  Dating Securely After Loving an Anxious Attacher 10.09.2026 18мин

  In this episode, I’m talking about what it looks like to date securely after loving someone with anxious attachment. We’ll explore how an anxious relationship can shape the way you experience closeness, independence, reassurance, and even another person’s disappointment—and how those experiences can follow you into future relationships. I also unpack the difference between healthy relational needs and emotional overdependence, where avoidant patterns may need accountability too, and how to stop carrying old relationship fears into new connections. Because healing isn’t about finding someone who needs nothing from you—it’s learning how to create interdependence, where you can love someone, honor their needs, and still remain connected to yourself. If you’ve ever wondered, “Was I abandoning myself, or was intimacy simply asking me to stretch?” this episode will help you begin separating the two—and come back to the question: What Would Secure Me Do?® Learn about Personalized Attachment Coaching with Jessica here.

  The Avoidant Experience: Love, Numbness & Inner Conflict With Bilnita Armstead 29.03.2026 36мин

  In this episode, I sit down with Bilnita Armstead, a listener of the podcast, who shares her experience navigating a dismissive/fearful avoidant attachment style. We talk about how early relationship patterns, often learned from our parents, shaped her view of love and connection, and how getting hurt in relationships led her to become emotionally numb and avoidant. She opens up about the push-pull dynamic, feeling secure when single but deeply triggered in relationships, and the mental torment that can come with it—including overthinking, relationship OCD, and constantly questioning feelings. We also explore how things like intense butterflies, cheating as a coping mechanism, and black-and-white thinking played a role in her patterns. Most importantly, this conversation normalizes these experiences and highlights the shift into learning how to sit in the “gray space,” develop self-awareness, and begin showing yourself grace as you heal and move toward more secure ways of relating.
