“It’s safer to pull back.”
But: This isn’t the whole truth. It’s a protective part, trying to shield you from the potential hurt.
Real healing happens when you get curious about this part, meet it with compassion, and show it that connection can be safe.
This is the work I guide my clients through, and it’s non-negotiable if you truly want to heal anxious attachment.
Do you notice an avoidant part show up when things get tough?
Love, Jen
