Fearful avoidants often struggle to trust love fully—not because they don’t want it, but because their subconscious mind has absorbed painful stories from childhood and past relationships. In this episode, Thais Gibson breaks down the 5 most common lies fearful avoidants tell themselves about love, why these beliefs feel so real, and how to reprogram them for secure, lasting connection.

You’ll discover the hidden fears beneath these lies, how they silently sabotage relationships, and what practical tools you can use to recondition your nervous system and subconscious to open up to love without fear.

You’ll learn:

✅ The false beliefs fearful avoidants carry about being unworthy of love

✅ Why they expect abandonment and betrayal—even in healthy relationships

✅ How self-protection strategies become self-sabotage

✅ Tools to question and reframe these painful lies into empowering truths

✅ How nervous system regulation makes love feel safe again

✅ The key mindset shifts that unlock secure and fulfilling relationships
