Looking at myself in a mirror

It's me, I'll admit it. I'm the one who has caused strain in previous romantic and family relationships because of my avoidant styles. This book absolutely nailed the experience of someone with that tendency. I felt like I was looking at a mirror sometimes and being forced to recognize some issues that I've never examined as fully before. Beginning to understand the pre-cursors of my avoidant behavior, instead of just noticing once they've already begun and perhaps caused issues in my relationships, is going to be such a game changer moving forward and I am excited to put what I've learned in this book into action.

A Game-Changer for Understanding Relationships!

This workbook helped me dive deep into my avoidant tendencies, which I didn’t fully understand until now. The exercises are simple but so insightful, and they really helped me reflect on my relationship patterns and triggers. It felt like having a personal guide to work through the tough stuff at my own pace. I’m already noticing positive changes in how I communicate and connect with others. If you’re struggling with avoidance and want to create more secure relationships, this book is a great resource!

Learning to let others in

I know my story is not uncommon these days but it is still hard to trust after being burned in the worst possible way. The loss of my son had caused me to avoid attachment as I could not shake the feeling of betrayal and loss. I have been seeing a therapist but wanted to do more to help myself and found this audiobook with attached workbook. I found this book to be extremely helpful. The workbook has been instrumental in my improvements on letting others in. I am so grateful for this book.

Really breaks down the avoidant attachment style

What I loved most about this audiobook is how it really breaks down the avoidant attachment style in a way that feels relatable and non-judgmental. Instead of making me feel bad about my past patterns of withdrawing from intimacy, it helped me understand why I react the way I do and, most importantly, how to change those reactions in a constructive way.

A personal guide to help you transform avoidance

What I really appreciated about this book is how it doesn’t make you feel like there’s something “wrong” with you for being avoidant. Instead, it gives you tools to work with your tendencies, helping you recognize triggers, communicate your needs, and eventually build secure, meaningful relationships—all while respecting your independence.

The 30-day structure makes it feel manageable, and the exercises are really practical. It’s not just theory; it’s full of actionable steps. The narrator's voice is calm and encouraging, making the whole process feel much more personal, like you’ve got a supportive coach in your corner.

If you’ve been wanting to break free from the cycle of avoiding emotional closeness but were unsure where to start, this workbook is a great companion. Highly recommend for anyone ready to make that change!
