I’m sharing 5 unexpected lessons my avoidant partner taught me that actually helped me feel safer, calmer, more confident, and more SECURE in love.
And yes... this episode is about the good parts of avoidants.
Because avoidants are not the villains here.
They are humans with a completely different survival strategy.
This isn’t an “avoidants are toxic” conversation.
It’s the episode that shows you the side no one talks about:
The parts of avoidants that make love gentle, grounding, freeing, magical…
The parts that can grow you in ways you never expected.
The parts your anxious brain might not see yet because fear is so loud.
If you’ve found yourself late-night googling things like:
“Why does my avoidant partner pull away after getting close?”
“How do avoidants show love if they don’t express it like I do?”
“Why do avoidants disappear then come back?”
This episode will give you answers but also a new perspective that feels like exhaling.
We’ll talk about how avoidants love differently, why space is not rejection, how to stop taking distance personally, and how understanding them can actually calm your nervous system instead of trigger it.
By the end, you’ll walk away with:
🤍 a softer view of avoidants
🤍 more empathy (for them and for you)
🤍 5 mindset shifts that bring REAL peace to your relationship
Not by abandoning yourself.
Not by shrinking.
But by seeing the relationship dynamic with truth instead of fear.
This episode gives you the perspective that finally lets the anxious-avoidant dynamic feel less like war and more like two humans trying to feel safe in very different ways.
If you’re tired of demonizing avoidants or battling them… and you’re ready to understand the GOOD they bring too… this one is going to land deeply.
Stay until the end.. I’ll give you simple steps to feel more secure today, without chasing or overthinking.
