#343 - When Anxious Meets Avoidant

#343 - When Anxious Meets Avoidant

Why are people with anxious attachment styles and avoidant attachment styles drawn to each other? Can anxious-avoidant relationships work, and most importantly, can they be healthy and satisfying? Yes, they can. But the key is through your understanding of yourself, and of your partner. When you develop true understanding and empathy for your differences, you can create profound connection, and a genuinely secure and healing relationship for both of you. This episode is going to show you how. If you’re in an anxious-avoidant relationship, or have been in one before, I hope it helps you understand these dynamics from a new perspective, and empowers you to move toward greater connection and security. xoxo, Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby GrowingSelf.com P.S. — For more free advice about how to develop secure relationships (with yourself and others), check out my “healthy relationships” collection.
