warning you, when it’s just a defense against intimacy, and how to tell the difference. This isn’t shallow dating advice it’s a scalpel-sharp deep dive into attraction, boundaries, and intuition. If you’ve ever had the Ick, this episode will finally make sense of it.

Soul Path Alchemy is a podcast exploring the deeper layers of human experience; through psychology, soul work, healing and truth. Each episode is a conversation between the seen and unseen, where emotional insight meets spiritual clarity. If something in this moved you, following and sharing helps it reach others on their own Soul Path. This podcast is for anyone drawn to depth, transformation, and the quiet remembering of who they really are. If this episode speaks to something in you, it may speak to someone else too. When you follow, share, or simply stay connected, it helps this work reach the people it’s meant for; gently, naturally, in the way real alignment always does.
