231. What We Get Wrong About Avoidant Attachment w/ Travis Ambrose

Dating Intentionally

About

I'm chatting with Travis Ambrose, an attachment-focused coach who specializes in helping people on the avoidant end of the spectrum heal and build healthier relationships. We're discussing everything from signs of avoidant attachment to the common mistakes anxious daters make that push avoidants away. Travis also shares his framework for knowing when a relationship is workable versus when it's time to walk away. We also tackle a dating dilemma: navigating a two-month relationship with someone who shows classic avoidant patterns.
