Are You Busy…or Are You Avoiding Yourself? (Ep #4 - Relationship Series)

In this episode of the Relationship Series, I’m exploring a relationship most people don’t even realize they’re in: their relationship with avoidance.Avoidance isn’t laziness or lack of discipline - it’s a protective strategy your nervous system learned long before you knew you were using it. And it shows up everywhere: staying busy, saying yes when your body is a no, pretending you’re fine, over-focusing on other people, or pushing down the truth because you’re afraid of what it might require you to feel or change.Awareness is powerful - but awareness without aligned action becomes another form of self-abandonment. Today, we’re talking about the signals your body sends before your mind catches up, the ways we override those signals, and what becomes possible when you finally stop running from yourself and choose one small honest action instead.We’ll end with a card pull and this week’s reflection questions:Reflection Questions:What am I currently avoiding feeling or acknowledging in my life?How do I tend to avoid myself - staying busy, saying yes, fixing others, numbing out, or pretending I’m fine?What truth have I been resisting because I’m afraid of what it might require?If I stopped judging my avoidance, what is one small action I could take to move toward myself instead of away?Take a breath, stay open, and let this episode land where it needs to.Support the show💌 Want more Pure Possibilities in your week?
