Description

You’re doing “the talk wrong and I’ll help you fix it.

First, think - an avoidant brain is not a secure brain. You can’t talk to it like it’s an emotionally healthy brain.

We think we have to soft talk an avoidant but they are really looking at you thinking - “ I got this exactly where I want it.”

I spoke kindly and softy for decades and that got me nothing but breadcrumbs and disrespect.

ps: these tips are only for the emotionally immature.


I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode.
