  • #295: 3 Mistakes I made Dating as a Love Avoidant

    #295: 3 Mistakes I made Dating as a Love Avoidant
    Jun 3 2025

    When I was dating, I made a lot of mistakes related to how I presented in my intimacy disorders. This week, I'm talking about how my love avoidance showed up for me in my relationships.

    For me, my personal experience and how that connected to my religious education really amplified a lot of my avoidance which is also discussed.

    This episode will not span all of the ways love avoidance can show up in relationships as that as been discussed in previous episodes. But we hope these real experiences will help validate and give solace to the women who need to hear these stories represented.
