@coachbryanclark: DAY 1: Initiate a conversation and ask for feedback. For someone with avoidant patterns, asking your partner how you’ve hurt them, disappointed them, or made them feel disconnected can feel incredibly uncomfortable. And that’s exactly why we’re starting here. Building capacity isn’t about learning how to avoid discomfort. It’s about learning that you can experience discomfort without needing to escape it, defend yourself, or shut down. Your challenge today: Initiate a conversation with your partner and ask them: “What is something I do in our relationship that makes it harder for you to feel loved, safe, or connected to me?” And then just listen. Don’t explain. Don’t defend. Don’t turn it into a conversation about your intentions. Your only job today is to practice making room for someone else’s experience, even when hearing it brings up difficult feelings of your own. You don’t have to fix everything today. You just have to practice staying present. Capacity is built through practice, not avoidance. Day 1 of 7. Save this series and follow along as we practice becoming partners who can show up for the conversations we’ve spent so long avoiding. #AvoidantAttachment #AvoidantRecovery #relationships #relationshipadvice #fixitorfeelit
