Episode Details

In this week's reflection episode, I discuss the reality of having a fearful-avoidant (disorganized) attachment style in friendships. I share my own experience and unpack the reason why I am stable/anxious romantically, but anxious/avoidant platonically. This episode is about facing the painful parts of ourselves so we can grow into better friends and better people.

This episode is more of a story than a structured explanation. As I talk through the experience, the deeper context and realizations unfold naturally along the way.

In this episode, I share:

• What fearful-avoidant (disorganized) attachment looks like in friendships
• Why I pushed friends away even when I cared about them deeply
• The shame of realizing I hurt someone I loved
• Questioning my sexuality because of emotional confusion in friendships
• Feeling misunderstood and carrying silent emotional pain
• Self-sabotage, guilt, and learning how to forgive myself
