The painful truth is… it often has less to do with your worth, and more to do with how much you are abandoning yourself in the relationship. Episode Summary In this episode, Thais Gibson explains what actually causes a Dismissive Avoidant Attachment Style to recognize and value someone in a relationship and why it begins with your relationship to yourself. You’ll learn why Avoidants tend to respect people who communicate boundaries clearly, maintain a strong sense of self, and are emotionally at peace with letting go when their needs are not being met. Thais also breaks down how core wounds around being unworthy, unlovable, or “not good enough” can lead to self-abandonment, people-pleasing, and overcompensating in relationships; along with practical steps to rebuild self-respect, strengthen self-identity, and stop outsourcing your worth to others. Key Takeaways ✔️ Dismissive Avoidant individuals respect strong boundaries and self-respect ✔️ Self-abandonment weakens your sense of identity and worth ✔️ People-pleasing often comes from core wounds of unworthiness ✔️ Clear standards and non-negotiables build healthier relationships ✔️ Authentic communication creates emotional clarity and respect ✔️ Strong self-identity reduces the need for external validation ✔️ Healing begins by honoring your own needs and boundaries Timestamps 00:00 – Why is This Person Not Seeing My Value? 00:38 – 1.

You may interpret distance as rejection, wondering what you did wrong or how to fix it.
