Transcribe →128: the UGLY truth why you attract avoidant people, men, friends (they mirror you!)
Apr 700:32:42Tap to summarizeGrab here your SECURE WOMAN PROTOCOL to not freak out when he pulls away! If you keep ending up with emotionally unavailable partners… if you feel anxious when he pulls away, overthink every text, and wonder “why does this ALWAYS happen to me?”… this episode is going to feel a little confronting… and a lot empowering Little warning: DON'T blame ME.. blame your PAST. Because here’s the shift: It’s not just that you’re attracting avoidant partners. It’s that your nervous system is used to inconsistency… and calls it love. I know… 🤯 I used to be anxiously attached too. I was the one checking my phone, waiting for replies, feeling high when he was close… and crashing the moment he went distant. Hot and cold felt normal. Secure felt… boring. And that’s exactly why I kept attracting emotionally unavailable men. In this episode, we go deeper than surface-level dating advice. We look at your attachment style, your patterns, and the emotional blueprint you learned early on. Not to blame you. But to give you your power back 💪🏽✨ Because when you understand this… You stop asking “why is he like this?” And start seeing: “where am I doing this to myself?” 👀 We walk through a simple but powerful mirror exercise (grab your journal 📓) that shows you: ➞ where you might be emotionally unavailable to yourself ➞ where you’re inconsistent with your own needs and boundaries ➞ where you abandon yourself… and then chase him to fill that gap And THIS is the moment things start to change. Because anxious attachment isn’t something you’re stuck with. It’s something you can rewire. So you can finally stop chasing, stop overthinking… and start feeling calm, secure, and grounded in your relationships 🖤 If you’re tired of feeling like: “why do I always want the one who pulls away?” This is your episode. Press play. And let’s break that pattern… for real this time CHAPTER: 00:00 Why Anxious Attachment attracts the SAME avoidant people 01:35 Your AVOIDANT mirrors YOUR past 11:06 Your Partner and Trigger REVEALS your wounds (exercise)) 15:35 How shadow work REVEALS the truth anxious attachment does NOT want to hear 26:53 Why becoming securely attached will attract secure people DISCLAIMER: I'm not a therapist or doctor.

Transcribe →126: why do I keep being 🧲 🚩ATTRACTED to avoidant and EMOTIONALLY unavailable men
Mar 2400:44:26Tap to summarizeGrab here your SECURE WOMAN PROTOCOL to not freak out when he pulls away! Hands up if you have an anxious attachment and wonder… why do I keep being attracted to avoidant and emotionally unavailable men? Then this one’s for you.. …and it’s starting to feel like a pattern you can’t break 🖤✨ At first, it feels SO good. There’s chemistry. There’s excitement. There’s hope But then… He pulls away. He shuts down. He avoids emotional conversations. And you’re left in your head again… overthinking, waiting, hoping ⛈️ “Why do I always attract emotionally unavailable men?” In this episode of the anxious to secure podcast, we talk about what’s really going on beneath the surface. Because this isn’t random. And it’s not because you’re “too much.” If you have an anxious attachment style, you might feel things deeply, attach quickly, and crave closeness. And without realizing it… you can end up attracting avoidant partners who do the opposite. This anxious-avoidant dynamic can feel intense, addictive… and exhausting ❤️🩹 We break down why this happens: Maybe emotional distance feels familiar to your nervous system. Maybe a part of you feels safer with someone who can’t fully see you. Maybe you learned early on that love means chasing, proving, or waiting. And sometimes… you’re trying to get love from someone who can’t give it, hoping this time it will finally feel different. We also talk about something most people don’t want to hear… You might be emotionally unavailable to yourself too. Not because you’re doing something wrong… but because you were never taught how to sit with your feelings, soothe yourself, and feel safe on your own. So you reach for someone else to do it for you This episode will help you understand your patterns, your attachment style, and why avoidant, emotionally unavailable partners feel so hard to let go of. And more importantly… how to start shifting into a more secure way of loving Because you don’t need to become less emotional. You just need to feel safe with your emotions first 🫶 CHAPTERS: 00:00 Understanding Emotional Unavailability 00:57 What emotionally unavailable actually looks like 06:37 Attachment styles breakdown 27:30 5 Reasons You Attract Emotionally Unavailable Men FREE RESOURCES: Attachment Style QUIZ – Take the 3-min quiz to be 100% sure you're Anxiously Attached: 3 MIN QUIZ ✅ Anxious to Secure Checklist – Signs you're becoming securely attached 🚩🚩🚩10 Signs YOU are the Red Flag in your Relationship 🌀 11 Habits To Rewire Your SUBCONSCIOUS MIND Secure Love ★ 3 Steps ★ Stop being "NEEDY" GUIDE ☁️ The Worry-Free ☁️ Flow-Chart for relationship anxiety DISCLAIMER: I'm not a therapist or doctor.
