Dismissive avoidants are often seen as confident or aloof in relationships—but underneath that exterior, many silently struggle with deep feelings of insecurity. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally shut down in love, this episode is for you.

  • Why dismissive avoidants often feel "not good at relationships"

  • How unmet expectations trigger shame and emotional withdrawal

  • The internal dialogue that fuels insecurity—and how to rewire it

  • The link between emotional modeling and relationship confidence
