Can an Avoidant change ?

from Relationships the Good and the Messy! Hosted by Sally Kalan

Can an avoidant really change… or are you holding onto hope that’s keeping you stuck? It’s one of the biggest questions I get asked, and in this episode I’m giving you my honest thoughts. We’ll talk about why avoidant patterns develop, why self-awareness alone isn’t enough, and why real change requires far more than simply saying, “I know I push people away.” We’ll also explore: * Why so many people wait for someone to change. * The difference between insight and transformation. * Why consistency matters more than promises. * And the question I believe every person should ask before putting their life on hold for someone else. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering whether to keep waiting, hoping, or giving one more chance, this episode is for you. Because love isn’t built on potential… it’s built on what someone consistently brings into the relationship. 🤍 One-to-one Relationship & Breakup Recovery Coaching available worldwide.
